In a flash of "brilliance" tonight I thought I figured out what I wanted, "thing" wise. If I'm gonna drop major coin, might as well make it something substantial. Something that will last and have value.
When Killer left for Korea I gave him my Bulova watch that I'd bought myself as a graduation gift for college. About $500 at the time.
Tonight I rolled to Fashion Valley with $5,000 in my pocket to buy a Rolex stainless steel Submariner. They are $7,000. I had another grand hidden at home but still..... I was dashed. Here I was thinking I was going to get something grand. A legacy piece my heirs could inherit. Something classic, with lasting substance beyond any motorcycle I want.
And I was $1,000 short. (plus tax)
Dang.
