The great Xbox adventure

So I finally caved and made the choice I probably should have made a while ago; and bought the Xbox360, in fact I bought 2... and then returned one. Of course after months and months of waffling back and forth I found a deal at FYE for an Elite model, which is the highest level xbox, for 399 with a 150 rebate. Ok so I go there and they have them in stock check 1, then I see it, however it didn't have the two free games that the previous bundles had been put with, so that was the first strike, now I wasn't depending on playing that completely through both but it was kind of something I was banking on- the games are kinda expensive. But I grit my teeth and after sitting on it for about ten minutes pulled the trigger and bought it. This of course was followed by instant buyers regret followed by Timea exasperatedly telling me to stop feeling bad about it considering I was bugging her about for months! So yeah I had come to grips with it, and bought Halo 3 on the way home fantastic! ready to play, then I checked slickdeals- and of course, the Pro version with the 2 games plus a Tom Clancy game for 213, no rebate required. Great. So of course no serious buyers regret is consuming the rest of the day, and night, and next morning. Then I check and I can return it, and so I did, but first I bought the Pro version, so for about 45 minutes I owned two Xboxes. Now I just can't wait for it to arrive. I'm hoping for Wednesday- it seems like a long time to wait. However, I can read the Halo 3 book! Fun times!
