As I arrived home from work today, I went to the mailbox like I always do.
Next to the ad from a dentist and my quarterly mutual fund statement, there
was an orange slip that said I had a package in the main office and I had
ten days to pick it up or it would be returned to the sender. I quickly
made my way to the main office where I found the closet where packages are
kept. After a brief search, I found my package which had my travel agent's
return address. As I ripped open the polypropylene envelope (those things
are tough to open!), I found a checkbook sized blue folder that says,
"Carnival" in gold letters. I then broke out into a dance in front of my
now jealous landlady to celebrate the arrival of my cruise documents! WOO
HOO! FINALLY! ONLY TWO MORE WEEKS TO GO!

The Carnival Triumph. The real nice part is that my travel agent upgraded
me from a 6A to a 8B.

Great surprise Tom! So excited for you. Now comes what I hate with
every cruise. It takes forever for the final 2 weeks to go by. Then
get onbaord & watch the times just shoot right by! SO UNFAIR! But
you know you had a great time on the great seas * that is what counts.
ENJOY! I await your report.

Too bad your landlady is jealous. Maybe next time you can take her (but
then who's left to guard the trailer park)?
