I placed my order for the trade edition from Amazon on July 20. It isn't here yet.

When I found out there was a signed edition available from Waterstones in the UK I ordered a copy on September 30. It arrived today.

I should buy this book. I got the signed memoir by Scott Ian and when I saw Halford's book, I almost got it immediately.

I just received notification that a signed book I ordered a while back has shipped from Waterstones over in the UK. This book is a celebrity memoir, which normally would be the furthest thing from my book radar -- in fact, this may be the first celebrity memoir I've ever bought.

But, I mean, c'mon...

Copies still remain: https://www.waterstones.com/book/con.../9781472279507.

Go on, you know you want one. Don't let book-budget rules hold you back -- rules are for suckers.

Glad they took care of you, to bad they can't also communicate with you. That are is fantastic!

Yeah, that part is a bit frustrating. Every time that I called, their response was always "we will contact you in 48-72 hours" but when I kept pointing out it was long after 72 hours the reply was "well, did you check your email?" That logic doesn't work.

I did go to a local store to trade in my old iPad Air 2 (Best Buy actually gave me the best pricing on trade in) and the guy was really nice and even gave me an extra $5 on my trade in. So as much frustration as I have, there are some good ones that work there.

So the drama with the stolen iPad has been resolved. I received the new iPad pro last week. While I still haven't ever received any official communication from Best Buy via email or phone (the last communication was on Twitter, but my Twitter account was disabled after I called one of the Fox News blonde bimbos a dried up See You Next Tuesday, and I'm not in any rush to re-enable my account.)

K loves the heck out of her new iPad (best part is I FINALLY got her to use LastPass for her passwords. That's been a project almost two years in the making.)

She's made one drawing on Procreate so far - it's an homage to Gail Carriger's Parasol Protectorate Series.

Not too bad for her first digital creation of this nature.

We've also backed a digital artist's Patreon, so she's learning a lot of neat tips and trick about how to create digital art. Excited to see what she comes up with.

Glad they took care of you, to bad they can't also communicate with you. That are is fantastic!

Hahaha thanks Brian!
