Some new records, including this gorgeous translucent green 12"...

A quality lightweight 10/22 bolt especially for subsonic rounds: Firefly Bolt 2.0

Just this morning, took my time poopin a poop

New shower head. Can’t wait for it to show up.

My girlfriend and I had a weekend vacation based on food, wine, weed, walking in the woods and a night at the observatory for a guided stargaze. Wasn't cheap but we really needed it.

I preordered the new Katamari game that's coming out next week. I'm very excited!

I bought a bambino plus espresso machine with a vs3 grinder!

Will be fun to get real coffee at home.

A nice hike in the Tramuntana, in a long interval between thunderstorms.

Canceling going to a birthday party.

Canceling going grocery shopping.

I bought a 12€ Smartwatch recently. (Crazy what you can get for very little money.)

A new eyeshadow palette, highlighter, and two lip products. Here's a photo from the brand's promotional materials because I haven't received the shipment yet:

Bought some lavender bubble bath and had a 2 hour hot bath with a book and relaxing music.

Comic-Con. Had a blast.

£10 ear buds, my 10yr old ones kind of still work but don't disconnect when they go back in the charger so are frustrating as hell. Worth it

Ordered some nice handmade leatherworking knives.

The irony of it is that I accidentally sliced off a sliver of fingertip the other day with my current one. Damn things are like miniature guillotines, but if nothing else, it's a testament to my ability to sharpen a round knife

Made cookie brownies (brookies?). They were pretty good.

Three ingredient peanutbutter cookies.

I got my nails done. I’ve only had fake nails once, but I went to a wedding and I wanted to look nice. I got gel nails in dark blue with a cat eye finish. The ladies at the salon were super helpful and picked out a good color that matched my dress. It was awesome, but I don’t regularly pay $85+ for something that only lasts 2 weeks. I’ll get them removed in a week and get a basic manicure to help my nails recover.

They do look pretty fabulous though 💅

I'm slowly allowing myself to eat more after a long history of dealing with an ED :)

Pasta roller. Not a super fancy one. Made some whole wheat pasta yesterday with some pesto from a friends basil garden.

I bought a new soldering iron, though I had a few before this. They were usually the cheapest I could find. This time however I splurged a bit and bought one with temperature control.

It's Friday afternoon. Good time for beer and papadums.

An absolutely delicious banh mi. Also drugs.

A motorcycle, always wanted one and figured now is a good time.

Bought a wireless pciexpress dual network card for my desktop pc. I didn't really need it because I had already a USB 2.4ghz wireless network adapter. But this new one can achieve more speed and make my router work for it in the 5ghz wifi . So it was like a treat.

I bought a silly game that just launched called Escape From Duckov. Played it for three hours straight! It's kinda addicting.

I had a margariga in a glass as tall as me.

Lunch.

ICECREAM. the answer is always icecream with me

I've been getting Dental work done recently, and it's across the street from a harbor freight, so after each appointment I've been going there and buying a tool or two. Just bought a flex head ratchet yesterday.

It's better than buying fast food i tell myself, which I've stopped doing for the most part. (If I'm out and about with people, or there's something limited time that I want to try sure, but otherwise i haven't bought any in a couple months)

I did well on a couple interviews today so I walked down to the local cafe and had a chai latte and a maple bar.

Tomorrow, if I do well on that interview, I'll go walk downtown and get lunch at the local thai restaurant I like!
