Wow, the first weekend in a while in which I wasn’t working. So I did guy-style shopping. Which is to say, I knew what I wanted to get and went to the stores and got them. Among the items purchased:
- Tiffany sterling silver cufflinks. Because sometimes one feels extravagant.
- Tailor-made CYC shirt. Because I needed somewhere to put the cufflinks. (Shirts with french cuffs aren’t easy to find, and those that one can find often cost the same as getting them tailored.)
- Aussino bedsheets. Got hooked on the 370 threadcount of a set I’d bought previously, bought another set. I think threadcount is great - it allows some way of saying “this is a more comfortable set of sheets” without, you know, like, talking about feelings and stuff. Heh.
- Fossil Frank Gehry watch. Scratched up my current watch quite badly, needed a new one, and I’m a sucker for quality design.
Ah, the luxe life. Well, I guess I haven’t done much for myself lately, so there we go. You know, I’ve come to the conclusion that not owning a car and not even aiming to own one frees one up for other nice things.
I also looked for but didn’t find quality art / film posters to put on the wall - I wanted to get something abstract, or a poster of Manhattan, Annie Hall, or High Fidelity. Any ideas, Singaporean readers?
