Dave's new toy

Given that I've been talking about being distracted lately, naturally the obvious next step is to buy more toys. In that spirit, yesterday I picked up a blu-ray / network video player. Incidentally it also happens to play PS3 games.

Why now? Call it a combination of a few things: a recent 25% price cut, a new model which sucks much less power and takes up much less space, a save-double-the-tax sale, and a freebie thrown in. I'm also trying to move entertainment to a separate sphere to see if that helps improve concentration.

This move was also part of home-upgrades weekend - which also consisted of stocking up the kitchen with a few new things. Every bachelor should have, e.g., a rolling pin floating somewhere around the house after all.

On another note, ever since getting the flu in mid-August I seem to have been getting sick again on a more regular basis. It's starting to drive me nuts!
