I’m so fucking pissed right now. I ordered a ring from what I believed to be a reputable eBay store back in mid-September. After a huge ordeal with the first package not coming in and a second item being shipped out, it turns out that what I ordered is NOT what I got. The listing claims the ring is Sterling Silver and “high quality”. However, being that I did six semesters of Jewelry and Metalwork in FIU, I know the difference between Sterling Silver and fucking pewter. Not only is the ring lacking the signature .925 stamp that all Sterling Silver rings are required to have, but it looks like it was run over by a car! Silver does NOT dent or ding very easily, but pewter does, which is why it’s so cheap. This is a cheap ring.

I’ve already contacted the seller and told him that the ring I received is nothing like the one in the listing. Thankfully, the seller has been very good with responding to my emails, and even told me he’d give me a full refund if I hadn’t received it by Monday. I’m going to ask for a refund anyway, and will send this back to him right away.

ARGH, DAMMIT. Audi didn’t understand why I was so happy when the package came, but I have been wanting to get a ring on every finger for YEARS. It’s always been one of those small, seemingly unimportant but very personal goals for myself. Why? Simply put, I love the way it looks. But now, I have to hunt for a new ankh ring for my thumb. This fucking sucks, man.

Ugh… I need a drink.

Life, Rants ankh ring, ebay, ripped off

Yea, it seems we have a lot of stuff coming in the mail lately. Here’s a quick rundown of all the stuff we ordered: A flat-screen TV (and since we ordered this particular TV, we get an X-Box arcade system with it for free), our Dyson vacuum cleaner, a Sony sound bar for the TV, a PS3 gaming bundle, and (if the vendor ever decides to actually send my item) my aknh ring that I ordered on Ebay. I can at least be absolutely sure the other items will be coming in, since we bought them all from reputable places. My ring has somehow mysteriously disappeared in the mail TWICE, and it pisses me off. I know I only spent 16 bucks on it, but I had been waiting for that ring to become available for months. =/ It’s very disappointing. I’ve contacted the seller several times and plan to take it up with eBay if he doesn’t come through.

Dustin needs my help again at World Atlantic Airlines, and I’m trying my damnedest to avoid driving to Miami as much as possible. I DO NOT want to spend the week with my parents again. The whole point of moving out was to STAY OUT, not keep going back every month. Oy. So, right now, Dustin and I are in the process of setting up a server online that I can log into so that I can work remotely from home. I really hope we can get it to work, because if worse comes to worst, I may HAVE to drive down. Audi and I need that income badly, so I’ll have to suck it up and deal with it if I can’t work from home. =/

I got really sick yesterday, ended up puking my brains out. I don’t know why I got sick. Neither Audi or I can explain it, since we both know the dinner I made was well cooked. But a few hours after dinner, I started getting that bad feeling in my chest. I took a shower, hoping it would make me feel better, but no dice. Finally, I stopped fighting it and just let it happen. I still had a stomach ache the rest of the night and most of today, but I definitely felt better after puking. Isn’t that amazing? Puking sucks SO MUCH, but after we do it, we feel so much better. Quite odd this body of human is, hmm?

Anyway, I don’t have much else to report, so for now… Ciao.
