My Precioussss.....

I've got an XBox 360 again.

I was tracking the package online, and when the notice popped up that they couldn't deliver because they needed a signature, I nearly freaked the hell out.

Then I realized that they would try to deliver the next day, when there would AGAIN be no one home to sign for it. THEN I freaked the hell out.

A quick call to UPS, a short conversation with a robot, and I diverted my package to a Customer Service Center, where I could pick it up between 6:30 and 8:00 pm. This was in a nearby suburb that I am NOT familiar with, and after tearing around frantically for a half an hour, I finally pulled up to the place at 7:50.

But I got it. It's hooked up. I redeemed the free month of XBox Live they gave me, downloaded the new COD4 maps, and played through the first level of R6V2.

So I'm back. Permission to get my ass shot off, sir?

Stage Two Complete

After a mere 9 days, XBox.com has indicated that my XBox 360 has been shipped back to me. If it takes as long to get back here as it took to get there in the first place, that means I should receive it in another 8 days.

Not a moment too soon.

Stage One Complete

My XBox has been officially received by the XBox repair center.

That didn't take TOO long, when you consider that it had to go via eastern Oregon, Salt Lake City, and Colorado.

Now begins the long wait.....
