Curse the fish that ate
more than
what filled'em
Now I have to tell
my little cousin
"I killed'em"

I knew it, the moment my uncle charged me with the care of his little animal menagerie, I sensed that the fish was gonna be trouble.

He stared at me through the plastic walls of his little tank.....taunting me in between bubbles....."I make you nervous don't I?...you're unnerved by my silky fins and gills, and big'ol eyes.....you're questioning your abilities as an animal caretaker....you're questioning yourself......you can't do it, you don't know how, I don't bark, I don't meow or scratch on the door.....There's no telling how I'm feeling, how close I am to the edge.....don't slip up, any 'accident' is on your hands... "

He had it all planned out, and yet there was no fear in his little fishy eyes, just contempt.
And now the little bugger is dead, and I have to explain to my family why their beloved goldfish gorged himself to death the moment they left town.......suicide isn't pretty folks....

My Sis and her beau Benny.....
They took such good care of me!!





Siren Music Festival......soooo crowded, sooo hot.......but worth it.



TV On THe Radio,.....I was really looking forward to their set but to tell you the truth, they were kind of disappointing.



THe gentleman in the greeen button-down is from Blonde Redhead, I spotted him checking out TV On The Radio, so I snapped a picture.....
I'm the person that celebrities (or semi-celebrities, hate)


Mabye the only reason that TV On The Radio disappointed was because I had just come from The Thermals show.......which left me thouroughly rocked
!!!

Yep, that's me, the nerd who has her picture taken with members of the band.......I couldn't help myself, stopped to chat,.....camera in hand.....good-looking sweaty fella......
I'm weak...

The concert was held at Coney Island, I don't think I've ever seen as many pasty hipsters so near the beach........they seemed kind of lost.
Poor boy struggled so hard to role up his tight little jeans......


Way too much fresh air.....


Death Cab played a fantastic set, unfortunately, this was as close as I could get to the stage. The Till'T'Whirl to my left made it a bit hard to hear......

Heading to NYC this weekend.
Gonna spend some quality time con mi hermana......
And see some great bands (Siren music festival.....yayyyyyyyyy!!!)

Hopefully I'll be able to catch Deathcab's set, and THe Thermals (Who, despite the tightly packed crowds will still squeeze some booty-shakin' out of me)
....and Mission of Burma, and.....I'll stop listing now....

I love my sister!!!

Pictures to be posted upon my return...

Gotta love the artistic cropping......courtesy of several gin and tonics...



It's cool to wash down your breakfast with an "Irish" slushie right?

Peeps at the Pink.
