Eventually, Amazon.com is going to kill me. And my corpse will be discovered beneath a hideously large stack of television show dvd sets.

That works for you, huh? I have a feeling that the Wish List would just taunt me with its wish listiness. And then I'd order anyway. Because I don't possess anything that resembles self-control.

So far, so good. I've only ordered two things from Amazon in the past couple of months. This is not typical. I will be ordering Veronica Mars Season 2 and also Neil Young's new CD Living With War, but that will be in August.

It's the CDs that might kill me, since I can actually listen to them at work so they don't stack up like the books and DVDs do. But I'm resisting them.

My wish list is so huge, I had to start another and then another. *g* I put stuff I *really* want in my shopping cart and then put it in "save for later." I have to admit, I'm probably going to drown in DVD sets, too. *g*

P.S. Amazon loves me so much that I signed up for Amazon Prime. I figured I spent WAY more than the cost of that just for shipping at Christmas alone, so now I get 2nd Day Air for everything and don't pay extra for shipping (no shipping costs with 2nd Day Air, beyond the cost of Amazon Prime), and next-day is only $3.99. (I had to do the latter a couple of times for my daughter when she needed a book for a class at college and none of her local bookstores had them.)

It's a disease. *g*

And a conspiracy. It's a conspiratorial disease! They just make it so....damn....easy. Amazon was designed especially for people with poor impulse control. Like me.

lol Yep. Too true. Actually, I have an easier time resisting at Amazon than I do in a regular store because having something in my hand just makes it even easier... At Amazon, I can put it in my shopping cart for later and sometimes later actually comes, so it's not quite as impulsive...all the time. *g*
