No Pledge

One time back in the early 90's I told my wife I wouldn't be buying many CD's anymore. I figured that I was caught up with all I ever wanted. What was I thinking? And why is it so hard to back off? Because when you're a music fan/critic you're never caught up with anything. Catalog titles, new titles, curious titles, they all come at you all year long. Now I never make that pledge anymore. At the beginning of a new year or in the middle of it. My wife understands. I think.
