This looks like a good opportunity to do my best CathyCA impersonation.

No one else is online, so I have a great opportunity to string a bunch of consecutive posts.

Now, go to BestBuy (on sale for $1199) or order online? :-?
Ahh, the age old question, instant or delayed gratification? And how much is it worth?

I decided, for space reasons, to put the new mattress in my room and the old mattress in the guest room.

Hmmm...where is 17th Street? I ask because there are a lot of on-line retailers that operate out of NYC electronics stores. And they don't traditionally have the best reputations.

The new mattress is queen; my other mattress is full.

NYC. A friend recommended them, but I think I like Best Buy just because I know them. And I can get the camera sooner. :D

If he keeps up this pace, Sue, BONES and colchar are in his passing range today, too. ;)

Hey, I have an excuse for not posting lately. Don't I get some kind of free pass or something?

Sheesh...

congrats anyway...
Isn't that sort of like dissing a Carnegie Deli pastrami, but supporting a Piggly-Wiggly pastrami? /:)
Honestly, I never looked at the post number, so thanks for pointing it out. And honestly #2, I was very disappointed in the wheat beer - my comment was I'd never had one and the bar tender game me the sample, and, well, I was disappointed in it. Don't know what it was.

Good analogy Lavabe! :ymapplause:
