So I went on a shopping binge and all I got was this stupid blog entry

Yep. I did it. I went slightly overboard with my spending and I got some rather interesting things. First off, the idea that I paid off some of my debt - PFFFT! HA! Oh, that's a laugh and a half. You really expect me to sit here and tell you that with an extra chunk of change I would do something foolhardy and actually eliminate some debt?

How long have you known me?

First thing was first, I had to have some sort of plan, I didn't want to go half cocked and itching to just blow my wad (of cash, you sick bastards) on the first bit of electronics my trembling hands could get hold of. Then, once I was on the road, the plan fell through like a grease compromised paper bag full o' fried chicken and my impulsive instincts kicked in and I went all apeshit with the debit card.

First stop was at EB Games. I whipped out that card so fast I actually tore my wallet just a little. The PSP was finally mine. Then I jumped over to Best Buy and bought the 20 hour TiVo DVR. You see, there is a method to my madness. My madness is viewable TV shows ported to my laptop computer at my whim.

The TiVo website has a section that details how you can transfer TV shows recorded from your TiVo unit to your Windows based PC. All this means is I need to get myself a damn larger memory card for the PSP. It shipped with a 32mb memory card and to view a full hour program requires at least a 1gb memory card.

So what else is next on my shopping binge? For now, nothing. IM letting the bank rest a moment before going another round with my money. I still have yet to buy airplane tickets to Chicago, not to mention I need some new luggage. The luggage handlers somewhere along the lines going to Chicago broke the handle off the suitcase I had used for years (and has been around for at least 15 years), so I need some new travel gear, also thinking about upgrading the brakes on the Neon, not to mention I want a new mattress, laptop, desktop...
