Ladies and gents, I am now officially part of a flat share in the 9th district (by St Lazare and Auber and Trinité, for those of you who know Paris), which is such a weight off my shoulders. I now know where I will live come the end of August. Woot!

Now, I just thought I'd share an excerpt from my new watch's guarantee:

Caring for your Leather Band:

Remember, leather is a cured portion of what was once a living, regenerating organ of a large land mammal. Ever since the leather that is now hugging your wrist was scraped off a carcass, it has lost blood flow, and thus lost its abilities to heal. So, avoid any of the following harm to your leather band.


Yaddi yaddi yadda, the rest is boring, but god, trying to make me feel bad for wearing leather much? (Tough luck.)

Wow, for people that sell leather, that's pretty. Harsh. I kinda love the "large land mammal" description though. Just so you know your watch wasn't a cat.

While I am semi-vegetarian, Matt refuses to wear leather, making him win that moral battle. However, I FUCKING LOVE my little red leather purse! It can't be helped!

Also, woooo flatshare! Do you know the people you'll be living with?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YOUR ICON. Although it makes him not cute, which is a damn shame. *cuddles her Sylar* *what?*

I personally thought it was made out of bat before they said that. I am neither semi-vegetarian nor anything even vaguely resembling it. I enjoy meat! A lot. And leather. A lot, too. I am unrepentant. :D

Not at all! That's the fun part!

Yeah, that's kind of...is the advertising copy writer a militant vegetarian, by any chance?

And yay! on the flat finding.

He has to be, I see no other explanation. Seriously, wtf.

Hee!

Flat yaaaaaaay!

You know, if someone has an opinion such as the one you posted, that is fine. Everyone is allowed to have said opinions. It is when you take that opinion and you try to force it on others, that is what really irks me just a wee bit. Just a bit harsh, aye?

Yay indeed!

Well, it's not like anybody that bought a leather watch is suddenly gonna go "oh my GOD it's TRUE I'm wearing the skin of a LARGE LAND MAMMAL *tears watch off and starts sobbing*", you know? So mostly I find it hilarious.

But you know what? If someone did react like that with their watch, it would be hilarious to see! I'd enjoy it, with popcorn. Hee.

I JUST WANTED TO SAY "ARRONDISSEMENT."

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Yikes, who wrote the care instructions for that? PETA?

I know, right? It's rather wonderful.

Happy B-Day

The subject says it all, but I'll say it again for S&G's HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
