Now that I’ve moved, my apartment is filled with boxes – and I don’t have a reason to unpack until the kitchen is installed and other furniture delivered – a few weeks into the future. I’ve done some basic cleaning of my old apartment – removing the shocking amount of dust that had accumulated behind […] I bought the above bracelet in 2013 while visiting New Mexico – the same trip when I bought Whatchamacallit 18: the Navajo Plant Dye Chart and Whatchamacallit 92: Navajo Turquoise Bracelet. This was bought at a place where you really can be in four places at once: Four Corners Monument. Surely I didn’t pay […] I’ve visited New Zealand twice. Once. Both visits were part of my 2015 around the world adventure – before and after Samoa and American Samoa. It depends how you count “visit” – the first was 7 hours, the second was 25.5 hours. I could look it up, but I am too lazy to do […] In July I wrote about Berliner Luft, the soap bubbles. Now it is about Berliner Luft, a peppermint liquor that is best not drunken. However, 2.5 years ago I bought this bottle to celebrate the fact that I’d purchased some “Berliner Luft,” as in a few cubic meters of air high in the sky. […] I bought this thing in 2010, shortly after moving into my apartment in Schöneberg. Throughout the year, as postcards and greeting cards arrive, I fill it up – then in late November, I take everything down and start the process anew. For reasons that will become apparent, I’ve had to undertake this process a […] I’ve never worn this hat. This was a giveaway from the BVG – Berlin’s public transit agency – during Berlin’s Christopher Street Day (Berlin Pride) several years ago. Which year, I cannot recall. The hat folds up tightly and neatly into the yellow bag on the left, along side the whistle in front. I […] I bought this magnet while in Berlin on vacation from a stand at the Boxhagener Platz flea market on Sunday morning. The back of the magnet is signed, with a 2007 date mentioned. I cannot read the signature, but there is a clear marking: jan m. petersen OBJEKTE www.kunstkaufhaus-ost.de Much to my […] This book is not the first copy of this book that I’ve owned. The first copy of this book I got in either kindergarten or first grade – I would guess kindergarten, but logically it feels more like first grade. It was free, a gift from RIF – Reading Is Fundamental – a program […] I bought this hat from a shop in Laramie, Wyoming. I have no idea how long ago, how much, or which shop. The shop did have a small selection of goods made from buffalo wool, including coasters, which I keep in my living room. The hat was also there. Given the difficulties of obtaining […] This is an expensive hat: I bought it in the country that is home to Panama hats, Ecuador. If my geography is correct – and the store has continuity of ownership, I bought it at EBD Carmal Hats – Casa del Sombrero on my last morning in Quito, just before heading to Panama, where […] |
