I almost did something really dumb today. I almost bought an Xbox 360. Nothing agianst the 360, I want one, I just can't afford it right now.

OK, So I went to Sam's Club (If you don't know it, it's kinda like Costco I guess, If you know what that is) to get some Macaroni and Cheese, Ramen noodles, and I got some gummy candies that were cheap. Well on the way there I decided that I was going to get a 360 and Halo 3. I get to Sam's Club, and they don't have any 360s, "fine I'll go the Walmart" I said to myself. I get back to my car in the parking lot and come to my senses. "I can't afford a 360 right now, stupid." stressed

So now I'm forcing myself to stay home. I need to get milk and some cigarettes but if I take my checkbook and leave my apartment, there is a video game store right next to the grocery store, I just can't allow myself to be put in a situation where I'm going to spend the money. gonk

My willpower is wavering but it has not collasped yet. It's really surprising how hard it is to resist, but I must. crying
