I'm looking at those Vancouver temperatures, and I dunno. My wool coat is heavy duty. Russian military. No joke shit. But I don't know if I have enough layers still to put under the leather coat in case of chill.
You may just have to, as if in Rome (and doing as the Romans do), get some fleece--the official clothing of the greater Metro Vancouver area.
A MILLION THOUSAND YAYS for PERKINS!
mac is going as a ninja. If I am allowed to dress up I may go really boring and wear graduation cap & gown.
There's no reason to wear a watch any more, what will cell phones and all, but I can't stop.
I have to wear my watch. I freak if I forget it.
With a watch, time is just a turn of the wrist and a glance away. With a phone, you've got to find the phone, then look at it. And since I have an analog watch, I can check the configuration of the hands to let me know what time segment I'm in without having to translate the numbers into time segment.
Why, yes, I am still very much an analog girl.
Given how small some of the cellphones are -- particularly the flip styles -- I'm surprised somebody hasn't come up with more "covers" that could turn them into wristwatches.
I need a sleek leather coat. I realize I live in Arizona, but still. So today I'm trying to figure out what coat I need to carry on the plane for Ohio this weekend. I am thinking only my light shirt-coat, as I'll have sweaters and turtlenecks I can layer if necessary. It'll be in the 70's here when I leave, 90's when I get to Phoenix. But high 60's in Zanesville and 50's in Warren (lake effect, dontchaknow). But I really hate lugging a big winter coat on the plane, plus I'm trying to go carryon only, backpack and knitting bag.
I like having a big clunky metal wristwatch, as it seems much more potentially useful for self defense than my tiny, mostly plastic cellphone that I'd have to fish out of a pocket.
The lack of public clocks in my office make me want to wear a watch again, but I am so far out of the habit. I have no idea what time it is when I'm in meetings, and it makes me nuts.
I auditioned and sang and didn't even throw up! And, I was on key the whole time! And, after much deliberation, I got the part I wanted.
Hooray!
I need to get a watch for flying, but it's been so long since I wore one regularly that I never remember to pick one up. I usually have a computer screen, phone, or other clock to hand, and I hate having things on my wrists.
