I could write an entire blog about my experience this morning standing in line at a Big Lots waiting for a no-brand-name tablet that was going on sale. And I wouldn't write one bad word about Big Lots - but plenty about people in general, people in line, and humanity.
And most people were perfectly nice. But the ugly ones, they were way too ugly for an $80 no-name tablet.
Which I didn't get.
But by the time MyFella, Jamie & I had finished breakfast, we decided that what I really want is a Kindle anyway.
MyFella, "No, that's not enough power for you. You want to be able to run a spaceship."
Me, "No, no, that'll be my new laptop. The Kindle is just to look up things on imdb while I'm watching t.v. And imagine how cool I'll look reading books on the couch with my legs pulled up under me, and my new Kindle in my hands."
So the Kindle is coming, and I'm kind of excited. And no weird people at Big Lots.*
*which remains one of my all time favorite stores. it's the other customers I don't like.
