After years of resistance I finally bought a bluetooth earpiece. Despite the :flabbynsick:look this thing is amazing. Screen calls without taking my phone out of my pocket. Listen to podcasts at work and still have my left ear free to make calls. Take a business call while young ma blasting in my right ear:whew:

:ahh:Cheap as fukking chips but have upgraded my style in a MAJOR way. I've had way more expensive watches, but the novelty of the wood watches causes people to ask about
them when I wear them. These instantly improve the coordination my outfits, and going forward, I will be wearing watches. Smart watches look corny, and faces with numbers ain't my
thing, and now I can eyeball these and know the time within a minute of accuracy. Can't wait to replace my glasses and experiment further with sweaters and dress shirts.

Trust me, the details make a difference ouchere.
Bruh I have to do presentations at work and I realized how tacky it looked when other presenters would pull their phones out to keep track of time so I copped one of these out of the Amazon return bin for $20. Its dope because its so light you can barely feel it on your wrist. I'm seriously thinking about coming out with my own line of wood watches. I got the ebony wood. Clean with everything I wear:whew:

I write in cursive when its notes to myself or for anything that only I'll see. I do that alot and fountain pens help a gang...this Waterman is prolly my favorite behind my Lamy Safari.
:salute: I have a Pilot Metropolitan and a TWSBI Eco that haven't let me down yet. I plan on getting a Pilot Vanishing Point or Falcon soon.

The thought crossed my mind just now. I don't have one but for you people who walk to work or whatever when it's dark out get a high vis jacket. I almost ran some lady over yesterday because she was wearing dark clothes. I didn't see her until I was literally right next to her :merchant:

I had a couple Metropolitans I hate that squeeze cartridge so I always try to find a piston or a twist cartridge. My nibs kept bending on them too. :manny:

My Lamy is a workhorse thought....its great.

Picked up this Under Armour Magnetic Mount, to mount your phone to any gym equipment. Record your workouts and check your form, etc. It's $20 from Walmart. It's adjustable so works on all phones.

Im grinding on computers at work and on my blog so I alwasy have tired eyes at night, eyes are dry and irritated...I started getting oil based eyedrops and an ice pack for my eyes

Absolutely night and day, my eyes feel so much better. I leave it in the freezer and wear it at night for 10 min

:wow:

Yo breh:whew: I just copped the same one off Amazon. U can even throw it in the microwave for heat. Not only does it help with eye strain and bags under the eyes, but I get the greatest fukking naps because it blocks out all light.:whew:

I picked up a CON-50 when I bought it, never touched the squeeze converter. I have some low cost Chinese pens kicking around but they're too heavy to write with for a long time. I get the Goulet Pens newsletter every now and then and man :whew: if I wasn't disciplined on my spending...

Straight up my favorite purchase in a long time. Food tastes better. My breath is dramatically fresher, and I don't have the bad taste in my mouth that would cause me to snack to
get rid of it. I do it 2-3 times a day now and can never go back.
