Purchase and Purge

This post is being made on a New Samsung NC10 netbook. With this little acquisition there are now 3.5 computers per person in my household. Along with a random portable DVD player. It does seem excessive. So what has been pushing at the edges of my mind is the temptation to purchase is so strong and is nearly always followed by a strong cleaning/purge rush. It is that equalibrium that has been hit where every new aquisition requires the removal of another item. However, there are so many emotional attachments to the old things and the infamous "..but what if I need it later?" argument that seems into your brain evertime you think about getting rid of that pair of red platform shoes you bought in Jr. High. Then the "well maybe I can sell this stuff" argument hits. With no yard, the neighborhood sale is nearly impossible and it sems that ebay is not getting the traffic it once was.

Tricky. Am loving the netbook though ;)
