I have been in denial for a few years about something I think I should share.  I've tried to ignore the urge, and have failed miserably as of late.  I am, and really have always been, a junkie for technology.
How has this manifested itself as of late?  It started almost three years ago, when I bought my first very own computer.  It was no one's but mine.  I had to take a loan out to buy it and I loved it.  I still love it.  
About a year after that, I finally bought an iPod, after saying up and down that I didn't need one.  
A few months later, after a bunch of pressure from my friends, I bought a digital camera, after resisting for so long.
A few months later, I bought a brand new iMac, so that I could have a desktop AND a laptop.
A month after the computer purchase, I bought a video iPod.  Why?  Because I wanted it.  
Now?  I want a video camera.  I want a digital SLR camera.  I want an iPhone.  And above all, I want a flat screen TV.  
I decided in the last month that instead of fighting these urges, I would embrace them, and insist everyone around me like me for who I am.  I will always want the newer computer, the newer TV, the newer camera.  And if that makes me a bad person, so be it.
