    I was just trying to get a read on how it might all play out. I'll update!
    Oh, for sure they make you wait 4 weeks, I think.

    That's probably based on the fact that a lot of Marketplace people mail out items via Media Mail. Here in the US, that can easily take 4 weeks to reach a person.

    Here we go:

    Unreceived Orders

    If you paid for an order using Amazon.com, and the estimated delivery date passes, you have the right to be concerned. Sellers are responsible for communicating with you and for correcting any problems that might arise with lost shipments, damaged items, or other mishaps. If an Amazon Marketplace seller or Merchant fails to deliver, you may be eligible for reimbursement under the Amazon.com A-to-z Guarantee. (There are some exceptions, so please do take a moment to read more.)
    So it might be okay!

    Unfortunately, it's that line about "There are some exceptions" that makes me wonder.

    Good luck, though, Eric.

    I've never had problems with a Marketplace sale, but I have had one book take forever to reach me.

    Cool beans! I hope you figure it out soon.

    Media Mail totally sucks, one time I bought a book on amazon that took 2 months (65 days to be exact) to get to me. Fuck media mail, I don't care how cheap it is, I won't use it.

    I got some demolition work to do this week coming up, Ann. I'll let you use a chainsaw.

    Giving me a chainsaw could be a dangerous proposition.

    Come on down! I've got plenty for you to do. And I would love to have a chainsaw. Power tools do things for me

    Giving me a chainsaw would be an epic disaster.

    Things would be more convenient for me if other people enjoyed staying up until 4:00am and waking up at 12:00pm as much as I do.
    I had my infatuations, but we both know in our hearts who is the sole love of my short, bright life.

    I landed a new job. Same type of work (support services in a home) but in a different home. Still full time nights (7 nights per 2 week pay period) plus roughly 60 day hours per pay, but I'm hoping the home will be less stresful. I also get every Friday and Saturday off which is something my wife will like. It used to be "7 nights on, 7 nights off, when I'm home with our daughter, she's at work, and when we're home together I'm passed out cold" but this should make things better. Mia thrives when we're both home and that's one of the reasons I needed to make this happen. Also, a little more money>>> hello Mr.Betts and Mr.eBay

    I have an interview for a job tomorrow that sounds like it has my name written all over it.

    Cross your fingers for me!
