Pill thing seems to be working fuh-fuh-fuh-fine. This new level of alertness will take some getting used to.

Yeah. What was I talking about? STOP LOOKING AT ME!

Went to the local Amtrak office to see about buying a train ticket. While the building is opened -- the train station is used for function space, and restaurants move in and out -- the ticket office's hours are, and I am not making this up, Midnight to 6:30 a.m.

I bought the ticket online.

LOL I'd love to see Paula do that. The dollar shit is stupid, from a bidding pov: it only allows people to bid even more, because they think "oh, it's just one more dollar. I can do that." Plus it takes for-freakin'-ever. Too much suspense for my taste.

Smart bidders (like me ::buffs nails on shirt::) figure out what they can manage to spend on a piece, and bid up to that limit in 2-5 bids, preferably in $25-50.00 increments. That way it wastes no-one's time, the suspense is over with quickly for me, and if I don't win (people can frequently outbid me), I know I've made the winning bidder pay for the privilege of owning the item. Ebay's bidding system pisses me off, because there's no way around their minimal-incremental bidding system that I can figure out (mind you, I've not bid on much there).

The minimal-increment system is handled by eBay's computer -- it doesn't mean you have to bid at those increments. Bid what you're willing to pay, and it'll all sort itself out at auction's end.

Yeah, that's what I do.
