These are my obsessions


#121

this isn’t creepy at all


#122

:wink:


#123


Done!

Her eyes came in the mail!


#125

I had my Hohner HG200 (I think it was made in the 70s or 80s, hard to say; all laminate construction) acoustic guitar in the shop for a number of things: new frets (stainless steel), new nut (tusq), and reshaping the saddle (also tusq; I had tried the shaping myself almost a year ago, and it was decent, but not perfect). I just got it back yesterday, and it looks and sounds great:

I also just purchased my first high end watch. I spent a lot of time (no pun intended…) learning about watches and how they work, and definitely happy with what I decided on: Tudor 1926, 41-mm case, opaline dial with blue numerals/indices (which are metal, not painted on); 100 m water resistance; automatic (self-winding) movement.

Very nice.


#128

You’re wearing it on the wrong wrist however…


#129

(perhaps you’re just poking fun, but I may as well point out): I am left handed, so this is why I have it on my right wrist. I’ve read a number of articles indicating to wear it on your non-dominant wrist, so I think I’m ok here :joy:

Unless I’m in a serious etiquette situation, I suppose I’m ok. Being a physicist, where those types of folks don’t seem to notice you probably shouldn’t wear sneakers with a suit, I might be in the clear… (PS: a professor in grad school wore baseball cleats to class once. Baseball cleats.)

Listen, as long as you’re not that guy with no base layer under his dress shirt, we’re cool.


#131

haha, that’s no problem :joy: perhaps it’s obvious with the watch that I do my best to present myself in a decent manner, so I try to pay attention to these kinds of things.


#132

I wish I could say the same thing…


#133

Like really really.


#134

Usually cleats are used in football, spikes are worn in baseball. Or am I wrong @thebalvenie ?


#135

I named her Doylestown Girl.

(Just kidding.)


#136

Yeah just messing :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:


#137

This is my “Obsession” on vinyl.


#138

I’m obsessed with this:


#139

@DougoBlue I just bought my first authentic 1972 Kenner Blythe. So excited!

I’ve also been sewing for my latest Takara Blythe:

Okay, so how do you dress a doll from 1972 who is named “Laurel Canyon?” Obviously in a kaftan. I looked around and could not find a pattern, so I made one up. The red one is my rough mock up, and the purple one is the first official outfit I made for Laurel…. She should get mailed out tomorrow!
