Fire In My Pocket

Why I no longer post.

2010-03-10T10:43:00.000-08:00

Okay, so the point of this blog was to stop me from buying stuff. But it backfired. Instead of saving money I started spending more money to post stuff on here! Crazy right?
So insted of blogging about stuff I've been writing music.
If you're interested check it out on the following sites:

Thanks to everyone who encouraged me with this project.
I'm kinda glad it's over!

ipod nano

2009-04-27T06:06:00.001-07:00

Pink ipod nano bought at the Apple store in the Maine Mall

$56.45 ($149 plus tax minus Birthday money)

This is the first ipod I've ever owned. I'm a bit behind when it comes to technology.

In the background is the transistor radio that I use to tune in Heritage radio out of Yarmouth, ME.
Does anyone even remember transistor radios anymore?

More Chaplin

2009-04-07T08:52:00.000-07:00

Charlie Chaplin's The Circus bought at Bull Moose Music

$15.?? (I can't remember)

I've never actually seen this movie. I'm building up a great silent movie collection.

Dennis2 has been admonishing me for buying so much stuff!

Hi, Dennis.

A Woman A Man Walked By

2009-04-07T08:45:00.000-07:00

PJ Harvey & John Parish 'A Woman A Man Walked By' album and single bought online Townsend Records

$29.13 (both items including shipping)

I got these from England. I'm in love with Polly Harvey.

It's a pretty amazing album, the more I listen to it the more I love it.
Standout tracks are Black Hearted Love, Sixteen Fifteen Fourteen, and A Woman A Man Walked By/The Crow... "Sucking on a little pea"

The single hasn't arrived yet as it's not released until April 13th but I'll post it when it's here.

Update 4/14/09: The single is here! I love getting mail that says 'Royal Mail'. Within a Month and False Fire are great songs.

Unicorn shirt!

2009-03-29T10:56:00.000-07:00

Unicorn shirt bought at Material Objects

$9.45 (plus tax)

It's a crazy shirt. I don't know where I'll wear it but I had to have it.

Louise Brooks! again!

2009-03-29T10:52:00.001-07:00

Portrait of an Anti-Star bought on Amazon.com

$28.99 (including shipping)

As far as I know this book is out-of-print. It's a nice addition to my LB collection.

Shipping and handling is why I try not to buy online.
It's cheaper to order it from your local stores.

Interested in Louise Brooks? Check out the LB society;
www.pandorasbox.com

Cd

2009-03-29T10:48:00.000-07:00

Mary Jane Lamond's Lan Duil bought on Amazon.com

$6.81 (including shipping)

I've been looking for this cd in my local music stores with no luck so I bought it online.

Buying online is okay if you can't get it locally.

Otherwise, try to buy locally. It's better for the economy.

1st Edition Book (American)

2009-03-19T09:43:00.000-07:00

American first edition of Richard Adams' The Plague Dogs bought at Yes Books

$26.25 (including tax)

There is a British edition that came before this one but this is the first American edition of this book. That's important to know.
On ebay it's being sold for $75 right now, so I got a deal on it.

It's in good condition with only a few minor flaws (sun damage).

Inside the book I found the following school request form from who I assume was the original owner of this book. I wonder where she is now?

Louise Brooks Shirt

2009-03-17T10:09:00.001-07:00

Louise Brooks shirt bought at cafepress.com

$26.99 (including tax & shipping)

I've been looking for a good Louise Brooks shirt for a while now.
I realized the other day that because I haven't been spending much money I seem to have quite a bit of it. So I went on a bit of an online spending spree.
I'll post the items as they arrive.

Coin Wrap

2009-03-16T07:26:00.000-07:00

Blue Coin Wrap for Belly Dancing bought at Siempre Mas

$14.96 ("original" price $19.95)

Siempre Mas does this thing where they take the new items they just got in, mark it with a price, cross that price out, and then mark it with a lower price. It seems like you're getting a deal or that everything is always on sale but really they're just tricking you into buying something you might not have bought. It's a scam.
But it works for them and most tourists don't know any better.

