today i decided to sit down and make myself use some amazon.com gift card money that had been on my account for a while. there was nothing in particular i wanted to buy, and it's not like amazon.com gift cards expire, but it still felt like i should figure it out -- who knows how long it would be before i needed to order something from amazon. after browsing more than two dozen categories on the site, including kindles, luggage, and men's grooming, i ended up just ordering six books. books from amazon. like it's 2001 or something.
