excitedOr rather, at my parents'.
My dad is on the phone right now talking to me as he goes through the box.
He's mocking me.
My father is evil.
I have to wait until
lilymc returns with the car before I can get it! *whimper*EVIL BASTARD OVER THE PHONE EDIT:
DAD: "Well. This is a very nice box."
ME: "Open the box."
DAD: "There seems to be a packing slip on the top. Or is this the top?"
ME: "Open the box."
DAD: "It says 'Congratulations on your pur-something of you brand-new Gate-something com-something."
ME: "OPEN THE BOX."
DAD: *opens the box* "Oooh. Shiny." *rustling of packaging materials*
ME: "Well?"
DAD: (more enthusiastically) "Ooh. SHINY."
ME: "I just want you to know that I hate you."
DAD: "You shouldn't talk like that to people who have your Precious in their posession."
ME: "And a little bit more."
DAD: "Shouldn't you be grovelling or something?"
ME: "You do remember that Frodo almost DIES, right?"
DAD: *more rustling noises and evil laughter*
