The tracking on my Threadless order isn't working properly, and it's rather disheartening, if you consider that online tracking is a major source of utility when purchasing items online.
(Sure, it might be faster to go out and buy certain items, but there's a certain charm in going to the website of your package delivery service of choice and refreshing 5 times a minute. Or more.)
I contemplated donating to Child's Play to make up for this utility gap, however I'm rather stuck on what exactly to get for the kids. (I already know which hospital, as it's the one I was born at.) The nice thing about Child's Play is that it let's you chose exactly where the money is going, so you can make sure that they get games/movies that don't suck. I'm kind of wavering between Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (Red), one of the Pokemon movies, or Rush Hour.
(Also, am contemplating getting Mom the "Dexter" box set for Christmas, on the principal that she won't watch it anyway, so she won't be horrified. That would be the emergency backup idea, yes. Also if I actually make it in time to get it for $19.99, that is.)