I bought this for my belly dancing class with Ayperi which was $60 for 7 lessons.
http://raqsayperi.com

Classic Movies

2009-03-04T11:55:00.000-08:00

Four Charlie Chaplin movies (City Lights, The Gold Rush, Modern Times, and The Great Dictator) and Grand Hotel bought at Bull Moose Music

$72.30

Seems like an awful lot of money to be spending during a recession but I just HAD to get these.
Each of the Chaplin films was $14-$15 and Grand Hotel was $8. They were used copies sold to Bull Moose by the family of an elderly man who had passed away. They are all in excellent condition. There goes my spending money for the next two months because this really is the last I'll be spending on frivolous things for a while.

Hat

2009-03-04T05:52:00.001-08:00

Hat made in Peru bought at Queen of Hats

$25.20

This was originally a $40 hat. The Queen of Hats is having a winter sale so I got it for less.
I wanted a cloche hat but I had to settle for this as I would never have an outfit to match nor a reason to wear a cloche.

Wolf

2009-03-04T05:50:00.000-08:00

Guitar Wolf Cd bought at Bull Moose Music

$8.37

A used copy of Loverock. It kinda shows it. Dinged up and all. I listened to it an realized that I don't really like Guitar Wolf's music but I like the idea of them so...

Monkey

2009-03-04T05:45:00.001-08:00

Monkey Journey to the West Cd bought at Bull Moose Music

$14.67

A Chinese opera by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett. I wish I could see it performed but this will have to do.

T-shit and Turtle

2009-02-19T19:47:00.000-08:00

Jellyfish T-shirt and Sea Turtle bought at the New England Aquarium gift shop

$42.83 (w/tax)

Cute little turtle and the best t-shirt there. They only had kid sizes so it worked out for me but not for my gfriend.

Why don't they have adult sizes at the aquarium gift shop? It's a mystery.

The Aquarium!

2009-02-19T19:44:00.000-08:00

Tickets to the New England Aquarium!

$39.90 for two adults

Oh, the aquarium is awesome! Myrtle the Turtle. Lots of weird fish. Too many kids. You should go!

Videoport t-shirt

2009-02-11T17:03:00.000-08:00

Awesome t-shirt bought at Videoport

$15

Videoport is awesome and also happens to be where I make the money to buy this stuff.
If you want a groovy Videoport shirt of your own just let me know!

Classic Horror Dvd

2009-02-11T16:59:00.000-08:00

House on Haunted Hill with Vincent Price bought at Bull Moose Music

$4.17

Big sale at the Bull Moose! It's kinda picked through but you might find a jem like this one.

Striped Sweater

2009-01-26T08:18:00.001-08:00

Sweater bought at The Iele Tree & Time Lag Records

$16

You can never have too many sweaters.

Water Bottles

2009-01-26T08:12:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-20T07:40:00.001-08:00

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

2009-01-15T13:05:00.000-08:00

Digital TV converter bought at Best Buy

$12.49 (using the government $40 discount coupon)

It's the rabbit ears robot Vs the Digital converter!
Who will win? Vote now!

New Glasses

2009-01-15T12:57:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-08T15:12:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-08T15:07:00.000-08:00

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!

2009-01-08T15:03:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-08T15:01:00.000-08:00

Nag Champa bought at Mexicali Blues

$3.15

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

Swtich cover

2009-01-04T08:50:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-04T08:46:00.000-08:00

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!

2009-01-04T08:42:00.000-08:00

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

2009-01-04T08:35:00.000-08:00

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.

Book on Film

2008-12-29T10:23:00.001-08:00

Silent Movies bought at Longfellow Books

$29.89 (w/tax & minus discounts and coupons)

I love silent films. This book is filled with amazing stills and posters from the early part of cinema.
If you're looking for information on a particular actor, like Louise Brooks or Clara Bow, it only gives you a one page write up and a few photos so you might want to think twice about buying it. The original price was $45.

Santa Shirt!

2008-12-21T08:07:00.000-08:00

Santa "I Believe" top and long sleeve oatmeal shirt bought at Target

$21 or thereabouts

I wore this to the Videoport holiday party.
I wish I had a better picture of it. It's my new favorite shirt.

Hellboy

2008-12-21T08:03:00.001-08:00

Hellboy Comics bought at Casablanca Comics

$6.00

It's one of my favorite comics plus I felt guilty coz I didn't pick them up when I should have. They're nice enough to save these for me at Casablanca, I might as well buy them.

