And The Delays Just Keep On Comin'

Still no sign of the PS/3 (tracking info still says it's sitting in the "Mississauga sortation plant.") I was sorely tempted to buy one of the 5 60 Gig PS/3's that Electronic Boutique had in stock when we were there this afternoon, buying a 2nd wireless controller (or 1st, really, since I haven't received the console yet) and Resistance: Fall of Man. Future Shop was pathetically understocked on most things PS/3-related, so the only money of mine it got was for a Peter Gabriel concert DVD and Marvel Ultimate Alliance for the PS/3.

And then we went to the comic store (considerably out of our way), only to discover the comics didn't make it in, despite it already being a day later than normal. Some sort of screw-up on the distributor's part.. that seems to be the theme of the day: those in the delivery business appear to be doing more storing than shipping right now! Maybe the seasonal high volume caught them by surprise, like it does every December!

Me, bitter? OK, maybe just a little.
