add to cart: the north face arctic down jacket (w00t!)

i scored me a super-mega-warm-and-comfy jacket on geartrade.com just now! it's mid-april and the little oregon scientific thingie says it's 63º in my little office area, but feels more like 43º. i can either turn up the heat, which in turn ups the gas bill, or i can suck it up and rock a monster coat --- a stylish one to boot! :)

5:01:59PM Merc: oh dood i just got a killer deal on a down jacket
5:02:00PM Merc: http://www.geartrade.com/item/189262
5:02:11PM Merc: its backcountry.com
5:02:22PM Merc: they couldnt put it on the site b/c it was missing tags
5:02:25PM Merc: which is fine
5:02:32PM Merc: im going to cut them off anyway
5:03:59PM Merc: omg yay way better than oslo jacket
5:04:04PM Merc: its a little more elegant
5:04:20PM Merc: less sleeping-bag-ish
5:04:27PM Merc: its fucking cold right now

i've been complaining for months how i'm cold as hell all the time so this ought to help me deal w/ the frigid weather a little better. albeit, only for a few weeks considering summer is right around the corner...

another delicious salad!

the tj's balsamic dressing was slightly too sweet. i'm thinking i'm digging litehouse's balsamic vinegarette more...
