Tech Obsession

I try to resist but like "Syler" from Heroes, I have "the Hunger". If you don't watch Heroes, get season 1 on DVD then Season 2 (because we all know watching 1 first then 2 is the way to go... haha) and enjoy this Geeky superhero movie (Michelle's opinion doesn't count on this issue). Anyway, the hunger or feeling of getting new tech toys.

I have lately been really wanting an X-Box 360 and with the Rat Story it made the itch go more. But, in conference it was reiterated for the 9,000th time to be financially smart. So buying an xbox 360 for catching a mouse is not what most of the sane world would consider smart. So, with that and, more importantly, Michelle saying that we should wait till Christmas sales and do a Christmas gift I will resist of spending foolishly...for now (see Syler from Heroes).

I have to say that the only show I don't want to miss each week is LIFE! I love that show. There are others I watch occasionally. I also like NCIS, but I've missed it the passed few weeks due to my photo class, but I'm sure I'll catch up with the reruns. I still need to catch up on 24 before this season...if Mom & Dad would get in gear & finish the last season!
