My new watch

Army of Dad is so sweet sometimes. In the melee of returning to work and having the infection explode from my healing incision back in June, I lost my watch that AoD had given me for my birthday about seven years ago. I wasn't sure what made me sicker - the infection or the loss of a gift that he had given me. It was really pretty, too. A really nice Bulova watch that he picked out on his own.

So, earlier this year, his folks gave us a gift certificate for amazon.com for our anniversary. We kept waffling on what to get and hadn't used it, so AoD told me to use it to get a new watch. So, I did and even had enough money to get me a copy of Just a Geek by Wil Wheaton, too. I read my Dancing Barefoot in June and loved it and have been wanting to read this one, too.

Here is the watch I ordered tonight:


And, yes, the 69 percent off comment is just a bonus for my pervy nature.

    Oh, looks nice...maybe even nicer than the one I gave you.

    Definitely not as nice as the one AoD gave me, but it will do the job and the price was right.

    Thanks, Alli.

    I have no idea why, but I've got 6 or 7 watches in my jewelry box. I guess I collect them like some women collect shoes.

    I should have just gotten one of your watches, I guess. I have several watches, too, but most don't work or are ugly. I've started letting Stinkerbelle play with them.

    Still waiting for my watch and book to arrive, but I did get free shipping on the watch and cheap shipping on the book, so I guess I'll get to sit and wait.
