Recent Purchases

I don't want to say that I have been on a spending spree as of late but, I have had some fun purchases lately. First is this issue of Men's Health. I don't normally buy a Men's Health type of magazine because it only has pictures of men who I know I will never look like.

I was looking for new routine and picked it up to see what they had to offer. I get home and start reading and it turns out that it is the "British Edition" I didn't even notice the small text in the upper right. Regardless, I still read the magazine and got some great advice as wel as some eye candy.

I also learned that over in jolly ole' England they measure weight by kits and stones. I had no idea what it was until I googled it. 1 stone equals 14 lbs.

My next purchase was by impulse. I was on Amazon.com and saw that "The West Wing: The Complete Series" was on sale for $150. It usually goes for around $300 so I decided to buy it.

I forgot how GREAT the writing was on this show. I have always been fascinated with the office of the President and this series is a great look in on American politics. Since there isn't really much on television right now, this is helping me out.

Last I bought these Gascan Oakleys. I walked in and was trying on a whole bunch of sunglasses. After about 20 minutes he brought these out of a drawer and I said I would take them. They are very comfortable and stand out because they are so white. I have been back to the store twice to look at other styles and think I might start buying more sunglasses.
