This watch reminds me of the Kasimir, but it actually was released a year before Kasimir hit the market. This is the watch that a lot of the counterfeiters copied.

I got it in a group of four other Swatches and I just love it. I have a brand new white band coming for it so I can wear it without feeling guilty about ruining the original band.

I think I'm not that into the abbreviation of "cardigan" to "cardi". It never used to bother me before and now I just think, "It's 3 syllables!" I think it just sounds too cute - like "sammiches". It's irrational.

Speaking of things in the pathetic realm, today was my 2nd attempt at layering with this cardigan. Which isn't even layering but it still feels awkward and strange. You'd think I'd grown up in the rain forest and not temperate NJ.

I went in for four hours to work on the workshop presentation and material for Monday - and 2 people were in the office as well.

It is hard to dress up jeans and a cardigan.
