Overall between my last entry and this, got some stuff despite slow down due to heat.  Partially why I got those manga, the one shot Time Lag and She Loves to Cook, She Loves to Eat V1-4.  Both cases I read them all through library copies first.

I bought this week's groceries from the store and a big chicken meal box for lunch named after a money-making YouTube celebrity

The annoying heat is putting all of us on a long and busy run.  Gotta ask if you've been to any comic stores, have you noticed the trend of classic/active rock songs they've been playing inside of them?

Not any of mine

A few days ago, I bought a cheap second hand 128GB SSD for a free laptop that I got recently (a Lenovo Thinkpad T61), it came today and I was surprised to see that it was one of those rare SSDs with a 9.5mm height enclosure, which is perfect because that matches the height of the original hard drive.

Yesterday I ordered a Nintendo OEM SNES controller in heavily used condition for a restoration project with a brand new Atomic Purple controller shell from Retro Game Restore, neither of them shipped yet, but they should be shipping soon.

Umm, I recently bought a cheap little ukulele but it was so cheap I couldn’t use it at all. So I sent it back and got three ukes to replace it. They’re more expensive, but saving money means nothing if I can’t play a note, which was the case with my first uke. I know, I didn’t need three, but circumstances compelled me against logic (nothing unusual for me). In other words, they were so pretty I couldn’t resist.

I bought a Beretta M9A4 and some 9X19mm ammunition.

I bought a 4' folding table to put in my extra junk on (and under). I need to organize so hopefully this'll help. It's not very pretty so maybe I'll get a cheap little table cloth for it.

Yesterday it was dinner from Wendy's and got a Frosty with it

from one bad financial choice to another. 
 

Alright, for real though, I actually have a particular fondness for this character, as  this was one of the first Transformers figures I ever got when the movie came out(which I actually still have)

I also have a folding camping table for the exact same purpose.

(Originally it was to work on, but has ended up as 'storage'. Of course.)

 

Mine: not terribly exciting. Yet a few more bits to go onto the Bantam. At the moment I'm still wrestling with how to mount a rearview mirror.

A pair of orange coloured wide legged trousers and two short sleeve tops. One white and the other also white but with roses.

I purchased some books.

[Antiyonder 464]

Nightlight was an earlier Bingo prize I kept forgetting to put in earlier pics.

The MLP stuff my mom found at a thrift store and my purchases being the GN.  Barring the 3rd Volume of Paws, the rest I checked out from the library before.  Paws being described as a Baby Sitters Club, but petsitting.

Bought more retro games on ebay. Got Fifa 2001 and Tiger Woods PGA tour 2001.

A very expensive supply of groceries, fortunately coupons got used  

[Dreambiscuit 8,987]

I bought a Taurus G3C handgun for my mom. I wanted her to have something for home defense so I got her this little pistol (plus an extra box of ammo) for a great price. It’s worth a little peace of mind. Besides, I like guns and it was fun shopping for one.

I purchased various things on the weekend:

• Snacks.
• Groceries.
• Gasoline (refuel car).
• 500 rounds of 9X19mm ammunition.
• A shoulder holster (will fit Glock 17, Glock 19, Glock 26).
• A 500 lumen tactical flashlight.
• A new Otterbox and glass screen protector for my phone (old one is worn, and the screen protector is slightly cracked).
• Shooting targets.
• Cat toys.
• A hardcover copy of The Complete Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant: The Complete Annotated Edition.

Yep, the small object left of the Wonder Woman trade is Scrooge's Number One Dime.
