Well..guess my lesson wasn't quite learnt, was it?

So yeah...some of you might recall a past blog o' mine where I discussed how I came mere micrometres from owing Mark Millar $2000 for a signed copy of the Once More With Feeling script and a copy of the The Chosen Collection.

Well...got myself involved in another 'Verse-related eBay auction and this time I did win. What did I win, you ask? Well...this:

So...in the name of charity - and due to my nutty new obsession with the good Ms. Glau - I now owe the BC Women's Foundation slightly over $400 US (close to $500 Canuckistani dollars). Yay me!

That... must hurt the financial planning of a couple of months a lot. If it's of any help - could have happened to me as well, had it been a browncoat.

Damn! You got all the BAD luck, ya?
I'd pity you... but, I'm too busy laughin'!!!

Solan --> It's actually not as bad as it could have been. My final max bid was like $500, under the assumption that coughing up that much coin would be highly improbably. Guess someone just realized they weren't crazy enough to push farther;)

Alliethorn7 --> Yeah, yeah. Laugh it up, fuzzball. Let the mirth go free;)

Aaawwhttp://www...so fuzzy!
Just content yourself that your tuition for a life lesson also brings you much bonus good karma points. Fragile newborns are very expensive, and you're helping bring peace of mind to some very terrified women (and men).

stinkingrose,

Oh, I know it's earned me lots of good karma and helped at least one couple with the roller-coaster that is having a kid. Especially if the pregnancy is gonna be smooth...

However, $417 is an amount of coin that is available to me, but still a good chunk out of my finances. Just makes me glad I pre-paid my rent for this and next month;)

Whoa! That's a lot of money! Congrats on the win, and I do believe that the money will be well spent.

And, I don't know anything about Canadian tax laws, but for your sake, I hope its deductible!
