want it bad, won't get it....
I have been waiting for this game for almost 2 years, and despite some recent complaints, I still lust for it.

I preordered the LE 2 months ago at EB, andstashed money from my meager paychecks at every opportunity. as of 3 weeks ago, I had the money set aside, sacrosanct.

I was then laid off my job last week. today, I had 30$ in my checkbook. my wife needs a prescription and my kids need milk. I don't know how soon I can get some money coming in.

the utilities are piling up and must be paid. for having a life, I must forgo Civ3, at least for now.

I'm going to drop out now. I can't stand to read all the news when I can't get it. maybe I'll be back when the pain dies down some.

Oh My Gosh!!!
I checked my Email today, after not checking it for a week.

I found that somebody from apolyton (not saying who, don't know if they want to be identified) sent me a gift certificate at amazon for civ3!!!!!!!!

I of course took immediate advantage of this. my copy of civ3 will arrive sometime this coming week.

I'll try to pay this person back sometime, but I am very grateful in the meantime.

I'M GOING TO GET CIV3!!!!!

YAY!!!!!

Thanks again.
