Last night! Man! I went to see Fleetwood Mac at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, and ended up SORT OF TOTALLY HOOKED UP aka in the front row for the last part of the show. Which was awesome, because Stevie Nicks is one of my favorite women (of famous sort). I never expected to be, like, ten feet from her. And also, because they still sound pretty great. Here are a few pictures:









Here's a bonus something awesome. I totally wanted to do a similar dance during "Stand Back", but I didn't have enough room:

I'm going to refrain from any further Stevie Nicks picspam, as I am like five seconds from oil painting wolves onto tambourines. Also, there is a Golden Girls marathon on, which I need to get back to. It is imperative. For life.

I want to trade my car in for a bicycle. I want to trade my city in for a city. I bought a ticket to go to Barcelona for a week in July. It's all the vacation time I could possibly take. My life is ruled by the almightly twelve hour work day. I'm trying to make up for it with chambray skirts and one-person cholera epidemics, with too much music and not enough clarity. I just wanna say something that's true.

Here's something you can actually purchase, with money, at urban outfitters:



Here are some other things that were on my desktop and are now uploaded to photobucket, which is not a real bucket:








someday I will actually attain my 100% realistic goal of being kristin scott thomas-in-the-english patient. until then i'll be here, dying in a cave.

EPIC CONVERSATIONS, PART 3: OREGON TRAIL EDITION

"its the oregon trail wagon on fire"

"sweeeeeet
that game rocked my socks. i loved hunting. that shit was hard. it made me feel like i was n the trail and delirious from hunger."

"did you play the version where you had to type out POW to hunt"

"i must have, yeah"

"BANG POW
SHOOT
GRENADE LAUNCH"

"it has a batman the tv show feel to it. BLAMMO! ZOWEE!
without the cool horn sound effects of course"

"TREBUCHET!
(the font)"

"GLISSANDO!
DENOUEMENT
DEUS EX MACHINA"

"typing DEUS EX MACHINA rapidly, and in-succession does nothing for your chances of survival on the Oregon Trail"

"i disagree.
the hand of god sweeps downward, saving your party from utter decimation by plucking you into the sky, allowing you to bypass the rocky mountain range"

"so it's kind of like that part in Super Mario Brothers where if you jump on the stairs with the turtle shell enough times you get infinite lives"

"thats exactly like it. and oddly enough this is how our forefathers made it.
lewis to clark: 'man no ones gonna believe us about the magic turtle'."

EPIC CONVERSATIONS, PART 2

"so you think just call it Moustache Robot then"

"either way"

"moustache robot is DEFINITELY a moustache that is a robot - no question"

"yeah, it might be funnier if it's not clear"

"well robot moustache to me is no question a robot's moustache
oh
no
wait
you're right
it could be A robot moustache"

"yeah, robot being the adjective describing the nature of the mustache"

I'm contemplating popping some prescription lenses in these new frames, and I trimmed up my hair. I posted this everywhere else so I may as well here, too.



Oh, I'm tired of looking at my own face. It's 7pm on a Friday night, and I'm leaning towards not going out due to a combination of gloomy weather, hating first friday, and really wanting to watch either Grey Gardens or Malice. Also, did I mention? I've given up on this city. Other things that my apartment has going for it is tasty coconut rum and tuna salad, and that I can't stop looking at Weardrobe. I wish their regulars included at least one girl who is over a sized 2. (I'd like to be inspired by someone who is a size 8, therefore knowing the combo would work on my size 8 i-like-sandwiches frame.)

And I'm trying to find a cheap flight to London or Paris. And I'm trying to learn some conversational French. The former proving more difficult.

And. AND. I might cut out a new dress pattern. Dare I attempt to wrangle thin jersey fabric? DO I DARE? All on a Friday night, my friend. All on a Friday night.


hey, remember what it was like before nicole kidman dyed her hair into white oblivion?
