There was a CD that was recently released that I wanted. When I came across advertising for stores that sell CDs, I’d scan for it being on sale. I saw a copy on eBay, so I put what I really thought was a low bid on it. I figured that if it came up, great. If not, I could keep waiting. Yesterday, I was at Best Buy, getting Michelle her Mother’s Day present, and happened to see a copy. Forgetting about the ebay auction (or already discounting it as lost) I picked up a copy there too.
Of course, as soon as I brought home the copy I bought in the store, I had to rip open the package and start listening too it. I’m not even sure if I got to the second track before I had to turn it off and go do something else.
Of course, now that I have a copy (in an open package that I can return) I find out that my lowball auction offer wound up winning, and it is arriving in the mail in a few days.
Do any of my friends or family who read this have a want of a copy of The Odd Couple by Gnarls Barkley?
