Went out shopping today, though it wasn't a very good trip. Not because we didn't pick up anything fun (we did!), but because ugh bad customer service. We went to Mind Games (tabletop rp stuff) first and they're always pretty rude, but idk maybe I noticed it more this time? They also treated another customer badly and I'm just kinda over it. We went to Minotaur (comics) afterwards, and even though the guy there wasn't rude (for once!), but because the place always looks like it's had one shelf-sorting per year.
I want to support bricks-and-mortar businesses, but when it's a matter of getting things online cheaply and not having to deal with shitty customer service vs going all the way to shops, attempting to browse their disorganized inventory, and then being treated like crap by the staff... eh. Just gonna buy online from now on and cop the shipping. In both cases, it's not so much that today was oh my god horrible, but that there have been a lot of incidents like this, as well as a few more questionable ones. It's just annoying because those are basically the only two shops in the city worth going to for those respective goods, so there's really no choice but to buy online.
But um we got some cool comics so that's nice 8D Tomorrow is a pretty big day - it's the twenty week ultrasound, so we'll find out the sex of the baby, and also whether it has any abnormalities or things to be concerned about. Everything's been so far so good, so fingers crossed everything goes okay tomorrow. I'm starting to feel the baby kick, which is... weird.
It occurs to me that I should probably make a sticky post for this journal at some point. Or are sticky posts not cool any more?
