The copy of The Sigh of Haruhi Suzumiya I ordered from Amazon arrived on Tuesday. The bubble envelope it was in was sliced open in the back, top to bottom, right across the middle. Luckily, the book was still in there. Unluckily, the back cover and last pages had also been sliced. Anger!
But I have just discovered that Amazon is really easy to deal with when this happens. I reported it as "damaged during shipping" (though I'm not sure if this cutting was done before or after shipment) and they just gave me a prepaid return label to send it back and they will replace it. They also offered a refund instead of replacement, if I preferred. Awesome. Now I can just tape it up and walk it over to the UPS Store after we have pizza today! Today is Pizza Day, since Saturday is Christmas and Pier 49 will be closed, and also it is Tricia's first day of eating solid food after getting her wisdom teeth out. Celebration!
Also, grades were posted today! I got the B I was expecting in capstone, and my grade on my strategic management final bumped me all the way from a B to an A-! Also I finally got up to an A in AAIS with my final project, which is exciting since I was right at an A- the entire semester. And now that my passing grades have been posted.....I am officially a college graduate. In accounting, no less. I still can't figure out how this even happened.
