    Hi, all!
    I ordered a 2013 Mini Convertible (Highgate package) on April 19 and am going more than a little nuts waiting for its arrival. Based on the tracking info I could find, it's one either the "Integrity" or the "California Highway". They're both scheduled to arrive at Baltimore about Monday of next week. So there's really nothing I can do. I should proceed with my life and pay no attention to the car--there's no way it will be available to me in anything less than two weeks. So no point thinking about it. There's nothing I can do to change the schedule at this stage. Just relax.

    Yeah, right.

    So I figured I'd at least register on this forum.

    Cheers, all.

    Thanks, Jason!

    (BTW: I interviewed for a job, some years ago, at Austin College in Sherman, TX. Nice place. But I've never had to live through a summer there.)
