wouldn't it rip ya #2
daftbird
Some things annoy the hell out of you.This is another one.Wednesday afternoon- a mission to make a deposit at a local bank in the smallish town where i live.There's a sign on the door  which indicates that they are shut between 1 and 1.30 pm and i have arrived there at 25 past 1 according to my trusty black-banded watch.Decide to kill 5 mins by having a wander around a department store.Sitting right at the front of the CD rack,what do i see as i walk past?Neil Young's greatest hits-at the really good price of $15.00.Then i have to walk back down to the bank and go in and pay for neil young's greatest hits that i found on ebay for $11.00-but $18.00 with postage and all that crap.OH THAT WAS SO ANNOYING!!!!!And not only that-but it bothers my mind from the point of view of being one of those weird cyclic things as well-because the only reason i saw the neil young cd in the shop,was because i'd already found it on ebay.And why did i want it in the first place as I already have all the songs in some form or another.So i am annoyed with (in no particular order) ebay,the bank (for being shut),myself ,and neil young.

Mood - oh,a bit petulant when i think about the above
Music - 1979-smashing pumpkins
Edited - Never

That sort of thing just seems to happen! My boyfriend noticed some models (of a brand I collect) in KMart and there was 15% off. He forgot to mention it and I missed the sale. Then I went there a few days later, so decided to buy a little, cheaper one anyway. A few days after that I went to another KMart and they had 20% off toys. So I bought  several of the larger ones and one more little one! So, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but it ticks me off when it doesn't! Of course the model I really want wasn't there, but full price in another store, so I haven't bought that one yet...that 'rips' ya!
