The more I have the more I want

Material Girl
So my attempts to lessen my material wants have gone to the trash, seeing how I just ordered 3 new books (and I requested them signed, no less). Having less in my life is probably going to hurt more than I’m expecting.
Since we’re talking about it
I ordered
- Angels and Visitations
One of the first Gaiman books I wanted. It went out of print by the time I got a job and could afford anything on Amazon. So here it is, back in print and I’m a happy camper. - The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish
Another one that will eventually go to the niece / nephew. But I suspect I’ll end up keeping it… - Neverwhere
Depending on how this one goes, perhaps I’ll get the series on DVD too. Everyone says its great, but this is one of those where the synopsis on Amazon made it look bad.
The reality of it all
Since I’m a bigger book/dvd hoarder than I’m willing to admit, time to figure out what needs to be sacrificed to feed this habit. I guess Origins will have to take a backseat.
So what’s the key takeaway?
That I’m still fascinated with myself. Nirvana is going to be a tough place to get to at this rate.
