the Baby has arrived

my Sophie Collections
Finally! The long wait is over. Exactly one month after hubby ordered it from amazon.com, I now have the newly published Sophie Kinsella novel, Shopaholic & Baby in hard cover. It was suppose to arrive 2 weeks ago, but due to an unexplained reason, we were asked to wait for another week. Then another. I endured to a whole month of anticipation. And to add insult to the injury, I saw a copy of the book at the newly opened Best Seller Bookstore in Galleria at a cheaper cost. I was so tempted to buy it and planned to just give the one from amazon to someone else as a gift. But I resisted and thought its not a very cost effective decision ( oh, Becky Bloomwood will never, ever think about such thing!). And besides, hubby bought it for me and I have to at least take that into consideration. Anyway, Amazon gave a partial refund of $16 for the delay of delivery. Since the Shopaholic book was about $14, this means that, we actually got the book for free :) (now that's the Becky Bloomwood way!). So now, I have to stop this post and start reading.
