did we win yet?

My mom loves eBay.

A lot.

She keeps calling, just to check and see if we’ve “won” yet—I tried explaining that technically it’s not really about winning, per se, seeing as how we have to pay and all that. She doesn’t care—she just wants us to win.

It’s hysterical, lol.

  2. It is winning, against blind capitalism and big corporations. It’s all about the small David in each of us beating the consumerism Goliath senseless!

    Sorry. Got a bit carried away there, didn’t I.
