a dilemma. i has one.

moral dilemma of the summer:
let's just say you want to buy an audiobook (yes, an audiobook. don't judge, just move on to the actual dilemma).

ok, so audiobook. do you spend $31.99 of your $40 itunes credit and buy it from itunes? or do you spend $50 of your $50 border's gift card and buy it from border's?

my logic:
i am leaning towards the gift card. because even if you spend one-hundred percent of it on this (audio)book, you can still buy books. you can always justify spending money on books (english lit. major, hello!). and if you use my itunes, you can only buy 8 more songs because you refuse to use a credit card on itunes (limits your spending that would otherwise be off the charts of out-of-controlitude).

and of course, this is only a hypothetical situtation (hence the usage of "you" instead of "i"). because what kind of loser buys audiobooks, let alone spends time debating about where to buy them.



. . .



. . . but seriously, what should i do?

quit being lazy and just READ the book.

just kidding. :o)

... but i can't believe you're still thinking about this... didn't we talk about this a couple weeks ago?

(alternate option, though possibly illegal: see if the library has it. if so, borrow and burn...)

I say you buy it twice, with both the gift card and the iTunes thing. That way, you'll have no regrets.
