That's a good one to kick things off. You'll be in rehab soon enough. :lol:
Yeah, I probably will. Expensive habit though eh? There is nowhere near me that sells vinyl so it will be a mostly online pursuit but the prices are steep on some sites.
With no local used stores in your immediate vicinity, it can get expensive. I have 2 local shops where I can get some good stuff for $5 or less.

Yeah, records are good. My local vinyl shop just announced they are going out of business. I am buying up all types of stuff from there. I usually stick with buying stuff I already have on cd/digital.

trying to capture that quite elusive moment of zen.

...and the seasons they go round and round
and the painted ponies go up and down
we're captive on the carousel of time
we can't return we can only look behind
from where we came
and go round and round and round
in the circle game...

My sister-in-law just yelled at me around the backyard fire. Asked why I haven't said a word to her in four weeks, even when I've basically said, 'Hello' to everyone else who has walked in the front door.

Heading out of the office real soon - might go grab a beer with a buddy and so I'm waiting to hear from him or I'd be gone.

Decorate tree tonight or tomorrow. Presents for my baby girls, but just me and the fam for the weekend. Maybe I'll fix my temeramental wah tomorrow. Going to the Raider game on Sunday and back to work on Monday.

Four-day weekend for NY, though. Having some friends up to our mountain place for that and should get my first day of skiing in for the year.

Have a fun and safe holiday season, Boarders.
