Q: What’s the most you’ve paid for a meal?
A: I don’t remember money, I remember experiences. I’ve had a lot of amazing, incredible food with my friends.

I Tweet, Therefore I Need Attention
The only person who is allowed to have no respect for me is me. Everyone else better fucking salute when I walk by.

Algeos Catalogue
I just received an Algeos catalogue full of industrial tools and materials used in shoemaking, and I feel as giddy as a kid in a candy story.
Oooooo pliers! Cellulose board and thermoplastics! Oh my god I’m geeking out over polychloroprene contact adhesives! Is that a heat gun? MINE! Oh a closing hammer, I’ll need that. A paring knife? Sure. Leather sheers? Gimme. Oh my god, aluminium...
