I am not Invited yet!

I am going crazy. The event occurred on Jun 28 and the celebrations continue (they better). I can understand not being the first to be invited to join. But it is close to five days of ongoing celebrations and I am still waiting. It hurts! Oh, and I am waiting for Google+ invite. Over the last five or so days, I played with my luck being very good with anything Google. But hey I am entitled to one. Am I not? With that thought I worked a strategy. I requested an invite from each of my Google addresses. Then I asked a good friend of mine on Buzz (whom I have not met in person yet) to share an invite if she gets it before me. I suggested to my daughter, who is visiting India, to request one from her address - and I also told her that they will 'release' more invitations likely to IP addresses from different countries (my daughter goes 'dad tell me something new. I have already requested, like on 29th and you are telling me this 2 days later!). Also a good friend put it on her status on Facebook (OOPS) saying she received the invite and I hurried to be the first one to comment "Congratulation". My ulterior motive, however, was that since I was the first to comment and that too within seconds of her "status update" that she will spare an invitation!  Hello, I am still waiting. Then, I also thought, these invitations come late at night - so these nights I am checking often on my Android phone for a notification of new email. But no.Not the one I am waiting for. I will wait. And I know, I am not the only one. Yet, it is not comforting. Let the celebrations continue, for ever!
