asphaltcowgrrlI probably could have also titled this, "Things that only happen to me because I'm an idiot", but I didn't. So there.
Yesterday, I got to work, booted my computer, and opened up the Kindle for PC app. I use it to read during the day between projects or during lunch. Anyway, I went to click on the book I'd been reading - #MurderTrending by Gretchen McNeil - and discovered it wasn't the first book in my library (it defaults to the most recently opened or downloaded). Something else was there.
I likely made a face at my computer while trying to figure out where this new book - A Catered Murder - came from. Figuring I likely pre-ordered it or bought it on the cheap and forgot about it, I opened the proper book and got to work.
As the day went on and I got my email cleaned out, I stumbled across an email from Goodreads telling me that I was a winner. Score! Free books! Well, guess what book I'd won? A CATERED MURDER. LMAO. God, I'm an idiot sometimes. But, in my defense, I'm constantly entering Goodreads giveaways and almost never win. (I've been using GR since 2006 and have won three times...)
So, yeah, that's a day in my life. LOL Talk about first world problems, eh?
