Freight Forwarding.

No laptop for me.  My order was canceled by HP due to their company policy of not shipping to freight forwarding services.  Since I don't currently reside in the U.S., I need the package dropped off in Florida, where it will be sent to me via 4 Star Cargo to St. Maarten.  But since they won't allow the shipping method, I won't be able to get it until I go home.  I spoke to the lady and even attempted to find out about reordering it from the international HP site, but still no luck.

I guess I'll have until I get some in December to finally get the laptop of my dreams, which is still the HP Probook 5310m, in case you were wondering.  I figure the money and effort to find another route for it doesn't really make sense right now, since I'll be headed home in about 7 weeks anyways.  It will be a nice birthday present when I get home though.

I also attempted to finally get rid of the hair, but the salon was closed when I went.  So I grabbed some lunch at my place and I'll head back there in a bit to finally cut it.  I'm usually not a fan of a haircut 1-2 days after.  It feels very unnatural during that time.  I must not be alone in my thinking since they tell you to cut your hair a week before a big event like a wedding, so it must show.  The only time I like it is when the lady in Hollister cuts it.  It's the "supercuts" style place, but she does it better than anyone else I've had do it so far and I don't mind not having to pay a premium for a nice haircut, which means she gets a nice tip in return.
