    One Saturday morning I was laying in bed thinking about Swatches. They were super cool in 8th grade, but mom wouldn’t buy me one. Didn’t get my first until I graduated high school, the B&W French text version. :) (I have to admit, $30 in 1984 money was quite a bit for a plastic watch.)

    Then it hit me. I’m an adult. I’m making good money. I can buy a Swatch! Got on eBay and scored an 80’s model that morning. Now I have 3.
