I finally saw Kyocera Ceramic Chef knives cheap enough on Cyber Monday to order one. The tracking number says it is on Truck for deliverly today. Woohoo I am going to be a veggie chopping maniac tonight. Anybody else gotten or getting their selfish Christmas toys yet? ---

I wanted to. I was looking for a sale price on an iPod Classic (the only model with enough memory for all my music), but nobody offered any deals on it. ---

Me! So stoked, I picked up a Garmin Forerunner 310XT for an insanely low price on Amazon. I didn’t want the heartrate monitor, but it was actually cheaper with than without! ---

Heh, all my holiday responsibilities were over with after Thankschanukah this year. So any shopping I did on Black Monday week (and I did some) was for me. ---

I bought some new bras which were 50% off. Bought some shoes which were 30% off but they didn’t fit (and I had to pay for return ship aaargh) I bought a SanDisk 32GB flash drive for funsies. I’ve bought myself a bunch of other shit lately too but it’s not Black Friday sales. Just stuff I need… Except I bought all the Muppet movies on Blu Ray, which weren’t on sale but the last ones came out on Dec 10. Usually at Christmas I take my change to CoinStar and exchange it for an Amazon gift card and buy myself something. So that’s what I got. ---

Sadly, during nearly every round of online Christmas gift purchasing, I’ve accidentally bought myself something guitar related. I don’t know how it keeps happening. ---

Solo Pro Fp2 Micro copter. You’re never too old for the really cool toys… Lowdown, I came within a hairs breadth of buying myself a D’Angelico Excel for my birthday while I was on a business trip. I know wherof you speak…The only thing stopping me was figuring out how I was going to get it on the airplane without them destroying it…
