Amazon and Computer Problems
So, I managed to make a good deal with myself. Even without the Super Save Shipping I had been able to get everything I wanted that was newer. I was going to hold off on somethings and then I decided to turn around and do SSS. Which meant I managed to cut out more of the less expensive things while retaining my two expensive items at the cost of the time in which I shall be receiving the items. It is rather irritating checking every five hours or so and finding that my stuff still hasn’t moved. But I’m trying very hard to be patient. It’s worth it, I keep telling myself. Of course, I freak out about how much I’ve spent and then must sit down and remind myself that I’ve still got over $200 left to spend with other gift cards and money/checks. So, I’m pretty pleased with my bargaining.
I’ll have to write down a list of what I’m interested in getting at Borders before I go. Basically writing down what I still need to catch up with one series and random stuff that I’d like to have. With the order I placed yesterday, I bought the three books I was missing from one series to complete that, caught up and bought the beginnings of other series I’ve been lagging behind or have been wanting for a while. And I bought myself two good box set seasons. Though still sad that I couldn’t get my beloved Ronin Warriors, my displeasure was set aside when I received my package from my Aunt this afternoon. I’m halfway through the four seasons of Lois & Clark and I’ve got the first book of The Wallflower, which I’ve been meaning to buy for a couple of weeks now. So, I was extremely happy!!!
Dad took my PC downstairs to re-stage it yesterday, fortunately, it was working fine for him. I got on it this evening and it’s back to crap again. So I’ll go downstairs in a moment to complain about just how frustrating it’s getting.
Now, I want to sit back, hole myself up in my room for a couple of days and watch Season 2 of L&C while hoping Amazon is merciful and sends me my stuff ASAP.
