Animated Mike Tyson, really? But the one review I read was positive so who knows.

lifestyle, random

my passion for paper

The search for the perfect notebook is like the search for the perfect black shoe, there’s always something new to look at and you really need more than one.

Not long ago we heard that San Francisco favorite Flax is moving from its current location. Now it is supposedly relocating but its current spot walking distance from my apartment and so it is often by default my office supply spot. And although it costs a ‘bit’ more there is something so delighting about finding a notebook that’s just a little something special. Following are a few that I’ve gravitated to. To check them all out view my board at pinterest.

Browsing can always happen at Flax, Maido, or Patrick & Co. Where do you get the best office supplies and what’s your weakness?

Not actually enthusiastic about Flash or Cristela, but they’re new. And I don’t actually get Kingdom (MMA fighter anyone) or Affair both of which are supposed to be good. And AHS this season is Freak Show and though I haven’t stuck with any of these I’m intrigued by each season’s new world. I guess it’s Walking Dead for me, I can only assume they don’t all get killed in the first episode.
