I have a lot of stuff. Not as much as some, but it's a lot of stuff in the small space where I live. I enjoy my stuff, because I try to surround myself only with stuff I really need or really enjoy. And I don't get anything really expensive that can't be replaced if the Giant Puppy knocks it off the table wagging his massive Tail of Doom.

I like my stuff. But it's only stuff. It's not the be-all and end-all of the world.

And Chaz, you're right... if I want a disposable watch to take on vacation, I'll go to Wal-Mart. If I want my good watches taken care of, I go to a specialist. And thankfully, there's still a place for specialists. :-)
