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.
