Of course I'm basically a lone wolf and avoid any team playing like a plague. Possibly that's the reason. I'm not in the habit of explaining to others why I want what I want. |
Ha, ha, we are obviously complete opposites.
I am constantly justifying things to myself and others, well, not 'things' as such, just this particular ereader purchase. I have been wrestling with my conscience over this for almost a year now.
I don’t feel any such guilt over my purchase of a white kindle basic, I suppose because it is 'inferior' to my Oasis so I can easily justify it as a back up.
(I am also always constantly comparing things, so when I’m reading on one device, I’m thinking wistfully about the other device - and ecosystem/reading environment, and vice versa. Therefore one has to go, then maybe I can find some peace.)
