New Toy

So, this is what's been occupying my time for the past two days: Aaron's (early) birthday present to me. *squee*

See, a few days ago, I told Aaron that I was going to splurge one last time with my new Amazon Visa before I lay off the spending. Of course, he asked what I was going to buy, and I told him: an iPod Mini. And he got this look on his face and said that maybe I shouldn't really buy one right now...

*facepalm* I should know better than to buy myself stuff right before my birthday. I've done that before, and thrown Aaron for a loop. Luckily, I hadn't actually purchased a Mini yet, so all was well... except that I'd managed to ruin a really, really keen birthday surprise.

It's still keen, though. I'm still all a-squee about it, although I can tell that it'll soon become part of my normal gear, like my wallet and my lomo.

Wanna know what's on my iPod?
