Well, I've been trying my best to ignore the fact that certain accessories to my life have either been in need of replacement, are depleted, or are just plain missing. That has worked out pretty well, up until this weekend, in which it all came back to haunt me. As it turns out, I pretty-much spent the whole weekend shopping.
But I do have some new shoes, a printer, a bunch of food, and a new CD case to show for it. I was really hurting for that CD case -- all of the slots in my old cases have been "full" for awhile, but I didn't stop buying CDs. As a result, my music have been terribly un-organized for awhile, a fact that finally drove itself home 2 weeks ago. I decided that I wanted to listen to the Incubus disc "Morning View", but I couldn't find it. Finally, after I managed to track it down (in the case to some other totally unrelated CD), I realized that I have a job now, so I can afford to buy another CD case and get my CDs organized again, right before the become completely and utterly obsolete.
Now all I need to do is buy a receiver, and things will be great. Oh, and yeah, I need to clean my room...

Posted by andyr at January 26, 2004 12:22 AMI love how food ended up falling into the category of "accessories". Just curious, why don't you invest in one of those fat CD books? It's a lot more compact, the good ones are expandable and you can usualy keep all the paper stuff in there too. Granted, it's a hell of a project to make that conversion but it's a big space-saver. I know there are some wierd cd cases like every damn Nine Inch Nails CD that won't go in a booklet nice but you should be able to handle those with a little tower.
Or I could butt out since you already bought it.

Posted by: Rushabh at January 26, 2004 06:14 PMI don't think that I was clear in my post -- what I bought *was* in fact a Case Logic CD book. I think that their quality has gone down, though -- because the little CD booklets (that come with the quaint old-tyme'y physical music) don't fit quite right. Feh.
Anyways, to answer Rushabh's question -- no, I'm not selling my old receiver. I want to relocate it up to my bedroom so that I can have music up there.
Awesome!
