My streak of Happiness is continuing!

Sit down boys and girls. I've got a story to tell! The story is not finished but it still is a good one.

Rewind to last month. While I was in Iowa I was interviewed by a guy named Doug. He does an weekly show on an Internet Station based in Des Moines. the station actually has a studio and we went down there and met him. We were going to sit down for about 15 minutes and talk about my mission and story. The interview ended up lasting the entire show. He was blown away with my story and what I wanted to do.

Fast forward a week. I'm in Indiana spending time with my traveling companion's family. We were heading to one of his kids games and I had a great phone signal for the first time in a few days. So I call my parents and tell them how I am doing. My friend (John) has me hand the phone to him and asks them "Have you gotten a box in the mail? He continues, "Well, I can't tell you what it is cause Brian's sitting right next to me but be on the lookout." Score! I'm going to have a Surprise box waiting for me when I get back home!

My last stop before flying back home was Michigan and guess what? My friend there also knows about the box! I had a wonderful trip but when it is about to end you don't want it to. The box was therapeutic. It gave me a reason to look forward to returning home. Guess what? I land back in Atlanta and my parents tell me "Brian, we don't know what is in it but that box has not arrived yet." Talk about puncturing the air right out of my balloon.

For the next few days the bane of my existence is this stupid box. Well the mail comes and nothing. Meanwhile I am chatting with folks on Facebook and guess what? 9 out of 10 of them know about the box as well!

Finally I decide to just let it go. The box will come whenever it is good and ready.
