Tonight, I unintentionally bought nine albums. Luckily, it all cost me $65 with tax. Here is what I purchased:

  • Manishevitz - Grammar Bell and the All Fall Down ($2.99) I own Roll Over and love it, so three dollars was a safe investment.
  • Stroke 9 - Rip It Off ($2.99) I really liked their first record and, again, three dollars eases decision making.
  • Superdrag - Head Trip In Every Key ($2.99) Duh. They rule.
  • Blur - Blur ($6.99) I always enjoyed Blur, but Think Tank has put them in a completely new world for me. As a result, I buy this.
  • Cex - Being Ridden ($8.99) Jenny recommended this and I trust her.
  • Run-D.M.C. - Run-D.M.C. ($8.99) I need to own more hip-hop and I have been playing this record on the jukebox a lot lately. I just barely chose this over Raising Hell.
  • Mr. Lif - Emergency Rations ($8.99) I love I Phantom.
  • Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back ($9.99) How have I gone this long without owning this?
  • Cursive - Domestica ($6.99) I have this at home on vinyl, but for this price it is worth having one of my favorite records of all time in a portable format.

I justified the purchase by using birthday money. Granted, I could have used it to eat, but this seemed more important during the hour of shopping.
