Pandemic Shopping Spree

Absolutely.

The kitchen was pretty much the only part of my house not touched in my remodel last year. New countertops, backsplash, and a gas stove are looking mighty tempting these days.

 

I bought a portable (extremely portable) power generator and a solar panel attachment to keep it charged. Mostly for cell phone and lighting in emergency....damn cool system and cheap.

Here it is. You know you want it, you want it so bad!

 

Yes! Welcome to the club.

 

I caved...



Four new Maryland flag-themed masks now en route.

 

Around here masks with the colorful Latino embroidery (otomi?) are very popular,

and really cool.

 

Unfortunately my wife does not get to choose what mask she wears.

 

If I had to wear a mask many hours a day, I'd prefer that ^ type of mask for the light weight, and the adjustable nose piece for less glasses fogging. Disposable is a negative, we have enough trash in the world, but under the current circumstances......

 

Amazon was calling. :: shrug ::







(last one didn't come from Amazon)

 

Do tell!

My wife loves fountain pens, and I can always use gift ideas.

 

lets just say im starting to think my wife is having an affair with the amazon guy. but i have no idea what shes getting...

 

I'm sure it's just his "package".

 

I know next to nothing about fountain pens but have always really liked them. I learned about these pens from these two video reviews and will be happy to share my own impressions once I’ve had the chance to use mine.

 

either way. lol


off subject wasnt their a song about a dick in a box?

 

thats it

 

Back on my bullshit... long live retail therapy.

 

I love a good notebook made with high quality paper. It comes from going to school before computers,
and typewriters .

 

Jesus. Here we go again. I blame ongoing COVID anxiety. Also hormones.


Replacement leads for the stubby pencil lead holder that accompanies the fountain pens on a daily basis. Because with the Moleskines, apparently now I'm going to start drawing again?




...Um. Shrug.



"Needed" this lil' something as a more appropriate option than my two wide angle primes for portraits I'm now shooting for work. Definitely writing this bad boy off on my taxes.




Another shooting tool, another expense.



Pair o' clips for the new fountain pens (which I love, btw).




Pumping the brakes on more purchases for the foreseeable future, I swear.
