    Yesterday I really wanted to listen to a particular CD and even though I had stuff to do before going to work, I spent a good portion of time looking for it.

    My husband searched for it later while I was at work but no dice.

    After wondering about it all day I realised I took it to a party about a year ago and haven't seen it since.

    I don't think it's going to be acceptable to call someone I haven't spoken to for over 9 months and ask if they have my CD.

    I guess I will just buy it on iTunes :-(

    That would piss me off to no end, I'm very materialistic when it comes to CDs and covers.
    When I started buying CDs and music my daddy always said "never borrow them out, they'll never be the same" well I handed one out once and it was returned scratched. So daddy made me call that person up and demand a new cd which they have me like $30 to buy it again.

    Your dad is very wise. I have lost multiple books by loaning them out but that's not quite as bad because I don't tend to read books again unless they are really good.

    Neither do I, but for some reason I just need more books on my shelf. >.>
    I should really finish the books I haven't started before I go out and buy brand new books. XD

    I'm terrible for starting books and moving on to others before finishing. I'm reading a lot on the iPad these days.

    I have a kindle but it's not the same. =[ my reading has slowed lately, although I finished a book a few days ago. I think so,e of the information was retained, but a lot was psychology and brain stuff, so it went over my head.

    well, if you want to talk to this person again, it's a convenient way to get back in touch with them

    I would definitely rather buy the CD again. She was a friend for a long time but was always very flaky, it got to the point where I always had to contact her and when we did make plans she would cancel at the last minute. I decided not to contact her anymore and next thing six months had gone by and she messaged me with abuse for "being a bad friend"

    Ain't nobody got time for that shit.

    when a friend is more bad than good, it's good to let go of them

    when a friend is more good than bad, it's good to get back in touch

    Very good advice.

    Thing is with this person too, after she abused me and I realised she had some issues going on we sort of got over it and made plans to catch up but she blew me off again :-/

    i'd rather just listen to internet music than CDs anyway. most of my CDs skip, even though i've taken good care of them. i guess it's just the nature of CDs.

    on books, i hate starting a new book, so it's extremely rare for me to start more than one at a time. i dread finishing a book, because i don't want to have to start a new one.

    I know what you mean. If I'm reading a really good book I don't want it to end.
