Duality

Something big’s going down at TRU (Toys R Us) tomorrow. We’re talking almost $5-CC-clearance big. I won’t be going—I better not be going because my credit card bill this month will already be huge—but I know I’ll be thinking about it all day.

I’m sort of interested in the games, but really, it’s not about the games. My fascination with game deals has never been about the games. If it were, how could I let all the good games I buy languish on my TV? It’s about getting something new. And getting something for much less than it usually costs.

It doesn’t make sense when I think about it, but still the deals never fail to fascinate me. Knowing that I won’t—and shouldn’t—be taking advantage of this deal eats me up inside, but I guess there’s always next time.
