Default Friday 13th... Just my luck!!!

So today was the day that my massive 8x3x2 viv came for my Burmese. Huge viv.. So i went down to the shop to wait for all their vivs to arrive, and the delivery guy comes down, and agrees that it would be a good idea to just take the viv straight to my place... NOW.. heres the stupid part. While i was out, my OH was measurng the window for me. She text me the measurements just before me and the guy left the shop..... 36"x 23.5".... and the viv is 36"x24". HALF A DAMN INCH OFF!! So... the guy takes the viv appart for me peice by peice and we shove it though the window. The guy leaves and i start to build the viv. Took me ages, but did it in the end. Looks awesome and is HUGE. My Burmese will love it when he gets in there...

Oh yeah and about bad luck on this damn day, I got electricuted TWICE by my guitar amp this morning... But other than that ^^ I got my new retics and they're looking awesome. Ill take some pics some time soon.

Take care peeps!!!

All im saying is, things would have been alot easier if it just went through the window, and the fact that i was half an inch off, was kinda funny.

Sounds like something I would do order something large then think about the door size to get it in.
