Don't say I ain't never done nuthin' fer ya

Or: It's all Juanita's fault.

You see, she came in wearing a groovy, big, red, watch. Which was the impetus for the idea that everyone gets something red.

So I went to Canal Street and bought a couple watches. They were both $20 but I "talked them down" to $18 and $12 respectively. I actually said "Can't you give me a better price?" about one of the watches and the guy actually said "For you, $18." The other watch I pointed out that it was all scratched up, so he came down $8 off the asking price. Which doesn't mean I didn't get rocked for them. But I did get them. And, I believe, it means I'm at the end of the prop-buying part of my day.

Here's the Chinese symbol for "heart". This is one of the very first words one learns in Chinese, because it's relatively simple and ends up being inside other symbols for other things.

I say we shoot the closeups we need of these watches on day one of shooting because who knows how long these watches will keep working. I have zero idea about how to set either one of them.
