Why would you need books if you have a Blu-Ray player?

I bought Coty colones for my mother and sister, for no reason except it was on Christmas sale. Pre-Christmas gift. Just for fun.

I chose ICI for myself. Needless to say,the cologne is a weak version of the perfume, but it is ok. :)

ici perfume is mmmmm.

I now see the world in terms of how can Sugru be applied to this object or situation. I must get some and go on a sugru bender.

I want to get the 10 DVD Prisoner Mega Set.

Come on by, foots, we'll Sugru together. I've only done one project so far - I wrapped the little cast iron loop on the lid of my dutch oven.

That seems like a good price for the Prisoner set. I don't think I've ever seen the show, but I know a lot of people like it. Maybe it's available through NetFlix.

Edit: I just added disk one to my queue.

I ordered two packs of Sugru the other day. I plan to give them as gifts, but secretly hope they won't get here in time for Christmas so I can keep them for myself.

They only have a 6 month shelf life though. Gotta use them right away.

footfootfoot 12-11-2010 12:21 PM

Yeah, the shelf life thing is like with super glue. I like to line up a number of repairs before I crack open the bottle.

HLJ, be sure you start with the first episode, even though each episode starts with a brief prologue, it is good to watch them in order.

I downloaded them as avi files, but like it enough to want the actual dvds.

HungLikeJesus 12-11-2010 12:26 PM

Hopefully they put the first episode on Disk 1.

footfootfoot 12-11-2010 12:41 PM

I'd make that guess too.

There is actually fierce debate over episode order throughout the series (apparently they weren't broadcast on TV in the same order as they were filmed, which is also different from the order in which they were written, and no one can quite be sure of Patrick McGoohan's intentions, etc. etc.) But that particular box set (which I own) includes a little "episode debate" blurb on the back of each DVD justifying why they chose the order that they did.

Sure but where are they.
This year they have two, count them two, Husky tool bags, a 16" and a 12". with exterior pockets, dual-zipper tops, all-metal hardware, and a three year warranty, both for $9.98. Then next year you'll know where your shit is.

Every present I buy for someone else ends up making ME happy that I (hopefully) got them something they'll like/need/want. So in the end, since the presents for other people are making me happy, wouldn't that be kinda like a present for myself?
I'm extremely giddy that I found Call of Duty: Black Ops at Target for $47...I'd already bought the boyfriend a wallet, but I couldn't pass up the game. He's been drooling over it since it was first advertised.


Oh, and I bought myself 2 books, bubble bath and pot holders to keep for myself :D.

bbro 12-16-2010 09:25 AM

I just got myself these boots - http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/shoe...Tall+Boots.jsp (for a smaller price yesterday)
These slippers - http://www.kohls.com/kohlsStore/inti...t+Slippers.jsp (in a different color)
Jeans, a sweater and a t-shirt. I think I did good :D

DanaC 12-16-2010 02:09 PM

Cool boots! I used to have some that were a little similar but with a lower heel. I wore them til they fell apart :P

I recently treated myself to these: http://www.next.co.uk/shopping/women...women&mpch=ads Though I didn't buy them from Next, I got them from a local proprietary department store...and I got them £20 cheaper!

monster 12-17-2010 09:54 AM

Pico and ME 12-17-2010 10:11 AM
