So... I bought a sword.
It's not a real weapon, of course, as I can't afford those and I certainly don't need one, but it looks cool and it's freaking huge.
This is pretty much it, except it's got a black sheath:
Got it at Millennium in Metrotown, between seeing
Pineapple Express and
Mirrors. Jay carted my claymore around for me, and once we got back to his place, had a bit of fun swinging it around in the back yard. I asked him if he wanted to be the next Star Wars Kid, but he said no. *sigh* Very sad.
In other news, I've submitted my resume for consideration at The Banking Place. Should be interesting to see how this shakes out, as Jay's been happy there and has been urging me to do this for at least a month. The job posting just went up the other day, so we got right on it.
