Here today, gone tomorrow
Category: downtown

They started to take down the Delaware Court Building on Chippewa the other day. Its so fucking stupid that we are giving money to Uniland and Delaware North to take down a perfectly good building when we have so many empty lots downtown, especially to just shuffle the deck with a new glass box.

went past the building today and they have all this metal stuff in the ground and the building is down to about Bada Bings .....

Building a new building there makes no sense when the former HSBC they call it one senca one or something is basically empty .. it makes no sense to put in a huge building and give them tax credits for it........

This makes me very sad. I'm sure the new building will be swell and everything, but like you said, there are so many empty lots around. It is difficult to believe this was the best alternative.

I wonder how that area will change.

West Side Bazaar
Category: food

After strugglebussing it out of bed this afternoon (oops), (e:paul), (e:terry) and I decided to go to the West Side Bazaar. I've been wanting to go there since I heard about it when Paul and Terry went there. So much good food for cheap.

We ran into (e:Heidi) and (e:dianne) who were there for international women's day. terry and I split the Ethiopian vegetable platter. We also got samosas, baklava and a bubble tea with no bubbles. I wish they didn't use Styrofoam plates though.

Hack Rave at Love
Category: dann ng

Last night (e:paul) (e:terry) and I went with (e:yesthatcasey) and (e:flacidness) out to Love Nightclub in Rochester for a rave. It was ridiculously good hardcore and happy hardcore music by this guy named Velociraptor. The setup was decent and there was plenty of room to dance. We danced for over 3 hours and didn't get to bed until about 5.

I dressed up in Paul's old kikwear pants and TK wore Terry's. Paul got them thrifting at some point, the label said 91 on them. Weird to think about.

Party Gras
Category: going out

Last night (e:terry) and I went out for Mardi Gras on Allen with (e:heidi), (e:dianne), (e:xandra) and (e:czarkasm). Poor (e:paul) was sick and working late :(.
We went to Nietzche's at first. I entered the butt contest but (e:mike,58760), you would have been disappointed because it wasn't really even a contest. Whatever, any excuse to moon a bunch of people. Terry says I might have shown a little too much of the goods.

I ran across the street for a bit to Brick Bar, where I met up with Lindsay, Catherine, Andrew and some other guy. I also saw Lisa there for her 21st birthday, she was absolutely cray.
I went back and finished the night at DBGB's with everyone again. We danced for a bit and headed home around 1:30.
My ride in the next day was rough for sure.

leicht verschwommen wie die Nacht
