Things you recently bought or got

YESS!! Buyyit! Buyyit! Buyyyyyyyyyyit!!

 

Spoiler

Tattoo inside. It's healing now, and the bottom half will be finished in March.

 

Pizza pie. Yes, seriously, it tastes so good.

Can't seem to eat more than three slices though. Used to inhale these things as a teen. Ah, age is catching up to my stomach.

 

That's fhtagn awesome!

 

Got the entry-level MacBook Pro 16" over the weekend. Shiny.

 

Things I've gotten recently: books. dozens of books. I work at a library and have about 5 things checked out that are over due and is probably coming out of my paycheck... and rather than return them, i went and got at least 6-7 more books

I have a problem.
There is no cure.
-sighs-

 

You do not have a problem. You just collect books. That's not a problem; it's a blessing.

 

Reminds me of this:

 

I've overflowed two boxes... three, if I'm being honest, with the books I've bought since being in my dad's house. That doesn't count the crates I already had. It's not a problem, it's a gift. To myself.

 

Collecting books or any other eventual dust collector is fine. After you die, however, cleaning up that mess is a right pain in the back. For the living, of course.

OT: Ordered a shoe rack, since the old one decided to give up. Wish I could've actually went out to find one, but.....eh. Amazon has some nice ones on there. Now lets see if I can put the damn thing together.

 

Oooooh, cool!

 

If your books are collecting dust, you're not doing it right.

 

A new wallet. Took a while to find the size and style I wanted but I finally settled on this.

 

Would have preferred a manual transmission like my prior vehicle, but I like this CX-30 a lot.

 

I picked up a couple Milwaukee markers for work, this morning.

 

Got a clean bill of health of my teeth from my dentist when I went there for checkup. So that's something.

 

I just saw these in my local supermarket while on my weekday jog.
I bought them.
I ate them.
They are no more.

Why did it take so long for McVities to turn Jaffa Cakes into Maltesers and sell them in a packet?
I DONT HAVE THE WILLPOWER TO RESIST BITE-SIZED JAFFA CAKES!
Cunning, evil McVities. I'm going to have to jog twice as far each day now to burn these sods off.

 

I see sports have another healthy food sponsor.
It was Coca Cola and McDonald's for the Olympics in 2012. You couldn't make this stuff up.

 

I need some. It's as simple as that.

 

They should be called McAvities. As in "muh cavities."

 

This wallet. Yes, I bought a new wallet very recently but it was bigger than it looked in the pictures. I carry one card and almost never any cash, so this is quite unnecessary. My buying habits make no sense.

 

Now you've got me singing Macavity from the musical Cats.

 

Wait—is that the song the old man sings in Logan's Run? I was thinking about that as I wrote the above. Or was that more of a poem? Confused now. (And not sure if Cats was out before Logan's Run... )

Ok yeah, it comes up strangely enough as a Taylor Swift song. I guess originally from Cats: "Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity. There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity" Yep. the old man sort of muttered it.

 

All I need now is a big fuck-off workshop

 

While I detest wearing coats or jackets of any kind, the wife brought me a fine looking Black Peacoat.

Might end up actually wearing it sometime this season. Maybe.
