Uggh painful. My life is nothing but a series of awful purchases and poor decisions. I need a girlfriend to reign me in.
But you can't think like that because otherwise you will never buy anything.

Take me for instance, I've been wanting a new TV for months now but have been holding off until our house is built. When that time comes around I will probably procrastinate because there will be some form of new technology that will make me think hmmm I should just wait a few more months for the price to come down.

It's a viscious circle my friend and unless you bite the bullet sometimes you will never leave it

my poison, like so many others is electronics cables. I purchased a couple optical cables one for my cable box and the other for my DVD player. I got home and started to hook everything up when I realized that my stupid DVD player didn't have an optical output and those suckers aren't cheap. I still have it sitting in a closet waiting until I buy a new DVD player
