It was a blast, simply put. In an odd way I just get all warm & fuzzy when I get to visit. It's a safe place that feels great to be around & in.

I wish (e:metalpeter) could feel the same way.

Honestly we all go through some stuff in this life. God knows I lost a good years going through some BS. It's hard to get to the point where you can cut loose & accept the cards you have been dealt & move on. There is so much that I wish I could/still do, but I just live one day at a time. Sometimes to my detriment as some people just lose their stuff at me when they see my post on fb, but It's my life not theirs.

Anyways here are a few pics from a great night. This isn't as good of a job as the Peterazzi could do, but just to fill the void.

It's ironic that my old friend from college who is from New York City is getting married at a place that could stand in for Brooklyn.







Congratulations!!!

So with this Something September thing that is going around with some people, I've decided to pull back in my own way. It concerns my overuse of Facebook. I think last week when I had the thought that that app/community/site had consumed my subconscious mind is when I decided to pull back. I just had to ask the question am I doing things for me or the likes that they generate?

Now we're all different & being a guy like myself I got no where near the love on my own compared to when I had tagged my "concert girlfriend" in the posts. But still I had to ask "Who & What am I doing these things for & Why am I Oversharing?"

So I just decided to like & comment as I've realized that most of the time on my phone is on there. One modification I've purposely done is to use the Paper app. This is due to the fact that I get most of my fluff news from there & it works better than the newsfeed. Plus it also cuts down on the pics of people's first day of school pics & other nonsense.

It's odd how when I'm down at Canalside I get this odd feeling like I'm in Toronto on another timeline. It's weird because I think for a moment I'm at the foot of Yonge St. I guess some of the same elements are there, The NHL Hockey arena, the "Financial District" near by & of course the most precious to my heart, Old Industrial stuff & a Great Lake of course.

I guess a part of me wishes I could buy a condo right there. Since I missed out on the boom in Toronto. Then again Buffalo doesn't have really much in terms of new construction as most of the new lofts downtown are all rentals. With that in mind I'm not interested in throwing money away. But in all actuality I So wish one of the rooms in the Harbor Center Marriott was a condo that I could buy.

So I'm trying to get out of the house & overcome a few fears that I've had over the last 5 years now.

I'm actually out & about today while posting on my phablet iPhone 6 plus. Yeah Not to bring up the old drama about an app but who needs one when you have a big screen & processing power? Although I have to admit I have been posting using the LiveJournal app! Yeah I still check that place just due to a few old friends, I still can't believe it's mostly Russian, who knew?

Anyway with friends dying & life getting crazy collectively I guess my perspective has changed about life. Yes I've had a ton of loss family wise bit sometimes you can't see the forest through the trees when you're in the middle of it. The only way to describe my perspective on life these days is like when jigsaw gave a speech on appreciating your life in a saw movie after someone won a game & survived. In some ways I feel like that after my friend died in Oct.

So maybe my New Year's resolution will be to use this site when I'm out and about in the city? Also have to figure out a way how to upload pictures for work around with flash on an Apple product.
