That Christmas feeling

I got an email from my distributor this afternoon saying that my package containing the two propeller proto boards, prop plug and QTI sensor kit were sent by registered mail just then. They should be here by tomorrow morning or afternoon. I've been waiting for almost a month due budgetary restrictions from the financial department (read: my wife) and finally 1.5 week back ordering time at the distributor. I'm so bloody excited about getting my new toys, I feel like a small kid who can't wait for the night to go by so he can get his presents on Christmas morning. All good things come to those who wait, I guess [noparse]:)[/noparse]
One board will be retrofitted to the Boe-Bot I already have and the other for my upcoming Prop Powered Mini-Sumo project. I've already decided on a good awe-inspiring name: Black Death as it will be painted black (obviously). Pink or Yellow Death just didn't sound as catchy. If someone has a better name for a black mini-sumo, I'm all ears.
Is it tomorrow yet?
How about now?
Gr,

How about as the subtitle, "the plague." Then add a little neon green to the paint scheme per the attached picture (which is Yersinia pestis seen at 2000x magnification. This bacterium, carried and spread by fleas, is the cause of the various forms of the disease plague)...
Mightor was sleeping all snug in his bed, while visions of propellers danced in his head...
