Change...

I was within an few inches of a free haircut from volunteering my hair to locks of love, but was not ready for quite that short.

Over half my hair is gone. A weird feeling when you go from 4 inches to your ass to an inch below your shoulder. I keep trying to pull it over my shoulder as I always do, and there is nothing there. Still cannot decide if this is good or bad. No choice from here, but cannot decide the implications. No dye job as originally thought. maybe added later.

Tonight....

....was amazing. There are really no words for the voice Jimmy Gnecco has that truly can describe. I can barely hear anything and the right side of my head hurts extremely from the force of the speaker I stood next to towards the end of the concert. But I saw and heard the whole concert, and am beyond amazed at the result. I never knew you could make a song another 250+ measures long and at the end still deliver. Adrian and I had a discussion on the way home that they should have played "Fallen Souls", but as I pointed out, they are promoting a new album and we should be please with whatever old songs are played.

Now, I know the video cannot equal, but damn. Shitty quality and fro a few years ago, but really. Jeff Buckley had nothing on this guy, and I WILL fight anyone who is in disagreement.

Time to Move

Goodbye from the world's biggest polluter

Seriously? This is what we get from our 'leader'? This is what the nation voted for the second time and kinda voted for the first? While he's at it, why doesn't he go ahead and get us into war with Iran before he leaves the office? Even with the snowy winters I hate, Canada is looking like a good place to move as it has to be better than this.

Question..

Does anyone have a green version of a bleach pen?? I have a lot of clothing that needs to use one, but I feel bad about the chemical composition of bleach and would prefer an organic/eco-friendly version......

I <3 Jimmy Gnecco!

Good goddamn am I excited to see Ours tomorrow night. Been 3 or 4 years since Precious came out, and I managed to be out of town or working the last 2 times they were here. Not since Queen have I found a voice I love to hear as much as Jimmy's. Love their live shows.

Comet Between Fireworks and Lightning

I think I would be busy watching the storm more than the fireworks....

So Why Am I So Poor?

If you'd like to build a nest egg with your paycheck, it may be time to give up New York and head for Plano, Texas.


It's not often you think about the suburb you live in as being somewhere that evens ranks in the country for anything. Especially once you've lived here long enough (3 years is more than enough) you start to think this is just the expected. Sure I've always complained about the soccer mom's driving their Lexus SUV's to the hoity toity Walmart (that is no better than the Target directly across the street...go three blocks down to Whole Foods for better shopping) and the eight hundred country clubs across from each other. I technically live in the one block of Dallas that really should be Plano yet I keep thinking I am still in Plano due to the exact same environment and my stupidity to move 5 minutes away from my old place. On one side of my apartment there is a Ferrari dealership, across the street is a Hummer and SAAB, across the tollway from me is a Porsche and an Audi. You get to think of this as pretentious land, not somewhere to save money.

But then, I drive a Scion, never finished out that Bachelors in Humanities and like to drink. No wonder I'm poor. Amazing I can even afford an apartment here. Somehow, though, I still ended up in the corporate whoredom that surrounds this place. Hrm.

Thoughts...

1. Sailor Jerry is disgusting. Nothing helps this taste.
2. My balcony sits the best direction ever. Not only did I have the perfect view of Plano's fireworks at Legacy, I could see Frisco's as well. Awesome to see 2 shows at one time. Can only imagine the view outside of Half Shells.
3. Strawberry daquiris are to the awesome.
4. Vantage Point is a great movie. No, really. Was very impressed. Like Timecode, but on thriller status.
5. Taba needs to move to this complex.
6. Something smells really nasty in my fridge. Need to fix that.
7. Two shows this next week or so. Very excited. Ours for the first time for me in about 4 years (Adrian got to see them within the last year) on Saturday and Tilly and the Wall with Hil on Wednesday night.
8. My family needs to slow things down and let go when I do not call them back. Really, I am lazy, please just forgive it. Sure, it might take me a few weeks, but really, better follow-through than I give to my friends for calling.
9. I hate the idea, but damn do I need a massage. My right shoulder is killing me.
10. Sudoku does destroy your brain. You become more analytical and stabby to people who do not understand basic thought.
