Amazon and the loveliness of waiting

I ordered "Black & White" by Jackie Kessler & Caitlin Kittredge and "Street Magic" by Caitlin Kittredge today. Release date for both was 02.June and I have to wait 2-3 weeks for them. I don't understand what amazon.de does to deliver them. Perhaps they take a backpack and hitchhike to me or they use a homing pigeon. Or they sent a snail in their stock to get the books and now wait for her to come back. I can think of few other reasons but I hate it. I want the books now.
But I will think happy thoughts and I should enjoy my many moments of anticipation.
