The damage
Jun. 20th, 2007 12:56 pmThis DVD-buying season of discounts has taken a real bite out of the old wallet. And this is not good right before summer when I needs to be going out to the movies for stuff. Is that irony? That my love of movies and purchases of the same might curtail my ability to go out and enjoy them more? I think that's irony, but I can't ever tell. I blame Alanis.
Last night, I recounted with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
darkling1 and feiran how many DVDs I'd bought. Counting seasons of TV as one movie's worth, I think I came up with nineteen. In the past month, I have bought nineteen DVDs/sets. Man, am I reallyglad that moonlightalice talked me out of buying Prison Break because then it would be twenty and that seems just that more gratuitous.
Oh. Wait. Shit. I bought DVDs upstate over Memorial Day weekend in addition to the Deep Discount sale and the Best Buy one. Fuck it all. Okay, then, what's the actual total?
( Counting off... )
Ouch. Twenty-four DVDs. And that number is low-balled by not counting the three-four-five dvds/sets I bought as gifts and by counting TV shows as only onepurchase per season. Ouch ouch ouch. My wallet hurts. Clearly, the solution is to go drinking tonight. And, wouldn't you know it? That's exactly what I'm going to do! Woo!

THE CUTENESS!!!
Jun. 20th, 2007 03:54 pmOMG remind me to kill arcane_the_sage. He linked to this LOLcats forum and I've been there ever since compiling cute and adorable pictures. At least with something like CuteOverload.com, I know that it's dangerous. Put a warning on it next time, dude!
( SO CUTE )
And this is my absolute favorite:

No, no, no! No more DVDs! Bad me! Baaaad!!!
::whimpers::
But I want Animaniacs!
NO! I will be strong! And wait for another 20% or BOGO sale. I WILL WAIT, DAMN IT!
Because I just bought t-shirts online and I'm out another billion dollars on that. So, no DVDs for me!
But if I just happened to be next to a Best Buy...I could pick up Office Space for just $10...
Obviously, this will power thing is a work in progress.
