Charming Sweetheart Blog

My girlfriend has a very unusual hobby: Shoes.
If only they wouldn’t be so difficult to buy… Look for stores, full and hot, bad personnel, etc.
Now she discovered online shopping on the Internet.

“Honey, how does this work with the Internet?”
“What exactly would you like to do, sweetheart?”

“I found perfect flip flops here, and now?”
“On the Internet?? On which page?”

“Shop Web something www. Looks nice.”
“Ahhh ok. Good. And what´s your question now??”

“Can I order the shoes there somewhere now?”
“Yes, honey. Place them in the shopping cart and continue to the…”

“Your technical mumble-jumble! I´ve never done this before!”
“Oh, ah… sorry, I didn’t know…”

“No, ok, just forget it. I´ll find out myself. So, lets see…”
“Click there on the bottom right…”

“Let me do it! It can´t be that hard.”
“Okay, honey, but if you have questions…”

[My sweetheart immerses herself, and I hear her clicking about 347 times.]

“Hey? Honey?” I have 6 pairs of shoes in my shopping cart now.”
“Nice… Can you order shoe closets there too??”

“No, I mean, I only want one pair! And now?”
“Just delete the shoes you don´t want.”

“But it doesn´t work here. Stupid internet, I knew it!”
“Okay, just take it easy… Enter a 1 instead of the 6 there.”

“Oh, okay, that works. Thanks, now I can do it by myself again.”
“Maybe I should…”

“No, but thank you, honey. Go…!”

[About 10 minute pass without a single click...]

“Hey? Honey?” What is SSL?”
“A coding technology that guarantees that your data is transferred safely.”

“But they don’t even have my data yet!”
“No, but you will have to enter it in just a minute.”

“But I only want to buy shoes, that’s all!”
“Yes, but they do have to be delivered somewhere, don´t they?”

“That´s pretty complicated, I think. So click on order.”
“I leave you alone then again, honey…”

“But you can´t leave now! Help me!”
“But you said you wanted me to…”

“Yes, but now tell me the address of your company.”
“MY COMPANY??”

“They want a delivery address, and I´m never here.”
“Ok, well, then, use this address here…”

“Great! There, and now I only need your credit card.”
“EXCUSE ME?? MY CREDIT CARD??”

“I don´t have one, and you can only order with credit card!”
“Okay, and now I have to pay for YOUR shoes, or what?”

“Come on, they only cost 4.99.”
“Do you mean you´ve been ordering shoes for 4.99 for an entire hour??”

“You can´t get exactly these anywhere else, and it´s only 12.89.”
“Honey, I´m way over 30, please, please, my blood pressure…”

“Well, shipping costs need to be added and…”
“Ok, here, use my credit card… I´ll buy myself a new one.”

“Can you do that??”
“NO! NO, of course not! You can´t buy money either, can you!”

“Oh, too bad. Why are you so mad?”
“Doesn´t matter. Do you have any more questions? HONEY??”

“No. It´s all good! I hope the shoes fit.”
“Why shouldn´t they??”

“They only had them available one size smaller…”
