Sitting in Starbucks this morning, I realized I forgot my wireless headphones. Shoot.
Best way to solve this problem, order another pair, for the backpack, where that pair will always remain.
I click on Amazon.
Over the years, I assume I've bought a thousand "things" from Amazon and have done a hundred times that many searches on Amazon.
I click on Amazon. The first thing that popped up -- an Amazon alert that the bone conduction headphones that I had purchased sometime ago were on sale.
Now, of the gazillion "things" that I could have been searching for, this was the one that popped up. My last two searches on the internet had to do with books -- one on East Germany and one on Covid-19. Neither of those searches had anything to do with headphones, or music.
But there is was. I went to Amazon to look for a specific item, and Amazon seemed to know, at a distance, in a spooky way, for what I was looking.
So far this morning, from Amazon: Starbucks K-cups; the headphones. It's not even 9:30 a.m. yet and local stores won't open until 10:00 a.m. -- yes, the grocers are open, so I could pick up K-cups, but not the headphones -- even if I could find them locally.
Later: 1:40 p.m. same day — alert from Amazon that my order had arrived. Amazing.
