Just in the nick of time

The statuette of Eris that I ordered was supposedly going to ship in August, and there ain't a lot more of August left, and I was getting worried.

So over the weekend I got into JList's site and checked the status of my order. And I noticed a small mistake in the shipping address. Oops! Lucky I checked!

So I popped over to their service page and left them a message about it. Sunday I got back a response saying it had been changed, and also that the product is in and they're preparing to ship. I haven't gotten a formal shipping notice yet, but I don't imaging it will be long.

This is the second time I've had to tell them to change things. The other time was when my credit card number changed. My fault, both times, or at least not their fault, and I feel a bit guilty troubling them. Of course that's silly; they want it to ship and arrive. But still, I feel like I've been a bad customer. Or at least not a perfect one.

And now, let's look around and see if there's anything else I can feel guilty about today, alright?

UPDATE: It's cold today and it looks like it might rain. Obviously my fault. I'M SORRY!!!

1 Keep going down that path and you'll turn into Thomas Covenant.  Don't do it!  Be callous!

3 Thomas Covenant totally deserves to feel guilt.  And also pain, agony, and death.  *cough*

4 No, the author does.  And I deserve a stupid award for sticking with it for six novels, despite how badly I was revolted by the first one. But back then, I was compelled to read to the end of anything I started.  Now I just put it down, and go, "Enh, why don't I watch Vandred again?"

5 I feel your pain, Ubu.  I suffered the same.  But I won't say more lest the off topic gods strike, so instead I'll say:

Cool, I can't wait to see some pics of the statue.

6 Oh yes, Eris is a much more attractive subject anyway.

7 @ubu: have you heard there's *another* Donaldson trilogy?
I loved the world. Hated Thomas.