X-Mas stuff

2008-12-21T08:01:00.001-08:00

Mailer, bulbs, tree pin, and garland bought at the Good Cause Thrift Store

I heart the good cause. The nuns there are great to people watch.

2008-12-02T09:50:00.000-08:00

Two headsets bought at Radio Shack

$22

I had a coupon for 15% off so I bought these so's I could use Skype.

Movies!

2008-12-02T09:47:00.000-08:00

somewhere around $55?

I got these a week ago and can't remember how much they were but I get a discount so...

Duck and Pumpkin

2008-11-11T11:18:00.001-08:00

Halloween duck and a pumpkin bought at the Christmas Tree Shop

about $4

I couldn't resist.

X-mas Gifts

2008-11-11T11:14:00.000-08:00

So far I've spent about $30 on x-mas gifts.
Sorry there's no pictures but I can't really do that without giving the presents away.

As of 11/20/2008 I've spent an additional $60 on x-mas gifts. I'm only going to spend around $30 more.

So X-Mas total will be around $120-130 dollars.

Great Big Sea

2008-11-11T11:10:00.001-08:00

T-shirt bought at a Great Big Sea concert

$30

Wow. Thirty dollars for a t-shirt. What has the world come to? Still, it is a cool shirt and since it is my favorite happy band I guess it's okay.

Transmetropolitan: Lust for Life

2008-10-21T10:44:00.000-07:00

Transmetropolitan: Lust for Life bought at Casablanca Comics

$15.74

Felt like buying myself something fun. This is fun right? I've had the first one forever and have been meaning to buy this. It's my kind of comic book.

Also, I'm listening to Rock Lobster.

Salem, Ma

2008-10-18T13:58:00.001-07:00

Tourist stuff bought at various shops in Salem, Mass

About $35 bucks

Two buttons, one that has a witch and the other with Lizzy Borden. A witch post card. Handcuff earrings made by local Salem artist Von Wolf.

The t-shirt was the last thing I bought after looking all over Salem for a cool child size tee or a XS adult tee but alas what people now call small used to be medium and as a little lady I can never find chintzy tourist type shirts in my size, ever.

$10 of the above price went to food at a great place called Cafe Kuscho and another $5 went to candy.

Tricky & PJ Harvey

2008-10-18T13:55:00.000-07:00

Tricky Broken Homes single featuring PJ Harvey bought at Bull Moose Music

$2.97 (plus tax)

This song kept playing in my head so I bought it. It's not the greatest song ever but, yeah.

Evangelista T-Shirt

2008-10-08T10:03:00.000-07:00

Evangelista T-Shirts bought through the mail

$25

Two Evangelista t-shirts and some extra surprises. Might just be the last thing you see on here for a while. I really have to tighten my budget and that means no more spending.

Star Trek and Yoko Ono

2008-10-06T08:20:00.001-07:00

Star Trek 2009 Calendar & Yoko Ono Yes I'm A Witch Cd bought at Bull Moose Music

$17.81

I've been re-watching all the old Star Trek episodes and was super ecstatic to find this calendar.
The Ono Cd was only $2.97 so I couldn't pass it up, she collaborates with Le Tigre, Peaches, and many others. It's a riot.

Bikini Kill

2008-10-06T08:15:00.001-07:00

Bikini Kill The Singles bought at Bull Moose Music

$9.67 (I had some store credit so it was $5 off)

I like Bikini Kill and yet I dislike Kathleen Hanna. For some reason I find her annoying. Perhaps it's the articles and interviews I've seen her in, she seems quite insipid.

The great thing about this album is that Joan Jett is on a few tracks including Rebel Girl.

Ice Cream

2008-10-03T10:02:00.000-07:00

Ice Cream bought at Mable's

$3.55

I don't care that they call it Gelato or some such nonsense, it's ice cream.

Bus Ticket

2008-09-24T14:12:00.000-07:00

Metro TenRide Ticket bought at the Metro Pulse

$11

I take the bus fairly often so this is a bit cheaper than paying for the $1.25 fare each time.

Cookie & Tea

2008-09-24T14:10:00.001-07:00

Tea & Chocolate Chip Cookie bought at Maple's

$2.25

Yum.

