'Not That Big' was a Big Deal

That's right ... I've bought my first item on eBay all by myself!

Okay, so I have this goofy obsession with The Dog® stuff, and went so far as to purchase a miniature pinscher Happy Meal toy ... from Hong Kong ... but my husband helped me. And that's a different story altogether.

I also collect music, though not on as grand a scale as some people I know. I'm selective.

I've recently developed a new love for a group called Temposhark. In the process, I found that another favorite of mine, Imogen Heap, did guest vocals on a song of theirs. Problem? Only the remix (which isn't bad) is available. I went on Temposhark's website and heard the original, and thus began an all-day internet search for the damn song. It doesn't exist (for free, anyway). It's on a promotional cd that is no longer in print and relatively hard to find. Until eBay.

Now granted, I am fully aware of the pitfalls of eBay. I have some first-hand experience with the potential "addiction." But I was on a mission. And with it's success, I can now safely step away ...

... until the next time I feel something is important enough to spend my hard-earned cash on.
