There's something rather enjoyable about working on your lawn I'm finding, also I love how the guy at Lowe's couldn't believe I fit all that stuff in the back of my car. God bless those crafty Swedes and their engineering.
I agree. I love working outside keeping up with lawn, flowers, and landscaping. Feels so rewarding to have a truly nice yard. The Black and Decker edger / weed wacker I purchased recently works wonderful. Gets a really nice clean edge with very little effort. I have tried at least 4 different ones and the B & D worked the best and was only $50.00.

You're probably going to have to return them, I'm afraid. They run a full size too small. I normally wear 10s and I had to get 11s.



Most comfortable shoes I've ever had, though. Makes those Under Armours I spent $30 in October feel like walking on planks.
I might be okay. I usually wear 11s and decided to go with 12s. Lately I am noticing most shoes seem to be smaller than they say. Either that or my feet started to grow again. So now I have been playing it safe and going with 1 size larger.
 
My original Logitech G11 finally stopped working today (read, I broke it when cleaning it), so I needed a cheap-ish keyboard to us at work so I don't have to use those awful slimline ones they have there (which my G11 was replacing).

Sorted
 
Two large boxes greeted me today when I got home from work. :D

One containing this:

My new mixer, I'll be using this for band practice along with stage monitors (which I need to buy next). Set me back $640, but it's really good. I can use it for band practice, live, and recording. :D

The other box containing this.

Yep, I took the plundge and went for a G27.

And on the side, my two Jimmy Eat World albums, my two Threshold albums, and my new Edguy CD (Finally!!!) arrived. An excellent week this is turning into. :D

It's like Christmas! But without having to give people anything... Blasted people. :P Aaah the wonders of having a full time job.
 
Bought this

(only the table, not the other stuff). I wanted a workspace and a spot for my PC. When it arrived the other day, it was a bit bigger than I thought.
 
I have more cameras. Shouldn't be a shock. Oddly enough they're both 3D ones. I got a Nishika N8000, and a Kodak Stereo at a Flea Market for $35, with the box, instructions and everything. Was a bit shocked to see it be worth around $300.

not my picture, but I feel too lazy to actually take one myself.

Got some of them, what I think the kids call, "new kicks"
Yeah mine came in! Fast shipping and excellent quality. I went with size 12 and they fit perfect. :D
I only plan to wear these on days when it is not raining and perfectly sunny. Gotta keep the white clean as long as possible. Especially the white laces.

Hard to tell from the pics but the blue is very close to the color of my WRX when it is in direct sunlight and the pearl is shining. :D

Nice, that's one of the Tissots I was looking at when buying mine.
If you don't know about it you can share more info on them in this thread here.
Thanks! I didn't know GTP had a watch thread, so I'll post them there. Your Tissot PRS 330 looks epic, too. 👍

Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess isn't exactly a recent purchase, bought it online a few months ago, but all the others are. Got them at book stores in Amherst/North Hampton. Lasker and Fischer are the only new books in this picture, the rest are used because used book stores are awesome.
 
So yeah:

Got my copy thanks to my contancts in the harbour area, should be writting a review of it in a few days, one of the very few reason I bought the PS4, here I`m hoping to be worth the investment.

(Signature edition, pretty ridiculous the amounts of pre order versions, at the last I got a bitching white coat).
