I need to own things

Work wasn't so bad today. It went by fairly quickly. I really shouldn't be complaining at all about working overtime in my pajamas while watching The Daily Show and Biggest Loser. I probably only got about 4 hours of sleep last night. I didn't get into bed until 2 a.m., fell asleep around 3 or 4, I think. I had this awful dream about a demon fetus in a jar screaming out all these real and unreal secrets my family has. I ended up smashing it with a Donatello-like staff. I've been trying to do those sit-ups in the morning right as I roll out of bed but I'm so tired I lose count by about 20 and probably fall asleep somewhere in the 30's. Probably the only exercise where it's possible to do that. Ya know, since you're on your back and all.

Anyhow, I told myself that when I moved down here "a lot" of things were going to "change." I.E. I was going to purchase big ticket items that were supposed to make it easier for me to create.

Item #1 - iMac. The biggest one they got. This was going to help me record and produce music and run my tape label better. I really do think this is a must have. Maybe not the biggest and most expensive one they have but a new computer is needed. Something where I don't have to think to use it. It should be intuitive and linear. Nice looking too. Everything I'd ever want in a girl . Give it to me in a computer. Approx. $3000

Item #2 - Xbox 360/Ps3 + Rock Band 2. This was supposed to teach me how to play the drums. There is some dispute about its ability. Man, I wish I could play the drums. I should probably test one out first before making this investment. Approx. $600

Item # 3 - The Electro Harmonix Hog. This could be one of the most amazing guitar pedals I've ever seen. It's an organ simulator with pitch bending abilities. Midi capable. Approx. $500

Item # 4 - One year YMCA membership. Approx. $300

Cost to change life = $4400.

So far, I've gotten the Y membership. I think it's working. I've gone once. My basketball game needs a lot of work. Signed up for those yoga classes.

All this stuff. I gotta get this stuff. It will work for me if I give it all the proper respect. I've always been so careless with everything. That can't be the case this go around. With ownership comes responsibility. In so many ways.
