Sorry, Sam. I don't do deets on retrospective posts. But, I will tell you it's Monday again. I got to pick up another french cuff shirt and a charcoal overcoat from the tailor this weekend. I don't know if I've mentioned it in my journal, but my arms seem to be 1 1/2" short for my girth somehow. Everything I try on seems to be a bit too long. This of course adds to the expense for each item, but I think I'm set and stylish for a while. I also picked up a couple of pairs of shoes for work this weekend. For the most part, I've been wearing the same pair for the last 4-5 years. I got some of those fancy boots with the zipper down the side that look like you're wearing dress shoes. I think this all gets me pretty close to being allowed to have a walking stick. Other than that I was bummed Sunday. I missed the opportunity in the morning to enjoy a cigar when the sun was even though it was chilly. The rains and the winds moved it and it was just nasty the rest of the day.
