A surreal moment. I’ve looked at this honors plaque in recognition of the faculty who ran Honors at WCC since I was an Honors Student, and now to actually be included on it… still processing this one.

Today’s archive pull: suede saddle shoes and trousers not worn since 2014 when last I fit into them. Anyone know how to clean untreated suede?

Pulled these shoes out of the archives. Pulled the pants off the hanger I placed them on back in 2017 because they never fit me. Sometimes you have to play the long game.

Japan Post has ceased all mail delivery to the US for packages valued over $100. To get around this, a Japanese denim company tells me they'll ship components to US customers one-by-one — fabric, buttons, rivets, a sewing needle, and thread. You then assemble the jeans at home like IKEA furniture.
