Dear Dorso,
I went to great lenghts to register for ACEN. I had filled out the info online a while back, and then kept putting off the whole printing it and mailing it in part of the procedure (keep in mind I dont have a printer). I for some reason had it in my head that the deadline was April 15th. Sunday night I was online and went to the site just to double check myself. Needless to say I found that the deadline was the 9th of this month. I was panic strickin...I called badrew to see if he would let me use his printer to print the form. Unfortunately he told me that he was stuck at work until monday night. Though he did mention kinkos which I had not thought of. I raced down to kinkos on US 31 only to find that they had just closed. My heart was sad, for I didnt want to fail you once again. I called badrew back (tech support) and he did a quick intrenet search and called me back, informed me that the kinkos in caselton was open 24 hours a day. I drove ALL THE WAY to caselton to print the goddamn form out. Then drove back to Southport Rd. in order to put a stamp on it and stick it in the mail.
Now something you need to understand is that I was rather drunk the whole time I am doing all of this running around. On monday (yesterday) I noticed that the date was April 10th, it then dawned on me that the website had said the envelope had to be post marked by april 9th, which was a Sunday therefore it would be impossible for this to have happen seeing as how I had dropped the envelope in a mail box at Wallgreens at 11:30pm Sunday night. Once again my heart was sad. I was just hoping that maybe they would see mine and decide to accept it late lol..well at this point I had figured that once again, I had failed miserably. To my suprise I recieved an email informing me that they were extending the deadline a few days due to being retards and creating the deadline on a sunday. So I just wanted to let you know, I am registered, and all is well.
I would have never heard the end of this shit....
