Proverbial Question…

arc here –

things that have happened since my last post:
-I got my Frisbee and it’s been great playing ultimate.
-I got my cleats for 35 bucks, and it’s been great playing ultimate in THE RAIN.

-I’ve decided that the nano case can wait – I’ve found a sleeve that’s suitable for it with buying anything. Yay!

-Planning on returning the water purification tablets.

To make a long story short, SNOW came in on the weekend of our Yosemite trip, so I don’t need the water purification tablets, cool deal…because that money needs to go towards…

-Another pair of free weight gloves.

I lost my set of gloves, and I have to say, the raw skin does not help me. I’ve decided that I need to get another pair.

Two issues have come back in which I need feedback:

-Linkin Park’s coming out with a new album in two weeks. I have a friend who’s offered to get me a copy. But I would rather purchase their album because I’ve done so with all their other albums, and frankly – supporting artists is the right thing to do. Should I just lay down my resolution and purchase this album?

I think I should.

That segues into the next one:

-Sara Bareilles is opening for Vienna Teng this Thursday in San Francisco.
Try as I might, I cannot find Bareilles’ CD online. She only sells music through iTunes, which I don’t want. (No DRM, thanks.) If she’s selling CDs at the concert, I’m going to break my resolution for this album. Otherwise, I don’t think I’ll actually have another opportunity to purchase a physical CD of her music.

Maybe an appropriate compromise would be to get the Sara Bareilles CD, since I can’t get it elsewhere, and skip Linkin Park until the end of the year. God knows they’re popular enough to be found everywhere by January 1st, 2008.
