As the Cruising World Turns, part Trois

Ah today, Tuesday, the day that we were finally going to be able to lay our hands on the long-awaited auto-pilot part. So I jumped up and was like "ok, let's get goin, what do we have to do, go go go."
Todd didn't seem concerned and set off on a different boat project.
I stayed calm until around noon, but then let my concerns be known.
Our island agent brought the part after 3pm, which again, would have spurned me into action.
Todd, however, decided it was time for a drink and a cigarette. I went downstairs to get out of the smoke.

When the agent left Todd came in and said "you're probably going to be happier if you get to Panama. We aren't going to rush leaving." I said, "yep, you're right."

Within 15 minutes my new flight was booked. I leave tomorrow at 3pm. Unfortunately I have to overnight in Miami. I arrive in Panama on Thursday early afternoon.
