I was the same way. I am a patient person but I still checked my email constantly for updates.
 
It is a tough wait, especially Stage 5! Geek

Thumbs%20Down  I was sick during my ordering process so for a few days I really didn't care about anything and that helped - I don't suggest you get yourself sick but try to occupy your time LOL  before you know it, it will be home and you'll be Confused

Stage 5 is the killer. We understand your pain. Stage 5 is the trial-by-fire that we all endure to get into this brotherhood. It's like the hazing you go through to get into a fraternity. Hang in there W! Angry
