Icon8 I hate this.

Waiting for FedEx to arrive is the bane of my existence. Seriously. What should have arrived today is now going to come tomorrow. UGH. Incoming.

Congrats in advance! I know the feeling. . . I'm actually in the same situation as you right now, except not with an AP.

Nah the overnight wait is the best part for me! It's the closest I come to recreating Christmas morning as a child

Haha never really thought about it but this is the perfect description of how I feel when having a watch shipped. Toss and turn all night with anticipation. Tear into to box with packing peanuts flying everywhere then play with my toy for a week or two before putting it away and wanting a different/better toy.

OP...can't wait to see your AP!!!

As I walked into the office I was asked, did you forget to wear a watch today? To which I replied, maybe...

Thank you everyone for the wishes. It's the final countdown!
