Pls help me justify this purchase decision

Okay, I need someone to tell me I'm not crazy for this and help me justify it to my fiancee....

The Coal Margots are returning on 20/8 at 10am PST or, in my time, 21/8 at 3am AEST

I missed out on the initial drop due to $ availability
I missed out on the restock at the beginning of the year due to an unresolved issue where the website was trying to charge me shipping despite my cart being over the free shipping threshold for Australia (by the time I decided to just eat the cost, they'd sold out 😭)

I need these shoes for my wedding on 31/10 and I am NOT missing out again!

I have a calendar notification set for the drop, but would it be completely unhinged of me to set an alarm to wake up 10-15 minutes before the drop (so 2:45am kinda thing) so I can be on the site ready to get them as soon as they drop? My alarm will almost certainly wake my fiancee which he'll be grumpy about... I'm also pregnant and could very well already be awake at that time trying to find a comfortable position anyway... buuuuuut...

I really don't wanna miss out because I've been waiting ages for these shoes, but is getting up to buy shoes at 2:45am reasonable or is it completely crazy behaviour?

Serbian children's book recommendations available in Australia?

Hello, my friend is due to have a baby in the next few months, and I want to get her a book or two to read to her baby in her native language. She's been living in Australia for 5+ years and doesn't get many opportunities to speak Serbian anymore, especially since she lives in an exclusively English-speaking household, but I know how important it is to her to keep using her language.

If anyone's able to recommend any storybooks or baby books that I can get delivered in Australia to gift to her, I would be so appreciative.
