Irrational
This is a classic case of my Irrational behavior. I had been wanting to buy a few books before I left NY. However the price tag for the list of books that I wanted to buy was daunting. I just did not feel like investing that much money, though under normal circumstances (steady pay check), I would have just ordered them with no second thoughts!!
However the last time I checked my amazon order list, I seem to have actually ordered pretty much the entire list of books, by splicing it over a period of time.
