I ended up with nearly $150 to spend at Best Buy from various Christmas gifts. I finally started spending that money.
My philosophy is to make that money go as far as it can possibly go. That means that I will rarely spend more than $10 on a CD or $15 on a DVD, except in rare cases (which, of course, they didn't have in stock). So here's what I ended up with:
DVD: Run Lola Run
DVD: Das Boot (Director's Cut, widescreen)
DVD: The Nightmare Before Christmas. This is a special one because this was the movie Nase and I saw on our first date. Besides, it's just a load of fun... and it's got Danny Elfman in it, for heaven's sake.
CD: Home, The Dixie Chicks. Regardless of what my wife thinks of me for it, I really like their music. I already have their first album, Wide Open Spaces on order from Amazon.
CD: Purple Rain, Prince and the Revolution.
CD: In Utero, Nirvana.
CD: The White Stripes, The White Stripes. White Blood Cells is fairly good, De Stijl is amazing. Hoping this one works as well.
I also got some more lithium AA batteries for my digital camera, so we should have some more pictures of the house online RSN. Maybe we'll head up tomorrow...
