Haiku for my sewing machine

Oh sewing machine
You may have a rolled-hem foot
But I still hate you

You eat my fabric
A ritual sacrifice
Except not with pie

Screwy tension wheel
Even after a repair
My fabric gathers

Clackety-clack clack
NOISIEST MACHINE EVER
It mocks me. Oh yes.

Love my new serger
But it won't make buttonholes
Or put in zippers

So I live with you
(Nasty evil possessed THING)
Please just don't kill me

So I'm on officedepot.com, using their "Ink Depot" section to double-check what specific color cartridge I need to buy for our printer. I find it. And then I look at the price.

"List price: 39.99
Our price: 54.29"

Um, maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like such a great idea to go around advertising that you charge one-third above retail. (Yeah, yeah, I know, it's all computerized, but still. Funny-bizarre.)

Off to buy myself some Boston Market. Mmmmm, mac n cheese. And also a color ink cartridge, hopefully for closer to $40 than $55. Yeouch. I'd buy online (not at officedepot.com, obviously), except I need to print out reference photos for the Con-Dor masquerade on Saturday. All hail procrastination!