Comic Book

2008-09-22T07:06:00.000-07:00

Tank Girl: Visions of Booga #4 bought at Casablanca Comics

$3.99

Damn, comics are expensive these days! Four dollars for a comic book! Didn't they used to be 25 cents? Crazy.

Cd-R

2008-09-22T07:05:00.001-07:00

Four Cd-Rs bought at Videoport

NY Daily News bought at Joe's
Twin size Sheets & Curtain bought at The Good Cause Thrift Shop

$.75 for the paper
$3.50 for the sheets & Curtain

The curtain was half off with good reason for it had a tear in it. It didn't really matter because I used them to cover the lettuce and swiss chard in the garden as we are going to have an early frost tonight.

Necklace

2008-09-17T13:52:00.002-07:00

Turquoise necklace bought at Clay City

$10.50

I needed it to go with my outfit for my girlfriends birthday which is coming up.
Yeah, yeah. I didn't really need it. I just wanted it. I know. Lame consumer capitalist materialistic woman. Still, it's now mine.
And it looks great on me.

Lunch With My Sister

2008-09-17T13:52:00.001-07:00

Chips & Guacamole, Pesto Chicken Quesadillas, Pepsi, and a Banana Smoothie bought at Mesa Verde

$29.85 plus $10 tip*

We kinda went dutch on this one. She paid $23 making my share $16.85. I don't really feel bad for paying less because I usually buy her breakfast when she comes to town.
Does this make me a bad sister?

*Is this a good tip? She was a good waitress and she even called my work to tell them my sister left her glasses behind. (She recognized me when we came in as the "video store girl")

Paper and Lottery Ticket

2008-09-17T13:52:00.000-07:00

Newspaper

2008-09-15T10:05:00.001-07:00

$.75

It's got better comics than the Post.

Pumpkin String Decoration, Bubble Bath, Baby Ruth, Ibuprofen, and Halloween Zipper bags bought at The Dollar Tree Store
Dr Pepper bought at Joe's Smoke Shop

$7.30 (the whole thing)

We went down to the hillbilly mall today. I didn't really need any of this stuff except for maybe the ibuprofen but I got it anyway.
I love Halloween.

Folders

2008-09-12T06:04:00.000-07:00

Recycled hanging Folders (25) bought at Office Depot

$9.96

These were actually cheaper than the non-recycled hanging folders.
Now maybe I'll get around to organizing my papers.

2008-09-09T10:21:00.001-07:00

Hot Chocolate bought at Coffee By Design
NY Daily News and Lottery ticket bought at Joe's Smoke Shop
Sno Balls bought at 7/11

$5.62 (the whole lot)

Okay, so it's raining outside and I'm feeling like a junk food addict. This blog is making me realize how much crap I eat.
I swear I eat healthy stuff. I even had a salad for lunch today and I'm bringing another salad to work for tonight.

Update: The lotto ticket was a winner! But just a buck so I used it to get another lotto ticket from Joe's.

2008-09-07T16:27:00.001-07:00

Nantucket Nectar Big Cranberry bought at The Works Cafe
Chips Ahoy and Uncle Ray's Chips bought at the Corner General Store

$6.50 (the whole lot)

Um... perhaps it's best not to say too much about my junk food habit anymore.
The cranberry juice is good for me, right?

Tea & Cookie

2008-09-07T16:22:00.001-07:00

Green Tea and Chocolate Chip cookie bought at Maple's Organics

$3.48 (w/tax)

Shoes & Undergarments

2008-09-06T10:20:00.001-07:00

Turquoise Sydney Shoes & various undergarments bought at Target

$67.14 (grand total)

I didn't really need these shoes but I really couldn't pass them by. They are so cute! I don't know what I'll wear them with and they're not really something I could wear to work but I had to have them.
The undergarments are a necessity and I didn't really plan to include necessities but since I did say I'm posting everything I buy, here they are.

Newspaper

2008-09-04T11:05:00.001-07:00

Portland Press Herald bought at Dunkin Donuts

60 cents

I normally wouldn't go into DD but I didn't have any change and when I saw the headline "Man tried to rent girl, 12, for sex, police say" I had to get it. I couldn't believe this shit still goes on.

As for Palin, what a fucking joke.
Because of her I'm voting for Obama.

