Striped Sweater

Sweater bought at The Iele Tree & Time Lag Records

$16

You can never have too many sweaters.

Water Bottles

Water Bottles and Splash Guards bought at L.L.Bean

$22.?? (lost the receipt)

Made in the USA! I don't trust water bottles or reusable mugs made in China anymore. The tea mug I bought a little while ago left a metalic taste in my mouth every time I used it so now it's just sitting there in the cupboard, unused.

I bought another one of these on 2/8/09 and spent another $10.

Inauguration Day snacks

NY Daily News, Oakhurst milk, Table Talk pie, and Twinkies bought at Joe's Smoke Shop

$4.43 (w/tax)

What better way to watch the Inauguration than with table talk and twinkies? I'm rather happy to be recording this event on my vcr!

Digital TV converter bought at Best Buy

$12.49 (using the government $40 discount coupon)

New Glasses

Anne Klein glasses bought at LensCrafters

$279.96 (frames & lenses plus tax and minus discount)

You can't really see it but these are a nice shade of eggplant purple. I'm rather glad to have glasses that show off my face a bit more. I've grown tired of the thick frames that have been popular the last few years.

Tea with Dutch

Green Tea bought at the North Star Cafe

$1.61

Dutch is this guy I know. That's not his real name but it suits him.
We met up at the North Star so he could help me with my computer. It was kinda wonky.
And now it's all fixed! Yay!

Tea Tumbler

Namu Baru Tea Tumbler bought at Clay City Redux

$11.01? (I can't remember what the change was but I know it was $11)

It's unfortunate that Clay City is going out of business. It's a great little place to find gifts for people you don't know very well.
This tumbler is vacuum insulated and kept my tea hot for several hours. Also it has a built in tea infuser! Neat.

Update 1/26/09: This tea mug is awful! It leaves a metalic taste in my mouth after every sip I take. The hot tea isn't worth slowly poisoning myself.

Oh Boy!

Stuff bought at the Christmas Tree Shops

$9.37

That's right! Another adventure to the xmas tree shops with my mum and sister! Discount holiday wrapping and a frame for my Bride Of Frankenstein poster.

Incense

Nag Champa bought at Mexicali Blues

$3.15

It's a pretty good incense. It reminds me of someone I know.

Swtich cover

Toggle Switch bought at Maine Hardware

$0.83

Toggle switch is what's written on the receipt. It also says "Just Big Enough" which I think is their slogan or maybe it's some sort of Freudian thing. Anyway it's for the space bathroom. I'm gonna glue pictures of robots on it.

Robot stickers

Robot stickers and tealights bought at the Dollar Tree

$4.20

Three sheets of robot stickers to put up in the bathroom. Remember the Star Trek calender?
It's in my bathroom now and I think these robots will look great beside it.
Candles are for emergencies! Sometimes the power goes out here in Maine. What with the ice storms and all.

Tony's Donuts!

Two glazed and two jelly-filled donuts bought at Tony's Donuts

$2.50

It's unreal that the best donuts ever would be so cheap. Way better than anything you've ever had in any chain donut place. If I go to hell for eating these it's a-okay. Mmmm...

Armstrong

Louis Armstrong Cd bought at Bull Moose Music

$4.17 (w/tax)

A used but still wrapped in plastic copy of A Song Was Born. Went looking through the Armstrong cd's on a whim to see if Black & Blue and La Vie En Rose were on one cd and here it is.
