Amazon!

So, I actually ordered something from amazon.com. This is a first - somehow, I've managed to get by without it thus far. However, the pull of haunted house led me to purchase a fountain. I'm excited at the thought of incorporating this in the house:
I mean seriously - it has lights!

The thing that was really interesting to me is that the following appeared in the shipment notification e-mail:

Your order is being shipped and cannot be changed by you or our customer service department.

It just sounds so finite to me. There's absolutely nothing I can do to stop this. If I changed my mind, too bad - there's just no turning back. I'm getting that fountain whether I need / want it or not. Even better - it shipped within a few hours of ordering it. I was a bit surprised at how quick the turn-around time was. Wacky. Anyway, I'm just excited and looking forward to getting this.
