random bits and pieces

not life but toys?

perhaps i should write to my current audience, how's this? i'm not behind in life per se, but i'm definitely behind in toy acquisition.

i still drive the car i had in high school - pretty much everyone i know has either 1. newer car or 2. fancier car than me. (not only that pretty much everyone drives standard too...) i could buy a new car, but car payments just sound stressful.

i don't have an ipod. this should be remedied in a few weeks.

i don't own a fancy cell phone. smaller the better or the more features the better. i did upgrade my phone this year, but it's not bluetooth wireless or anything. my laptop has a bluetooth something or the other, but honestly i'd be really surprised if i ever utilize it.

i don't have a big tv. dennis is right, no hdtv. i wonder if those are heavier than my 24" tv. i already dropped that. i don't think i can get any larger tv. i'm not going to tempt fate. the first tv didn't kill me the second one might.

no tivo. that's one toy i wish i had but i don't. i think it'd make tv watching signficantly more efficient, though the only show i watch regularly is alias.

kitchen scale. okay okay no one i know has one... but i'd like one anyways. you know the digital kind.

no roomba vaccuum. i don't know if that's a good or bad thing. i think i'd end up tripping over it more than anything else.

my stereo system was given to me by gerald. it's a nice one, but i didn't buy it. i suppose in the realm of toys i could get a super fancy stereo system with klipsch or paradigm speakers?

however according to dennis i do live the bling bling lifestyle as i do have a set of wusthof-trident knives.

okay that's all i can think of offhand of toys that i'm missing that most of my friends have. but that's the beauty of it. my friends have the cool toys so i get to play with them anyways :)
