Welcome aboard Beano!
While you are waiting for your scope, you should go to your local bookshop and pick up a copy of "Astronomy 2007". You'll get it for under $25.
It is THE year book for the amateur astronomer. It contains some very good basic sky maps, and a day by day, month by month ephemeris of what is happening in the night sky.
