The boy's a homewares shopper

It's a difficult image to reconcile with his other image as a geek-perv (one who is compelled to browse computer games 'n' gear shops), but - lately, we've been spending weekend time looking for homewares. Not just the he-man stuff like kitset furniture i.e. stuff which presents an oppurtunity to use power tools; also items like wardrobe organisers and kitchen implements. For example, he spent twenty bucks on a vegetable peeler. On a peeler. As you'd expect for such a price, the handle feels nice in your grip and looks much more impressive than I ones I used to buy (two for two dollars at the Two Dollar Shop).

Not just an ex-biker and sportscar driver, nor just a geek with personality; we've been together for over three years now and the boy still surprises me with new and unexpected sides to his personality. Next I'll probably find out he once turned down a scholarship with the Royal Ballet or something...
