showing off the loot

yay! presents! and they’re all mine.

my marzipan fruit and violet pastilles
weird, delicious candy from europe: fruit-mimicking marzipan and violet-flavored candies.

my new shirt and stuffed platypus toy
a terrific shirt and a stuffed platypus for my growing collection of [unjeweled] platypuses acquired in thrift shops by my mom. current count: two (the other one).

a bunch of new books
you can see the kind of stuff i like to read. i’ve already read two and two halves of these books.

my new notebook and pen
fetishistic stationery? naturally! my moleskine notebook and space pen.

update 1/11/05 1:10: two more books have been added to the pile: the eudaemonic pie, by thomas a. bass, and the visual display of quantitative information, by edward tufte.
