Arghh Binge Delayed

When I order something on the Internet I want only two notifications, no more and no less.
  1. A message that my order has been received
  2. A message telling me when and where my order can be picked up.
Well, as it turns out the notification I received yesterday, was not that I could pick up my order, but that my order had now been shipped from the seller.

Who the fuck needs to know things like this?

I am certain the seller has some kind of amazing "Excellent Service Policy Manual" that they have paid half a fortune for that tells them to do this to keep the customers satisfied by keeping them appraised of the delivery at every stage along the way, but I most certainly am not interested.

The end result of this is that my binge watching of Downton Abbey has been delayed. *deep sigh*

Binge Watching Weekend

Today I was notified that my order of the complete series disc box of "Downton Abbey", the historical period drama television series created by Julian Fellowes and co-produced by Carnival Films and Masterpiece, arrives tomorrow.

I am going to do some serious binge watching this weekend after I pick it up! 

Don't tell me anything about it, because I haven't seen any of it yet. I don't know how I managed to avoid it, but I did.

Today at Dejton Abbey

As those of you who read this blog regularly already know, my brother Dej lives on the South West corner of the sim.

Besides having commandeered my English Bulldog Bilbo, who now refuses to leave Dej's side, my brother is also having fun playing with the three statues Tomais and I secretly placed in his home during the Second Pride Festival week.

As a major fan of the British costume drama television series "Downton Abbey", Dej has renamed his parcel "Dejton Abbey".

The cute clothed statue has been named Raoul and works as a kitchen help/bartender (and no doubt repeated one night stand).

The other two statues, who have lately been named Adolph and Nom, are a source of fun to us all, as Dej continues to use - and abuse (can one abuse a statue?) - them in various way and setting up entertaining scenes. Adolph is the blond guy and Nom is always on his knees.
