reevaluate

tiamatladyOK, after shopping therapy (in which I decided ALL people are assholes, and noone can drive and/or push a cart) and Thai food, and SOME Buffy, although thanks to tape snafus during my UK excursion provide me with missing episodes, I think I get it tho, and what I'm seeing isn't good, the point of that is I feel better, not so weepy. But it seems that every once in a while I get something demanding yet another part of my stretched thin attentions, this time from am Amazon buyer who expressed interest in some damaged books before I went to London. I said I'd take pictures of the damage, since he wants "pristine" books, but, obviously, forgot about it since it wasn't a priority. I'm sorry I'm sure this guy is going to say "thanks but no thanks" there's a couple of tears in the dustcovers. Anyway I get an nice email, except for the line "What's going on?" Now, dude, this ISN"T my business, if I think I'm putting too much time into this, and it's becoming a pain, I can KEEP the damn books, or give them to Morgan Memorial! I don't need an attitude from a geek, thanks. I understand the desire to have a "nice" collection, but I already DESCRIBED the damage in DETAIL. This is just like the woman who bought "neverwhere" for 7.50, then complained because it wasn't a "first" edition, and my price was too high, except she did it through Amazon feedback, instead of bringing it to me. I keep meaning to go give her crappy feedback saying "You bought a $20 book for 7.50 and you have the NERVE to complain because you DIDN'T get to screw a newbie by getting a bargain expensive book???" Hey, that sounds pretty good! I'm so irritated by that. if I want a collector's item I pay for it, or do my research, not just try and screw someone. Well , she's now stuck with a "second rate" book, because I'll be DAMNED if I'll consider a refund now.
*deep breath*
And people wonder why I'm stressed.
I need to take tomorrow, go to my client, go to the movie, go to ManRay, and deal with everything else One Thing At A Time, over Thursday and Friday. I can't be a miracle worker. My goal tho, is to be free of this stuff by Saturday afternoon. I intend on relaxing Saturday night, so I won't be forced to leave a party I'm looking forward too, instead of killing someone due to my mood. The INSTANT I think my mood might be an issue, I'm out of there, I love you guys, and I don't want anything to change, even if it means I stay five minutes and leave rather than ruin a good time. And the brunch on Sunday, I really want to sit back and enjoy that.
OK I'm cold and tired, I have to throw some things into a bag for ManRay, although I may do that tomorrow as part of my "dressing" so to make sure I wear the right pants, and pack the right gear. Hmmm good idea, sleep now!
