Lately I’ve been on a small buying spree but not all for me. However, recent things have included a skateboard… yes, after not riding one since I was 12 or so I’ve decided it’s time again. Little did I know it would be such an arduous task to stay standing on that fucker for more than 10 minutes. I did a decent job the second time out and then had to leave it home when it got really really humid the last few weeks. Today was a good day except it’s been raining and I promised to not go kill myself in the rain.

I also bought my cousin new headphones and my gf an HDMI cable for her PS3. Then I realized my poor imac was dying – well not dying – but it couldn’t handle having the applications that I had on it, they were somewhat too “new” and were eating RAM, making the fan grunt a bit, and the updates were slowly making the computer slower. So I had stopped updating, had stopped pressing my luck and would shut down all apps to use the big ones like CS2. I figured I’d run it into the ground – then again, I’ve never actually been able to run any computer into the ground. I take care of them too well; they won’t die.

So I checked my bank accounts and danced around the notion of getting a new one. It would be a lot of “Oh WOW this is so fast!!!” and “HEY, I can play this now” sort of responses but I wasn’t sure if it was worth it.

Well, it was:

Makes me want to start playing with my music applications again and I moved the M*Audio so it’s easier to access and plug my guitar into. Now – to win the lotto and get a nice apt with J.
