Fashion Mistake

So I realized today after it was too late that I projected the wrong image by the clothes I put on this morning. Basically I wore a plain white T-Shirt since it was clean & topped it off with a Black Chicago White Sox Hat. Needless to say for some odd reason I felt out of place out in the Burbs in the morning and when I was walking and driving around the city later on in the afternoon I felt even more out of place. Basically I my clothes on many teenage boys on random street corners. The topping was when a group of African-American men in a Cadillac SUV were laughing at me was I crossed in front on them at a stoplight. Usually it would happen organically, but today I knew exactly what they were focused on.

tinypliny writes at 12:15:03 08/21/10 - Comment #57932: Hmm... I wish I had more fashion in my life. I just think it's too tiresome sometimes to worry about it - not to mention the uncomfortable and damaging footwear that comes with the state of fashion.

I have been trying to walk in a paltry 2" heel for some days now and I feel as if the air 2" above is toxically dizzying, that I am going to fall on my nose, that my toes are being murdered in cold blood with a hot axe, that my lower back is complaining to my brain and the spinal cord is conveying the coup messages, that I am committing feet homicide, that I am selling out - all at ones. I have returned no less than 3 shoes through this ordeal. The thing is, I am absolutely convinced that most women are completely unaware of what they are doing to their feet when they wear these monstrosities. The big irony is that the realization is making it even more difficult for me to adjust to the heels.

Aaaargh I hate fashion conventions that say that sneakers are not equivalent to "dressing up". What I really want to do is to defend in bare feet - but then I will have to go and get a pedicure, I suppose.

I'm sure if you would have a just carried a skate board you would have fit right in, HA kidding. Yesterday in the falls I saw two cops and a bunch of skateboarders. I thought I wonder if they got that way for being young and doing something, I'm guessing for skating and not doing anything wrong. My point is you had a certain look not sure what that look is and how it compares to where you were, but if it is comfy then fine........

Old Emails

I was cleaning out my gmail account when I realized that years ago I received some interesting monumental text messages that I had forwarded myself to save. All I can say is good thing that i did, as there were some insightful things in there.

The best ones are the old pics from the Cont. All I can say is I realize now why people do porn, it's to immortalize their youth. Needless to say I am pretty happy that I took some pics from the old fetish nights ;-)

Yea, we have all seen and laughed at the people of Wal*Mart

But is Western New York really that much more sophisticaled than the South where most of the photos from the Wal Mart Blog came from?

Someone in B-Lo may own Facebook?

If this turns out true this would be crazy!

Anyway Zuckerberg is a total Douche, it would be cool to see Karma catch up with him. After all to him we're just the "Dumb Fucks" that give him Billions...

Concert Roadtrip Vlog

I was sorting out all of the vids that I never posted on iMovie/iPhoto and stitched this one together. This is from March when I went to see Silversun Pickups and Muse at the Palace of Auburn Hills. So this is an idea of what going to Michigan was like for me to see a concert last week. I decided to post it since it doesn't seem half bad for a vlog, although I had to cut it down to get under 10 minutes.

Smashing Pumpkins

I never saw Billy Corgan "back in the day," So when I had an opportunity to grab pre-sales for a week where I already had off I grabbed them. I'm totally glad that I did as it totally worked out even with having a pretty existential week and all. I was lucky enough to get a hotel through hotwire right across the street from the venue.

The building itself was a pretty interesting venue to say the least. My mind just races as to what it was previously, I just have to guess that it was a one or two plex movie theater at one point in time. Anyway the people in Grand Rapids are just really friendly and cool. This guy and his friends took me into their group and midway through the took me upstairs which was pretty sweet.

Anyway here is the setlist

which totally worked and rocked as his new band sounds pretty good.

Here are a few pics

From the Floor

Billy

Crowd Shot!

I want to be a professional Photog like this woman!

I did get to hang with the opener Kill Hannah before they walked next door to the stripclub.

Disintegration

For some reason this old Cure song has popped back into my head. I was just thinking about concerts and if the possibility arose where I could time travel to see a show from the recent past what tour would I see? I think for me it would be the Disintegration Tour in '89. Maybe it's because I caught the tour for Wish and felt as if I was missing something.

In other news my manager passed away at work which really just slapped me emotionally inside the only way a death of someone way too young can do to you. I'm just glad that I had this week booked off since for some F'd up reason I need to get my head straight due to the universe smacking me across the face to make my numb on the inside as it seems to frequently do.

I have to ask, "Why does it seem as if I have this dark cloud" stalking me once in a while? F**K! I want to know, Is it possible to make lemon aid out of this Freakin' Lemon?

Rochester

I don't know but I just love these promo films from the 60's. I could watch those Walt Disney ones where he talked about EPCOT & Space Mountain. At least I got my kick when I saw Ironman 2.

Death

It's just odd that after all that I wrote about we're having serious talks within my family about such and such just in case "if anything happened!" It's kind kind of odd as when I was younger I just felt that life was just too overwhelming and long. That was until now I'm really faced with my own mortality.

Fuck at this point I just hope that I can get to the point where my parents die before me. At that point it would be a moral victory or in my case "Happy Losses." As I'm just wondering on a very serious level, "How many years I get get out of this body..."
