Hello Gentlemen!

I'm finally back from the abyss of my recording studio (I'm working on new material for my new album I hope to release this year).

Tomorrow I head for Vegas for more poker (I can't get enough) and some Ricky Martin shakin his "bon bon" (I can't get enough--of any bon bon shaking really). I'm crossing my fingers that my new toy from Mike--the Carrera makes it in time for my trip. I really want to wear it this weekend--especially at the poker tables. I even packed the right shoes to match the strap:)

Chuck you asked me about "why Abercrombie/Heuer etc." Well, the truth is, as I patiently rumaged through the antigue markets etc. for over two years, I was looking mainly for a large stainless steel chronograph. It didn't have to be a Heuer. But when I saw the Heuer I freaked out because it was exactly what I had always imagined the watch I hoped to find someday to look and feel like. I had previously owned several Tag Heuers (Don't cringe you guys!) from my highschool and college days--you know the plastic sports ones. I guess I've always had a thing for Heuer designs. I still have a Tag 18k plated "Sports Elegance" watch that I purchsed in 1992--when I started making money from my first year of touring--it was my first "big" purchase ( I think I paid around $1,100 though they normally ran $1,595 ish). Anyway, my pride and joy is of course my Abercrombie. I knew I had found something special. I'll attach a photo of it (if I can figure out how to do this. If you don't see it purhaps Jeff or Mike can do it for me? You both have an image of my watch--Thank you!!!. By the way, thank you for your photos of you Abercrombie Seafarer and the Omega--both very nice.

Ok, I've talked enough--don't want to bore you guys! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Have a lot of fun. Wish me luck at the poker tables....

Regards,
Patty
