Why Some People Suck

I am big advocate of Ebay - most of the time. I work in products, so I have a full grasp of mark up and margin, so why pay full price if you don't have to? Recently I purchased some Victoria's Secret mukluks on Ebay. A week or so later I found out the seller was no longer a member and my auction had been deleted. Ebay let me know I should contact Paypal to get my money back, but that they could not tell me why this person was no longer a member. So, clearly shady.

Here's what gets me about people... You are that smart to take the time to plan how to use people's information to steal from them, why not take that energy and get a real job, open your own business, do something constructive; stop making the world a worse place for you existing in it.

I just cannot understand how cruel and selfish people can be. I am not perfect by any means, and I know that I can be a bitch, but I would never go out of my way to wrong someone who has never done anything to me.

I have all of their seller's info, not that it would stay the same if they relisted items on ebay. I also have their name, location and phone number; so if you would like to know who to avoid on ebay, I can let you know.

Bored to Productivity

There is a lot going on in my life right now. Well, not a lot, more like one big energy consuming thing. So I have been trying to clear my head so that I can think more clearly. Part of that involved spending a weekend alone. I know I watch too much tv, so I struggled to find things to fill my Sunday that were not television related. Eventually I found myself looking up how to do effects in Photoshop. (See if I am left alone and pushed to the point of absolute boredom, I become productive. Not sure why I can't just sit down and do something constructive in the first place, but whatever, call it a process.) For most of my friends what I am going to paste below is likely one of the most simple things you can do to make an image more interesting... BUT I just learned it and I think it's cool. Behold a product of my boredom:
