::eyes gifts under the tree::
Dec. 25th, 2004 10:53 amYeah, so, I know the Wonder Woman season 1 is under there (caught mom) at Hastings yesterday) and some socks...dunno what else...there's another box, too, dunno what it is, though...Won't know until we open gifts later (we're bringing my grandmother out to the house, not sure how well that's going to go...)
And...gifts from people online and a mother who's a probation officer don't necessarily go over well...
::UPS leaves box wednesday night::
"Ooo...James sent me something"
"James?"
"A friend of mine...he's also the retailer I've been getting most of my comics from the last couple of years."
"How old is he? Where does he live?"(etc)
"Uhm...around my age, Virginia I think."(etc)
::random nervous, "internet is full of evil stalkers" mutterings/fears::
"He's had my address for about two years, you know."
"Oh well, I guess if he hasn't come along and kidnapped you yet..."
::insert massive eye rolling on my part::
One day, it'll dawn on her that, via ebay, probably 350+ people, the majority men, have my address...At which point, I'll probably lose all computer access 'til I move out.
Probably a good thing that she wasn't home when the mailman dropped off Shannon's gift the next day...
And...according to midtown(can't believethe list is actually up today) i have 5 comics and 8 mangas coming out this week...most of the mangas are probably in the stuff at Waldenbooks that they hadn't unpacked yet...Not that I need the mangas, as I've just massively taken advantage of milehigh's 50% off tpbs sale(more than undoing any progress I've made in the TBR stacks)
