Nice week!
Went shopping Friday with an acquaintance whom I suppose has taken a small step towards 'friend' because of it. Ross. Limited myself to $100 so we were able to get 5 nice shirts, a pair of jeans and a pair of open toe shoes. Platforms? They're raised at an angle but it's one piece instead of a heel. I still gotta work on my girl vocab I guess. I also got a purse (Dereon, which is apparently Beonce's label, retailed at $90) for $40 - which I got Stuart to agree to pay for. That is a milestone. :P I guess that's one of the things a woman is supposed to do; have her guy buy her things, so this was a milestone for the two of us, haha. But Stuart knows he's lucky - I don't ask for much. I like to be able to support myself and any extra goodies I want.
Also exciting this week was the fact that two projects I was backing on www.kickstarter.com (you will see that website a lot if you decide to follow this) finished up this week, reaching - and exceeding - their goals.
The one I'm VERY excited about is The Word Project, which you can read up on it here or follow the artist on facebook here. I shall be receiving her wonderfully creative book, a poster, and a collection of 5 flashcards. What a wonderful idea. :D The art is so original and fun. I just had to own it and support her.
The other that closed was a project that earned me the first book of author Andrew Fitzgerald. His project was to get backers to pledge a certain amount which yielded them a certain amount of control over what he would write 5 short stories on (to promote his book); one per week. Well it's closed now so I'll be getting a signed book soon. Perhaps I'll tell you what I think once I've read it.
Okay, gotta get back to work now.
Thanks for reading.
