Life's "dot dot dot"

SO why do people have to be so manipulative just to get a few bucks? Last weekend I went to the Garment District in downtown LA to purchase a dress for my brother's wedding. Now I had already purchased one... but it wasn't really matching the feung shui of everybody elses. So I went again. This time I found the perfect dress: short, but cute, the perfect color and stylish to boot. Problem... they don't have the color I need in the store. But in an hard to understand english accent the guy promises me that I will have it by thursday. Hell they will even ship it to my house. So excited and full of anticipation as I wait for my PERFECT dress to arrive I fill the week with randomness as always. (Though on a lighter note... I did apply for a job today!) So anyways in the completley mind dulling boredom that I face on the daily, my phone rings. It is a women with a rough English dialect. "excuse me,... Yes, Is this Nicole... Yes" Oh I'm sorry we have dis-continued the dress you bought and we wanted to apologize. WTF! Yeah I was so pissed off. Hello, I paid extra and put good faith in these people that it would arrive and they just call and apologize and ask me to come down and pick another one... Why would they have had me purchase it in the first place. I asked 3 times while in the store if they had the dress in the color I needed and the man said yes... three different times. To what avail? Maybee they wanted a bitter diatribe from me over the phone because that is what they got. Now I have to wait 2 weeks and hope I can find something. Well those evil, discount sellers better be ready for me because I am going to rip downtown LA a new one, when I try for part 3 of my dress hunt.
