The downside of Groupon

thistlechaserSo I called the computer place at 5, and while my machine was on the work bench, the guy working on it was gone. As he was there before 9 AM, I assumed it was for the day. Apparently only one person will work on each machine...
They open at 8, and 9 will be 24 hours. But if he has still not even done the diagnosis? I can threaten to show up and take my machine unworked on, but seeing how I used Groupon, the only loss will be mine... I paid already ($50 for $100 of service), so there's no cash refund for me. Still, I will have my machine by the end of tomorrow night, worked on or no.
Even though I'm supposedly not making money on WoW anymore, there's still one item I sell. It kills me that someone else could be moving into my market right now, buying up all of my raw mats...
On the plus side, I am getting faster typing on the iPad... Autocorrect helps a lot.
I finished one good book and started an even better one. Toothless. I picked it up because it sounded a whole lot like it was about Death Knights, and wow, it so totally is. They have a Voice in their head (Yew, the thing that raised them), there are ghoul-type creatures working with the "Knights", they have no sense of smell or taste (hi Morn!), need no food or sleep (though they not-really-sleep out of habit). The Voice is so much like the LK's was in the starter quests. I googled to see if the author played WoW, but didn't find an answer.
Back to work tomorrow, but at least I'll have computer access there. Seriously, an entire day with no computer seriously, seriously sucks. Nothing to do, no not to talk to, no RP... Not even this week's GoT to watch!
