I broke down. I bought a PSP today. While staring it down at Virgin I realized that it was only a matter of time until I picked it up, so why not do it now? Before the part of my brain that deals with logic kicked in, my credit card was swiped and I was walking out with a PSP and two games (Wipeout and NFL Street, which I'll be exchanging for Lumines when they get a copy in).
As a result of my purchase, I'm going on the PSP diet. I've got to balance out my spending somehow. Until my birthday on April 14th, three weeks away, I will do the following:
- Eat out for lunch no more than twice
- Eat out for dinner no more than five times
- Buy the cheapest groceries possible
- Buy no DVDs and 1 CD (I need the new Beck)
- Go to no more than 1 movie in the theater
Obviously, that's not all food, but a gadget/media nerd knows that hunger isn't the only craving you have on a daily basis. If I stick to this, I won't feel as bad. I'll have birthday money by the time my diet is over.
In totally unrelated news, if anyone needs some freelance web work done, I'm looking.

Why am I not surprised, hope you don't starve.

there is an ad for this sucker at my bus stop, its enticing. However, we finally stepped into the millennium with a real playstation2, so the mini guy won't be in this apartment for quite sometime. Keep us updated on your diet, I'd like to see how closely it gets followed :)
