user williesgram on ebay had a listing for a lot of 6 pairs of Levi's and I won that auction! Instant stash! Which is especially exciting because of my ban on any other brand of jean right now. (Levis are just the best.) She sent me a nice message letting me know when they shipped and she is just super cool.
Receiving these made my week because I'm having my first "case problem" or whatever on Ebay. Apparently, in one spot in the description I called a pair of jeans "boyfriend" cut when the tag actually read "boy" cut. I don't know the difference- I have other jeans where the label reads boyfriend cut and they look the same as the boy cut. I don't know, but this girl is steamed. And even after I apologized profusely, said it was entirely my error for misreading the tag, and told her I'd refund her as soon as I got the jeans back, she was still really cold and mean to me. I'm trying not to take it personally but being a perfectionist I feel really bad about it, and she is succeeding in making me feel worse. When clients at my 9-5 do this I can write it off, but for some reason it is just so personal coming from an ebay customer.
I am very excited about this, though.
This album looks really kick ass. There have been two times where I've been utterly and completely and hopelessly lifelessly depressed- once when I first moved to Philadelphia and again recently. Both times this band has stepped in and given me hope. I know that they don't know it, I know that I don't matter personally to them and they've never met me, but they are my lifesavers. And this has a real old school, Tank Girl, Mad Max feel to it and I'm in love.
I still haven't been sewing or painting or anything- I'm really trying hard to pull myself out of this puddle. It's not fair, when I was just starting to be absolutely content, for this to have happened, and I am going to refuse to let it consume me. Not that it hasn't already a little, but it has to end. I cannot stop.
Since I have nothing to share with you that I've made, I'll give you a little pic I made while in drawing 102 one day to let my man know I care.
Oh what a sweet message to send your man! All is not lost - eBay 'roaches are everywhere - I've had my fair share of them this year. You have feelings and she has hurt them even more by refusing to acknowledge you are trying to repair the problem for her. Just let eBay know the error and what efforts you have made to rectify the issue and it'll be unlikely they'll give you a strike.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to hear that MCR have produced a work of art that has helped you to see the light again.
Take care:) xoxo
