In effort to avoid 5 billion "I got my room noises!" threads, maybe we can keep them to one thread? We're not going to lock / delete other threads if they're made, but having those posts all in one place would be nice, plus it will save trees! And you love trees, don't you? Do it for the trees.

Ok.

So its 2am. I just got back from the Troubadour show, and immediately went in search of the CD I was told arrived today in the mail. After searching every room, I went back out to the mail box and found it sitting inside.

Now, here I am, holding it in my hands, pondering opening it. Of course I'll open it, but it seems so pure, sitting there in its plastic wrap. Ok, my fingers are going to pull on the convenient little red pull string-thing.

Ok? Ready?

Ok...plastic off. Boyd was right, it does look a lot different. Wow. Isn't crazy to think that just a couple months ago Boyd was up all hours of the night creating and tweaking this very image. Wowzers. I cant believe its finally here. The countdown has come to an end. It just doesnt make sense.

Maybe I should attempt at removing that pesky plastic tape at the top. Ok, again I'll direct myself to the little pull tab. Once again, here we go. Ok, sticky label off, in one piece even. Woo, I'm going to open it now!!! Exciting.

ITS OPEN! How magnificant. Now what do I do? Take out the CD...or the booklet. We'll save the CD for last. Booklet. Yay, I love it. I dont wan't to listen to the cd now. I'm too tired. But, I cant believe its finally here, sitting here, physically on my desk. Still, doesnt make sense. Who woulda thought this day would actually come.

I always said I'd take it to Will, and listen to it 'with him' but I still havent been able to go to his grave. I know he's with me here, and I can only imagine how thrilled he would have been to experienced all this.

This is wonderful.

Much love to everyone, Kimberly

Today I did something rare: Instead of plugging my iPod into the aux port on my car CD player as I drove to work, I actually used the CD. It was nice.

Today after school, I'm going to go down to Rhino Records and pick it up with my gift certificate. I'm sure that it will be just fantastic.

My copy came in the mail on Saturday from Tower records, and it has been on repeat.

I reserved another copy at my nearby Barnes and Noble to pick up later. This is a glorious day in the music universe.
