It’s nice to see you’re wanting stuff. Me, too! After a few years of the blahs, there are some really great things right now. I’ll have to wait for the Barney’s Warehouse Sale in March to get anything, though.

There are plastic cases like i-phone covers etc. I find it all quite bizarre. Though, thinking about it, not quite as bizarre as my Mum’s giant candy jar full of tampons that sits on the edge of her bath. Obviously she isn’t getting the ‘be ashamed of your period’ marketing ideology. Thank fuck she recently went through the menopause. She had my brother quite confused as a child. I remember him confessing to me that he didn’t think tampons did a very good job of wiping his butt. I guess he thought if they were sitting out on display they must have had a general purpose for everyone.

My wife doesn’t like things that are too “matchy-matchy.” Monochrome falls into that category.

JK – Oooooh, I would love curtains like the bedspread – very Asian Brothel, and great with lavender walls.

annemarie – You think? I guess I should find out what that suit costs.

Patni – Yep, yep.

Suspended – I hear you, but I’m curious about the tampax. Do they come in designy boxes now? And why can’t your wife see the beauty of monochrome?!

Jaimi – Naw, the fighting part is just stupid.

Jenny – I hear that Topshop for men is pretty good.

kt – Let me know if you score something.

Anne – Ok, so we’re on for the bedspread!

Danielle – I’m very suspicious about the fabrics they used for this collection. If it’s shitty polyester or a shitty blend, I could never stand to wear it.

Stacy – I’ll try to get rid of them but what about the girls wrapped in long neck scarves on a hot sunny day??

I’ve an acquaintance who inevitably gives me weirdo ties at Christmastime – a set as described would be wonderful in her lavendar painted room.
