Default After a month, I'm still waiting for my first (may also be "second") crossover

As I've posted earlier that I received a Cervantes Crossover I Englemann/EIR and have returned it for a Cervantes Crossover II for a wider string spacing at bridge. Everything is ready: guitar sent back to dealer, money paid. However, the cold weather prevented from meeting with my second love (the first love being the Crossover I that I dumped)

It looks like temp won't go up to above freezing until March. What a long wait

Hang in there. Maybe if you change your signature line the time will go faster and your weather will warm up.

It will more than worth the wait. With each passing cold day you are one day closer to receiving your guitar.

Default It is finally here, but not yet

Over more than 2 months, my second Cervantes Crossover finally arrived, but not yet. This morning it’s at local post office. However, I won’t be able to pick it up until after work get to post office to pick it. By then the post office will be closed. I can only go get it tomorrow.

Now I understand 24 hours are way longer than 2 months

Finally! Wow. What a patient man you are. Good things come to those who wait.

I picked up the box last evening after work and church meeting and just before the post office closed. The box is still unopened due to cold weather. The whole last night I was even more uncomfortable watching the brown cardboard box sitting inside the house but could not get my hands on it. OK, another 12 hours more

Sounds like you live in an igloo in the antarctic. You must have the patience of Job.
