rampant consumerism
Oct. 18th, 2003 05:34 pmSomething about the prospect of unemployment just makes me want to shop til I drop.
In the past 3 weeks I have acquired:
- a DVD player (about damn time, I know), and of course a few DVDs to go with it
- 2 dresses (well, I needed one to wear to B&W's wedding and I couldn't decide, and they were both cheap...)
- the usual steady stream of books
- Photoshop Elements, because I really needed to crop and resize some photos of my cats, and besides wasn't it about time I cleaned up the image on the index page of my web site?
- costume contact lenses (black spiral pattern), plus new prescription sunglasses
- a pair of black high-top sneakers with buckles on the sides!
Next up: a digital camera. Because, you know, I should have a digital camera for the trip to UK+
BTW, I am currently researching, and think I'm going to get either a Canon A60 or a Nikon 2100. If anyone has strong opinions about these or other cameras in the price range (~200$) please do let me know...
