 Topic: I’m an angry beaver!
Posted: 23 May 2008 at 5:06pm |
So pissed off right now.
Just rang Wellington Library to double check they still had my ticket I booked/asked to have set aside two weeks ago to go meet Jodi Picoult tonight...
They sold them.
Not a happy chappy right here. Grrrrr.
I was really looking forward to it! I wanted to go get the latest book of hers signed as I got it as a birthday present and was excited about being able to get it signed!
Bunch of meanies!
I'm going to sulk now... At least I don't miss out on Next Top Model... But still, would've much preferred to witness something intellectual and not as mind numbing as US Reality TV.

She is in Welly tonight, was up in Auckland a few nights ago. My friend works at Whitcolls in Welly and she does all the author signing - I always get a copy from most authors signed.

i hope you lay a big guilt trip on them.... they should have at least offered you a spare or to get your book signed as compensation.

i hate when things lik that happen my sis is a big kathy reichs fan so i tried to get a book signed for her birthday i was almost 30wks preg tryin to find the book signing her own website said was in the art centre area at 8pm in the middle of chch. I finally gave up looking for it at about 10 as my legs couldnt hold me anymore to find on a different website it was being held somewhere else!!! A security guard id asked where it was held had told me he knew nothing about it but heaps of people had been asking him. I was gutted.

I had a giggle when I saw the title, better to be an angry beaver than own one (I KNOW I am SO gross LOL!).

Bahahahahaha! I thought it might sound as though I have thrush or something!
No, my beaver's quite happy... Happy as a clam.
And that wasn't an intentional pun, either.
