umbrella

In Addition to my new pocket-watch, I have also aquired this umbrella

from, of all places, "Target"

Would you Believe?  I have looked far and wide, in thrift stores everywhere, nothing.  And then one day, I go to target, and there it is. Waiting for me.

It is a black umbrella with wood handle, and wood shaft. I would have preferred a Metalshaft, but hey, you take what you can get.

Pocket-Watch

I Have Recently acquired an awesome Pocket-Watch.  It works, so that's good, But it has a bit of mystery attached. Here is the back of the watch:

But here is the mysterious bit:

I popped the back off with my leatherman, and found these weird symbols. Now, I beseech you, the reader {Yes You} for information about these words.  Do you have an uncle that owns a watch shop? Buy alot of watches yourself? Just happen to know what these words mean?  For those of you that can't read the picture for one reason or another this is the tranliteration:
ADVANCE WATCH CO., LTD.
CHINA
AWCLTWY

What is it that I want you ask? Any Information Regarding the advance Watch Co., Ltd. {Point me to a website if you want, If it's relevant, it's not spam} And any guesses as to what AWCLTWY means.

Thanks!

The Caffiene has worn…off…zzz

Well, This is a new day. sorry about the lack of punctuation on my earlier posts, the combination of three shots of espresso, {As opposed to my usual…one.} And the limitations of typing on an iPhone seriously hindered my blogging ability! I wanted to say that the awesomeness that is FARMbloomington {Not just FARM} has a website!

http://www.farm-bloomington.com/index.html

After Brunch {Breakfast-Lunch} I left the crew to their own devices and wandered down the sidewalk, I found a really neat men's clothing shop {Suits and such} and they sold Bow ties! But they didn't know how to tie them, so I think I helped them figure out how to do it, but if you know how to tie a bow tie, and are in Bloomington Indiana some time, visit Andrew Davis Mens Wear‎ {Google Maps Link}  and help them further.  Or just make sure about their Bow tying skills {Skillz} I think that the Two guys who were working there at the time got the hang of it, but you never can be sure.  It took me ages to tie my Bow-Tie the first time!

Also, the next shop down the road was a kitchen store, and the guy working There drank Six Shots of espresso every morning! And I thought I was Wired.
