I guess we're living the good life !

"Don't worry honey", I said as Mike walked out the door at 2:30 AM headed for his overtime shift at work.I fully intended to make sure that I was at the computer at noon so that I could renew his Hot Wheels red line club membership and get him the chrome car which was reserved for the first 3,500 to renew. Since he has been working day shift for the last few years, I am no stranger at the drill of waiting for that buy it now button to appear on the web site and aspiring to snag the prized car. I must say I have even been pretty good at doing this in the past.
Fast forward to 11:50..... Mike calls to remind me but I am already on the computer. We make small talk. 12:00.... the buy it now button appears.... I push it.... I log in...... What ?? no add to cart button... Mike is on the phone... "It isn't there" I say with panic in my voice ! He logs onto his lap top at work. He tries. The" add to cart" button which should be there is not but a coming soon logo replaces it. "Maybe the site is slammed" Mike says." No I have done this before...."I reply " the button isn't there" I go to another page and see how the store is set up. Yep, just as I remember.... there should be a button. Mike and I both keep refreshing the page.... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr still no button. We chat and refresh as I call Hot wheels 1-800 number. Golly gee... the lines are backed up and I am on hold. Finally I get a representative. As I thought Hot wheels is having a site problem and my Patience is appreciated. I take a deep breath. Mike's lunch is over and he has to log out and get to work.I vow to stay as long as it takes and keep talking to him via blue tooth as he starts back to work. It has been an hour now and I begin to joke about how much I must love him to still be at this. WE chat and I keep refreshing. Yes.... could it be..... I see the add to cart button, YES!!!!!!!!!! I hit it.... I put in our credit card info..... Yes my order is complete ! Did I get in quick enough for the chrome car ?????? Waiting for my confirmation to tell me......... Yes.... Score I got chrome ! Mike is happy... I am happy for him !!!!!! Yep... I guess that we really do live the good life !
