My sourcemore page shows my order was placed 9/6. Tracking shows my order reached NY on 6/12 and was released a few hours later.
Mine was also ordered 9/6. The USPS label was created in Forest Park, Ga., which is very odd. I don't think I've ever had a package go through there. I won't be at all surprised if there is a major foul up headed my way. My last two orders from China more than a year ago did not go well at all.

:nah: back on some antidepressants for a few weeks....we'll see...:sleep: all I've done the past few days is sleep, which for an insomniac that's my telltale sign of depression, I mean I fight depression regularly but when it comes to I just can't function anymore, shutting down, it's time for some help. Not something that I like to admit but....it's gotten the best of me lately...

and on to my dumb moments with shadz today :lol:
my replacement nic came in, back to it's normal slightly off color, a little tint of yellow....
but after opening it.....my eye itched and instinctively rubbed my eye
that's one way to get your nic fix, 250mg undiluted nicotine into the eye
blindly carefully put the lid back on the nic and spent about 10 minutes in the bathroom flushing my eye out

White cake can be a tad on the heavy side.... I'm not familiar with the sponge cake flavor, so definitely take my advice as someone who has no clue whether it will be a viable option. Angel food cake is pretty nice though.. I know, I'm not helping lol.
Sounds like another order sometime soon then :lol:
IRL sponge and angel cakes are more like third cousins. Similar but notably different. I’ll read the notes on it and see if I can figure out why she picked that over others.

    I think it's rather weird my shipping labels are created in NJ.

    I grew up in Forest Park, went to Forest Park Sr High. Too funny.

    Morning Skeebo! How are the babies doing?

    I am glad you asked! They are getting big and beautiful, one in particular is exhibiting something known as the flowerback gene, so I am SUPER excited. The father of this one was hatched by a friend in California and all of it's clutch mates exhibited the flowerback gene and he (the father of my babies) did not show it. But judging by the hatchling below, he definitely has it.

    If you look closely between each section of shell (called scutes) you can see yellow streaks starting to radiate. It's pretty rare, especially in what I am producing. Eventually this shell may become totally yellow while maintaining the concentric markings.

    Apologies for being tedious.. lol It's just something that blows me away.. lol

    Been there. I used to be obsessively careful with nic until I realised I could spill some on my hands without anything bad happening. Until the day I forgot what I was doing and rubbed my eyes. One of those mistakes you don't make twice.

    My last China order did the same. Maybe they’re shipping containers of packages to the US where they get picked up by a “shipping partner” here. I had one with an American type name that shipped from Bessemer, Al (that’s a suburb of Birmingham sort of).

    Yes, on the shipping partner. It's DHL.
