Party at my place (525 6th Street) tonight! For those of you under 25 35, anyways. Sorry, mom, but multiples of 21 don’t count. *g*
So I went on a little shopping spree yesterday. First, I won an auction on eBay for a set of $45 Logitech Z-560 computer speakers (they retail at $150 - $200). The shipping on the speakers was a whopping $33, mostly because the included sub weighs more than I do. My soon-to-be-ex roommate Mark has a set, so I already know I like them. :)
Then, I bought a performance mod chip for my Kia. Yeah, I don’t know for sure what I was thinking on that one, either. But it was only going for $8, so even if it doesn’t do squat, I haven’t squandered that much.
I also placed bids on half a dozen shirts and two pairs of pants (one boot cut, one bell bottom) from the late 60’s and early 70’s era. I figure they’d be good for going out in the evenings. :) In fact, I’m hoping to make a run to Goodwill this afternoon on the off-chance I can find something fun for the party tonight.
After I got off work(s), my roommates and I made a run to Wal-mart for supplies. I decided to check the electronics section for this DVD player I’d been wanting for a month or so now (the Philips DVP642), because I’d read in various forums that Wal-mart was the only place you could really find them anymore (everyone else is out of stock). They had one: the display model. I bought it for $70. :) This DVD player is awesome because it can play the dozens of DivX movies I have burned to CD.
Luckily, I think that’s where my spree ended (the auctions I’ve bid in that haven’t closed being the only exception). I don’t care to add up how much I spent on random stuff today. *g*
See some of you tonight!

You’re about 18 hours late. I was invited to a party at a buddy’s house down here — in fact, I was gonna invite you to come along ’til I saw your update. ;p

I’m working this weekend, meaning I get to take calls during our party. *G* 8am is late, anyways. Monday - Friday I get up at 6:30am. Today I got to sleep in until 7am. :)

There’s a reason those clothes went out of style 25 years ago…and then failed to re-catch-on when retro was cool a couple years back. ;p
