No package yet but it is closer-only about 20 miles away now. I don't think it will arrive today. I tried to go to work but got stuck on my street. Took 1 1/2 hours to get unstuck. My package can wait til it's safe for UPS to deliver it.

The plow came through here only a few minutes before the UPS truck did, so I think I got lucky. As for waiting for it to be safe for UPS to deliver, I am in complete agreement.
Wishing you an afternoon of rest after your morning ordeal!

@blackbird Yes, it arrived! I'm so happy.
I like the grey color and now I'm test packing where I put what. Tomorrow it will be my EDC, because my Ristretto is too small, when I also need to carry something to drink and eat and all my learning materials.
First impression of the Freudian Slip is also really good. At home, I'm using a magnetic hook, so I can hang the FS on the metal parts of my desk. I will see, if this also works out in other rooms/offices.
Long story short, I'm very happy and I'm still trying what works out best.

Tracking was showing out for delivery all day but just now updated with another delay. The anticipation just keeps building. In addition to refreshing UPS tracking all day I was following an ebay sale for a Nordic PCSB with strap. I was high bidder up til last 30 seconds when it jumped from $52 to $152.50. Yikes! I would have loved the Nordic bag but I'm sure my Iberian one will be just lovely. Hopefully it arrives tomorrow before more snow on Thursday.

You could pass it with researching your bag to come here. There are so many posts about the Synapse 25 with so many good tips, you might be find, that this week sort of flies by.

I pull another trigger - second of the Year 2015. I couldn't believe myself, as this is only February. I seriously hope there is no more surpise from Tom Bihn or our fellow Forumers here. At least until middle of this year. I had drew up annual budget for Tom Bihn and such purchase, and I strive to meet this budget - no matter what!Solar/Yellow: A45 Navy, CP Black, SA Black, SCB
Steel/Grey: UMP Steel 400d, PU Coyote, DLBC, PCSB, TC
Olive/Green: A30NWS, SCBCanyon, SKIsland
Mars Red/Red: SENordic, SKCanyon, DLBCCanyon, SCBDawn

I forgot the excitement of placing an order.... even though it is small..... I am still considering the night flight

TBAS-ing for my Grey/Wasabi S25 and Steel/Wasabi Pilot. (I don't know what it is about the grey & green combi that makes me like it so much!) I also have a Grey DLBC on backorder and the NFTD packing cubes. I really like the Forest/UV NFTD, BTW-- it had its first outing as a kit bag for a particularly nail-biting competition last weekend and did a great job of holding refreshments, stationery, medication and other essentials, not the mention the gorgeous Forest/UV combo. (The competing team's coach carried refreshments in plastic bags that were about to break-- oops.) It will be traveling with me during Chinese New Year next.
Currently wondering if my partner should get a A45 or Tristar for an upcoming 10-day trip to DC and, if so, in what colour. (So glad we don't travel often. The TB bill would be *enormous* if that was the case!)
