[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Guess where ND and I are? Bet you can. We've been here an hour. They've sold out of the AC we need, the one that actually fits the hole they installers cut (badly) in my wall. Now they're calling around to all the other local stores, but they're not sure if they can find one.

There may be blood shortly.

Don't go for blood, Kristin. Go for money. Lots of it. And labor. They should perhaps redo the whole wall with a hole that fits the best model available, which they provide for free. Seriously.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Ok, if I'm bidding on something minor, it is not really sniping if they out bid me 45 minutes before the close of the auction while I am actually paying attention, is it? Also, would it be evil of me to wait until 5 minutes before the close to try bidding again?

Talking about something that started at 99 cents, and has now gone up to $4ish. Woowoo crystal thingy.

On the contrary, that is exactly what you should do.

Thank you for the encouragement. The strategy succeeded. Of course, now how do I treat my eBay addiction. I wantwantwantwant to bid on more and more items. I know, I'll fight addiction with addiction: I'll start drinking instead. Or? Gambling.

You are asking the wrong person. Years ago, I decided that the best way to cope with my Dad dying in the hospital was to complete my revised edition Magic card set on eBay. I had to go cold turkey.

That's rough. All of it.

Well, here is to sane spending habits for both of us whenever crises come our way.

It wasn't so much the money as the obsessiveness of it. But I'm a completist, so it goes with the territory.

Poor Kristin! This is just ridiculous!

I skipped. Sorry, loves, but I've barely got computer time right now with the no laptop thing. How is everyone?

I'm trying to do math, but way too tired and can't think. It's no fun.
