Erstwhile Okie on St. Mark's Place. "That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past."
I started getting ads on Instagram for this fancy watch last year. I thought it was lovely and it was cheap-expensive. People online that actually care about watches said it was garbage, but the only things that would have earned their approbation would have been 100x more expensive. And I have never had a problem with things that are attractive with questionable inner-workings. And I was making decent money so I bought one as a 40th birthday present for myself. It was the only one I got. I wrapped it. Then a month or two ago it stopped working. For once in my life I didn't just accept the loss and was pleased to find I had a 5-year warranty. The company is in England so there was quite a bit of back-and-forth about shipping throughout which I was constantly looking to my wrist and not seeing the time. But yesterday the replacement finally arrived and I am whole once more.
Thank you Randy Taylor for this killer blazer. Wish the Cincinnati got together more than twice a year.
Coworker and I wore the same company sweatshirts to work today. Too cute! 🥰
Matchy matchy barn/army coats.
Time to get a trenchcoat and buy tickets for an R-rated movie.
Got a Banana Republic gift card for Christmas and bought one of these zippered pullover sweater things I've always wanted. I feel like it makes me look like the kind of guy whose kids greet him with a handshake and who probably likes to ski.
Dressed for church. Novelty quickly decreasing.

Last night I dreamed that Apple Bottom Jeans were trying to break into the white male market and using Brooks & Dunn as their spokesmen. "Whenever I'm on the road, I can do with just about anything, except my hat, my boots, and my apple bottoms."
