This past week I found myself with an inexplicable desire to purchase an Xbox 360. I just can’t seem to get the idea of buying one out of my head. I don’t need one. I probably wouldn’t even play it. I KNOW I wouldn’t play it that much. But these rational arguments don’t seem to be a deterrent to my new found obsession. Yesterday I actually took to pricing them out to see who has the best deal. It seems that craigslist or eBay is the way to go. You can get them for less than half-price! For some reason Nicole doesn’t seem to think that just because you found a good deal doesn’t mean you should buy. :) She keeps mentioning something about a wedding to pay for and seems to think that is more important than yet another gaming console. Hopefully this blog entry will sate my Xbox craving although I’m not optimistic.
Isn’t it funny how the desire to get something new can be such an emotional thing? I mean there is no logical reason for me to buy or even want an Xbox 360. Yet it is amazingly difficult for me to resist the urge to run out to the store right now and buy an Xbox. I mean the graphics wouldn’t even look that great on our TV. The Xbox is meant to be used on an HDTV and we just have a regular old TV. Hmmm, maybe we need an HDTV…
Oh, you make me laugh. Now you sound like Craig. He decides he wants something and just won't give it up till he has it. He might not use it, but he has it.
ReplyDeleteJust give the money to Nicole and pretend you bought it! hehehe I will be her favorite aunt now.