Toothbrush

2008-09-03T13:54:00.001-07:00

Preserve Toothbrush bought at Whole Foods

$2.72 (w/tax)

Last night I dropped my toothbrush into the toilet, a rather silly thing to do but it can be said that I often do such silly things. I prefer Preserve toothbrushes because you can get a mailer and send them back to be recycled.

Recycling is fun.

Envelopes

2008-09-03T13:50:00.001-07:00

4 Clasp Envelopes bought at CVS

$1.88 (including tax)

I went to the library to print out an application for a job (the printout cost me 80 cents) and realized I needed an envelope to mail it in. So there you go.

Tea

2008-09-03T13:47:00.000-07:00

Green Tea bought at Zarra's Monumental Coffeehouse

$1.61

Zarra is a cool guy. I love his coffeehouse for it's quaint atmosphere and this lovely hole in the wall. I hope it will never be fixed.

Cd, Zine, & Buttons

$17.01 (cost of Cd + money order)

Danger! Hole Zine #4, & D!H Zine buttons sent money through mail to Liouxsie in New Jersey

$4 (1 zine + 2 buttons)

I've been meaning to send away for this stuff for a while but am just now getting to it. The photo is of the letter I sent Queer Control and issues of D!H zine that I already have. Pretty great stuff. You can find Danger! Hole Zine on myspace.

Update: 8 Inch Betsy cd came today 9/15/08 with two stickers.

Tea & Cake

2008-09-02T07:57:00.000-07:00

Peppermint Tea and Lemon Tea Cake bought at Breaking New Grounds

$5.05 (w/tax)

Kinda pricey right? This is one of my downfalls. I get hungry and need to eat something so I eat crap. At least I got off the coffee.

My sweet tooth needs to rot.

Apple & Cheese

2008-09-02T07:53:00.000-07:00

Apple & Granda Biraghi Cheese bought at the Public Market House

$3.00 (it was $3.03 but they had a penny jar)

Locally grown apple and some funky picnic cheese. I brought a salad for lunch but was really hungry and stopped to get these on the way to work. The cheese was kinda gross but I wanted to try something different.

Water

2008-09-01T06:04:00.001-07:00

Poland Spring water 1L bought at the Corner General Store

$2.35 (including tax & bottle deposit)

How decadent of me to be able to afford a bottle of pricey spring water. This is probably why people in other countries think we're nuts.
Good water though.

Sebago Lake Stuff

2008-09-01T05:59:00.001-07:00

Stuff for a trip to Sebago Lake bought at Joe's Smoke Shop

$8.69 (the whole lot)

These are all the things you need for a great day at the beach: Pringles, Smart food, Lipton Lemon Tea, Life&Style mag, and The NY Daily News.
Well sure you also need sun screen, beach towels, and sunglasses but we already had those things.

CD-R

2008-09-01T05:54:00.001-07:00

CD-R for Music bought at Bull Moose Music.

$3.94 (3 of them plus tax)

Yet again an item my girlfriend asked me to pick up for her. She makes a lot of mixed Cd's.

Lettuce

2008-08-30T07:28:00.001-07:00

Lettuce Seedlings bought at the Deering Oaks farmers market.

$6.30 (two containers, including tax)

There are six lettuce seedlings in this pack. It's way cheaper to grow your own veggies. We've been growing a bunch of swiss chard from seeds. Did you know swiss chard is $3.50 for a small bunch at Hannaford? Crazy.

Dvd Case

2008-08-30T07:23:00.001-07:00

Amaray Dvd Case bought at Videoport.

$1.67 (including tax)

I bought this case for my girlfriend. She's gonna pay me back but I figure since I used my money to buy it I should include it in my purchases.

Belt and Necklace

2008-08-29T12:22:00.000-07:00

Belt and Wooden Necklace bought at the Iele Tree & Time Lag Records

$8 (each)

The belt is a little big but I think I can get it to work. It says "Tanjay" and "16" on the inside of it.

The necklace is wooden with a metal chain and clasp.

Highwaisted Shorts

2008-08-29T12:14:00.000-07:00

Highwaisted Shorts bought at Material Objects.

$13.13 (including tax)

Well worth the price, I think. How often will I be able to find such a lovely pair of crazy trousers?

The only issue is the top (which I cinched in the picture w/a safety pin) because it's too big. I've a very tiny waist so I'll have to alter them.
