Ebay - The Excitement and Heartache

I have found Ebay. This could be dangerous. No, not really. I am a pretty frugal person. In the last 3 days, I have bid on 3 things and have not won any of the bids. I do have to say though, I have felt that adrenaline rush, I get all stressed during the last couple of minutes, I don't want anyone speaking to me, I am thoroughly engrossed in the bidding process. On one of the items, I just wasn't willing to go as high as the bidding had gotten. On one item, I goofed and forgot I had to confirm my bid and by the time I did, the auction had ended. Did you hear the "NOOOOO"? The third item, time just ran out and I did not win. So, I have now felt the heartache of having my hopes dashed.
My DH's comment, "What are you going to do with this stuff anyhow?". Isn't it in the marriage vows that husbands are supposed to console wives when things don't go their way? It isn't? Oh well. I am sure that my hope will be restored and I will be ready to try again the next time one of these items shows up for auction and there are so many other items that I may not have even found (YET).
