today.

I'm sitting here staring at the computer screen wondering what to do next. It's not like I don't have a million images to edit, a book to finish writing, or pee to scrub from the crevice of where the toilet meets the travertine (Seriously boys, can't you get it in the bowl?). But, all I can think about is how much I loathe Amazon at this exact moment. And, if Amazon were a person I'd sucker punch him.


Dear Amazon,

I hate you. Everybody in the world has a copy of the beloved Mockingjay. Everybody, that is, except ME! ME ME ME ME ME! Where the devil is mine? Amazon, how could thou forsake me? Don't I spend gobs of money (thank you, uncle Mastercard) on your black hole of commercialism site? And this is how you repay me? No book.
Nothing.
Nada.

That's the last time I pre-order a book from you. That's right. You heard me.

You, dear Amazon, ARE DEAD TO ME.

luv, erin

Erin, You make my day brighter.

Stacey said...

Oh Erin! I know how you feel. I had to borrow someone else's copy rather than read my own cause mine from B&N online isn't here yet either!

Hugs!

tammy said...

Yes. That turned out to be rather a sucky idea for me as well.

Cheeseboy said...

I got my copy of Mockingjay from the library like a week ago.

Kayleen said...

I hear ya. I pre-ordered the book and it still hasn't come. Boo Amazon!

JoMamma said...

That sucks. When my copie comes in at the library I'll let you borrow it. I've moved from 89 to 67 in the list of holds. We could race to see who gets it first.

Shari said...

I sooooo feel your pain.

Ugh, sorry! I'm curious to see what you think of it. Hopefully you get it soon!
