My Stuff

This is the stuff that hangs out in my pockets. Well, except for the watch. It likes to hang out on my wrist.

Superman! Need I say more? Hahaha! I'll be looking forward to the vintage pieces, but I doubt I'll be purchasing anything online. To be honest....I don't know how to! Eeep! So there I said it! Now don't make fun of me or I'm gonna use your knife against Barnaby! (Don't worry, I won't. The worst I would do is just kidnap him) :P

And if I ever find a random box of custard puffs, I'll remember what you said. :) And then jump up and down like a kid in a candy store and gobble em up with glee!

See that's why I carry one, so when a pretty girl needs to open a box or cut a loose thread I can swoop in and save the day. It'll take me a while to make it all the way to Brunei so we might have to plan to cut any lose threads in advance. The thing with owning a knife is that sooner or later you WILL end up cutting yourself with it. Appropriately enough, the first thing that knife in the picture cut was me.

Didn't even occur to me, but that dollar does look like it could be a playing card. The higher the value the more colorful our money gets. Most people don't really bother trying to counterfeit a single dollar bill.

The gallery I hang my stuff in sells vintage jewelry and accessories as well as art. I'll have to remember that your into vintage when I help the owner set up a website. I'll might be able to give you a sneak peek at some of it. She's been trying to give me some to show her appreciation for the work I've done for her. On a side note, one day you're gonna end up with a box full of custard puffs at your door when you get home from work.

LMAO! Well, now that you caught me, I can't pretend that I'm not interested in your pocket knife! LoL! Haha, fun aside, I'm not one who would carry one. They scare me. Though I do think some are pretty cool, but nope. Not for me. And secondly, I thought those underneath the knife were a deck of cards! I forgot your currency's green on your side of the earth!!! Hahaha! My bad!

I like vintage too. Vintage accessories that is. It's a girl thing. Haha! And I know how you feel about first impressions. No worries, it's nice to have a little mystery in there. So.....I did pretty good eh? Custard puffs! Hahaha! I kid I kid >.>

Well, I think you did pretty good. Especially, since I tend to carry the least amount of stuff I can get away with.

1. My memory is kind of unreliable which is why I carry a notepad instead of a proper wallet. I've been known to doodle in it on occasion though.
2. Absolutely!
3. Be honest, you just want to borrow my knife so you can expand your collection of fingers. I think of the knife as more of a tool than in the context of personal protection. The world isn't as dangerous as people like to think. It makes a good money clip too. That being said, I guess I should point out the fact that when I'm shooting at night or in an abandoned building I tend to carry a knife twice that size.
4. I think you think my business cards are playing cards? Although, I did play a lot of cards back in high school.
5. That's right. Although, I have a strong appreciation of the old fashioned way of doing things.The appreciation of vintage things seems to play a big part in the contemporary world these days. So in a weird way, I am contemporary.
6. I think there are plenty of things out there that are just as good if not better than all of the Apple products out there, it's just that people are too lazy to actually look. Mine has a 8 megapixel camera which, at the time, was the best camera out there. I noticed your Sony Ericsson too. You've got good taste. ;)
7. It's blue. I'm not sure how all that black crept in there.
8. Yep, that and I've locked my keys in my car one too many times. I always like having a back up plan.
9. My watch is cooler than it looks, it's solar powered.
10. Yep, I learned a while back that you have to learn to laugh at the world or you'll just end up miserable.
11. Cute eh? :D Well, I guess it'll be a while before you get to see what I look like. ; ) I'm not really that narcissistic though, but I can see why you would think that. Over the past few years I've become very aware of the type of first impression I make. People often make the mistake of seeing as a bear instead of the teddy bear people who know me know me to be.

Yep, you did pretty good. I'll have to test you again to see if you can keep it up ; P

It's about time I respond. :P
1. You like to take down notes. And when you feel like it, you doodle for some inspiration, for the creative in you!
2. You're very professional with what you do.
3. You like to be safe, and have a fetish for sharp objects. :P
4. When you're bored you like to play cards. Your favourite's either poker or blackjack. Or even better, you do magic tricks!
5. You're very neat and minimalistic, but at the same time contemporary.
6. You don't succumb to the whole I-must-have-an-iPhone craze. You're good with just a Sony Ericsson. (Like me!)
7. Your favourite colour is blue. Or turqoise. Or black.
8. You keep an extra key in your wallet for extra measure, which means you're a very careful and prepared person.
9. You like it when people ask you for the time, so you can spring out your cool watch and tell them in a very cool manner, "It's.....half past eight."
10. You're a joker. (From the looks of the squid pretending to be a loch ness)
11. You're narcissistic(albeit cute), cause you must have your face pretty much everywhere.

I hope I got most of it right! Hehe!
