A brief itinerary of recent Internet purchases

By arbourman

Thank Dog for the Internet. How did anyone ever meaningfully wile away the small hours at work without it?

It started on a Tuesday, I had just returned from holiday and was waiting for some projects to come my way. Then whoops-click-boom and some new socks were heading my way too.

That Friday, on the way to the rock’n'roll bar La Feline in Menilmontant, I came across a large advertisement in the metro for an Alvin Ailey show that is now doing some dates at Chatelet Theatre.

So my next Internet purchase will be some French language lessons.

And then, something even more useful

Is this as good as Internet shopping gets? What is your proudest Internet purchase?
