C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER

sohmageek went on a bit of a rant said Tue, Sep 1st 2015 at 5:38am ET

Well today marks the end of a 9 month run. 9 months seems to be a theme for me... 3 jobs ago I was working at carters/Oshkosh which I worked there for 9 months (funny also that I worked there for only 9 months... For those that don't get the irony yet. It's a baby store.)
I then transitioned to my most lucrative job yet. However my personal life, and health suffered. I worked at AT&T. Selling cell phones was fun well the technology. The looming if you don't make your sales goals 3 months in a row being auto-shitcanned not so great. Also being one of the top preformers in the store, yet 0% of the store hitting the sales goal... Stressful. No it wasn't worth the money. 9 months again. Fiancé almost left me due to long hours, weight went up due to stress from personal matters and not having a freaking personal life. Also grabbing fast food. (I think I gained like 30-40 lbs in the 9 month period.)
Fast forward to today. 9 month packages from meh rolling in combo. Broken officially today. Yes it's my own damn fault. I fell asleep (not feeling well today.) but I don't know if I would have purchased more of those damn things anyway. They are awesome. But I've got a baby who has his first birthday. $28 isn't much but it's another toy or two. I know he's going to be spoiled by grandparents and great grandparents. But I want to spoil my first born for his first birthday too! :)

So I do have a package in transit to meh. I could always say something in transit to or from meh... But alas. The incoming package combo is broken. The mailroom guys at work thank you for the sellout.

TL;dr
Sohma didn't buy the item today and broke a 9 month streak of items being in transit or ordered since jan 1.

Holy shit, are you serious? That is some serious purchasing combined with logistics tracking. Also, I STILL blame you for it being sold out. So pissed.

- @marklog yes I'm serious... I've had continuous packages from Meh for 9 Months. The last package came yesterday. So Jan1 - Aug 31. I only purchased 2 or 3 things to keep the chain going... The rest were items I wanted.

- @sohmageek I'd blame @mfladd because of the goat by his name. Start the goat wars.

I read this as "comb breaker" and expected a tale of... thick hair? Sadly, I still saw "comb breaker" after I read the post. Eventually, my brain powered up and I realized I was stupid.

Not sure who I'm supposed to blame for this. For now, I guess I will blame the roofers that just started pounding above my bed after I got about three hours of sleep. I wish the goat thing was less ambiguous during the transition. I cannot be responsible for my own stupidity.
