How can I change components on my bike?

ok, ok, I hear ya, but she never did say that, everyone was just extrapolating. I hardly ever did shift from the drops on my campy.

Then it is unfortunate (not to use the r word) and only another 9-speed shifter will do the trick. Aren't there any? like this one?

I see they probably do cost you almost half as much as the bike that shop sold you.
Caveat emptor.
I spent 500 to go from a large double to a compact crankset when I bought my "deal" of a first roadie :-( but that was only about 20% of what I'd spent.
