Nope, they're made by a little boutique audio company here in LA called "Avant". I put my deposit down on them today, they will be ready by January.

A kindle.

Oooh - nice!
Not tempted myself. But then much as I appreciated your lickle thingy in Glasgow, I'm not into gadgets. I'll be a book gal for a good while yet. I just prefer moving my eyes rather than moving the text. It may be a learned trait of course.

Today I bought a book keeper-aparter. Doesn't work well when you've just started a paperback. Was better than nothing while I was doing my nails though. Ooh - must post pics in another thread while they are still pristine (for Queen of Hearts tomorrow - we're celebrating World Book Day).

Today I bought a few pieces of professional clothing. You know, not pants, but slacks. At some point here I'm going to have to do better than jeans and clever t-shirts, so I figure I'd better start warming up now.

This huge ass keyboard for youngest son (not the one pictured.) And also a whole bunch of other Christmas presents. Some call me a weirdo (ahem!

), but on years when we don't see my hub's kids at Christmas, we try to celebrate with presents on Spring Break and they are on their way here!

This one was a pain to wrap, by the way.

footfootfoot · 03-04-2011, 10:14 PM

a terrific assload of groceries, like $280 worth, still have to buy meat and fruit and vegetables...

skysidhe · 03-04-2011, 11:07 PM

That's nice Kerosene.

Foot, that's a lot of grub!

I didn't buy anything today, but yesterday I bought niger/nyger seed.

kerosene - I don't understand the 'not the one pictured' part of your post.

zippyt · 03-05-2011, 12:05 AM

Pico and ME · 03-05-2011, 02:42 AM

Yeah, but why? How many times are you gonna have a big keyboard box in your house that isn't the one you got for your son, but your son is in the picture with that box?

Just of sort of threw me is all.
