Falling off the wagon

Despite our differences, there's one thing that most people like me seem to agree on: that it's impossible to entirely keep it under control and bottle it up. If you do, it's liable to burst out unexpectedly and uncontrollably.

I must admit that just recently I'd been trying to deny my innermost urges, knowing that it was too expensive (monetarily and emotionally) to keep pandering to them. But my fetish found ways to escape, I found myself looking at niche websites again, living vicariously through other's experiences.

And then, yesterday, after a night alone in a hotel room with nothing to do other than reading specialist blogs, I couldn't take it any more, the dam burst.

I went out and bought a new shiny thing.

I know I've always protested that I don't want to make any life-style commitment, but I think it's time to be honest with myself. I think I might be Jobssexual.
Anonymous Dan  I ordered one too. According to the website it's due to ship soon.

I'm rather excited.

Plus i got 6% off by ordering through quidco.com

Blogger Lara Tyg  The thing is with Shiney thing Syndrome is that the current shiney thing will always be eclipsed by the next shiney thing.

Its a downward ,unbreakable, spiral that leads to madness you know.

You have my sympathies, but you should really seek help soon, before your addiction consumes you. I've read there are internet groups where people similar to yourself (well it was the nearest thing I could find!!!) can share and even socialise occasionally...

I hope your latest fix will keep you entertained :-)

Anonymous Becky Storm  oops, I read it as "The funniest iPod ever" and sat there wondering what was so funny about it! 
Anonymous Kristina R  Let us know if lives up to the hype. I'm enamoured with the iPhone-ness of it without the hideous contract, tie-in bit.
