It's Official - I'm Old

1. I get a lot of things. I have a pretty open mind when it comes to fash and am rarely openly critical when it comes to others choosings of how they would like to represent themselves sartorially. These I don't get.
2. Trying to figure out if I hate them or just strongly disagree with the idea of them. Like with pantslessness. Or the musical careers of any of the females from the cast of GossipGirl.
3. If I EVER try and pull this off, you are officially allowed to punch me directly in the face area. Real talk.

It's Official - I'm Not Gonna Make It

Legit Sick.

Considering interests in a rather small handful of blogs covering a wide variety of topics, I'm very impressed with the depth and of breadth of info, resources, interconnectedness and the like of this one. Probably doesn't hurt that they produce nearly EVERYTHING themselves. Just finished listening to this. I wish more online experiences were this satisfying. Well played Mars Hill Church. Well played indeed.

Ummm... Yes.

From this one video alone I am completely convinced and will be purchasing your entire album shortly. Thank you The xx. Thank you very much.

Is It 2011 Yet?

Not trying to hate or anything, but I am oh so totally not opposed to skipping out on the next four months. I'm just saying.

"Hey, I'm gonna run this red light...

... but I'll stop twice at the next one." -Rick Langer

Yes...

... Todd Ingram, this is exactly what the manifestation of my own telekinetic abilities looks like too. Except of course that my super suit is black with white accents and yellow piping. Or Red piping. Kinda depends on the day. And I've also got that whole concentric circles on the chest thing going on- a la Havoc of X-Men but more wearable, you know? YOU'RE WELCOME.

"...*Clap Clap* Hurts so good."

Almost pooed myself. Again.

There I go again, talking about poo...

Ra Ra Riot

No idea what y'all are selling, but based on this pic alone I'm definitely buying.

Sometimes...

... Austin just says stuff.

Reblogged from Heather and Jessica: Smithly Played, Smith Family: More Smithyness

Step Up 3D Midnight Showing Y'all!

Poo'd my pants. Like 3 times yo. You hear that? Poo. Everywhere. But in a good way.

The Life and Times of a Phnx in Lisboa

Actually looks like this. Glad to be here. Hurts a little bit though. Flashback-tastic today. Like the olden timey days in Firenze.

Nathan Dapper

At Furdui-Dupper Wedding. Classy.

Pantslessness Happens

Every day.

"It's really wrong to gossip...

...unless its true. Or just way too good not to tell everyone you see whether you know them or not."
-Lorelai Gilmore

Flipshare...

sucks.

Imogen Heap

At The Greek with Ben Christophers, Geese and Six Wave. Summer 2010.

J'adore Dior

Why didn't I know Sophia did this? Or that it premiered during fairer times of GossipGirl back in aught eight? Or that Mr. Mars is the father of her babies? Or that Elle (who kill't it in PiW) is in Somewhere? Or that Phoenix is doing the soundtrack? I am a bad cinephile indeed. Gonna go watch Marie Antoinette in the hopes our Lady Sophie will forgive me...

Everybody Ready Going Crazy Yeah We're Out

Summer, summer, summer, summer, summer, summer, summer, summer...

Things I Did Not See Coming

C-Bear: So, I think I have the Beiber Fever...
Phnx:AAAAAAHHHHOOO MY FREAKING GOB GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT OF MY CAR!

And scene.

Just For The Taste Of It

Sometimesthe teacher I work with hasn't taken a break all day and then this bottle apears out of nowhere next to her desk. I'm just saying.

Family Force 5

At SWC. Memorial Day Weekend 2010.

So...

I'ma need to join the cast of Modern Family. Stat. Like uber stat. Like 867-530STAT. Maybe I can play adopted Asian baby during season 2. I can pull off Asian, right? Maybe Blasian. That's it.

Songs that should not be on the radio in Marie Callender's

Diplomat's Son. REALLY wanna go up to some of the geriatric patrons here and ask them their thoughts.

Must Be Tuesday

Convos that never happed but still cause me to want to punch certain people directly in the face area so I listen to D. Merriweather x 70

OFFENSIVE. If I wake up bitter and caustic for reasons I can't remember until several hours later one more time, I'm moving to Canada. Or Yucaipa. Either really. Whichever place will cause my dreams to die the fastest will do just fine.

"An Emotion Picture for the Mind"

Finally.

Spice Girls Meet Vampire Weekend

On the radio back-2-back in the AT&T store. Like a pop music paradise up in here.

10th Ave. North

At Trinity Church. May 2010.

Who 'dis be?

I think I'm in love. I was expecting BK or Alica Keys to pop out, but this was the most pleasant of surprises. Her voice is BOMBTASTIC. And her hair is like legit sick. Like a black Rainbow Bright. Add some pants and we'll talk.

"Trust your instincts." - Ashley Fuller Olsen

Things that are EXPLOSIVE:

1. Bombs, obvi.
2. Vomit (more projectile than explosive, but whatevs).
3. Diarrhea.

So that class I have tonight? I'm not gonna be able to make it...

Happy B-day Ben (D.)

Seeing people with iPads...

...feels suprisingly similar to seeing Jr. High students dress like pop stars. Just doesn't feel right. Think I'm gonna vom- oh wait. Just did.

Fefe's new ablum...

... needs to come out already.

Killin' it with a Skillet - The Life and Times of a Phoenix Named Jones

1. New apartment.
2. Free big screen TV.
3. Fixed equipment I once thought unsalvageable.
4. "A" on first test of the quarter.
5. Passing score on the CBEST.
6. Don't feel quite so much like vomiting every time I think of that one thing I did that one time.
7. Finalizing details about the other country.
8. Learning to live significantly below my means.
9. Attempting to and succeeding at Jesusing it up more consistently than usual.
10. Falling. Hard.

The first ill conceived idea in hours and miles...

... and I don't feel like I'm gonna make it.

"It's really hard to figure out how to be a man. Practically every man I know is still working on it." - Graham Chase

He's Angela's dad from My So-Called Life. He's no Atticus, but I like him. I like to think Atticus would as well.

And We're Back

At the Movie Theater

Pretty sure I've seen that Justin Bieber fellow about 7 times in the last 5 minutes. The long bangs under a hoodie with sagging skinny jeans and some "fresh kicks," rite? I sure hope it was the original him. If not, I'm pretty sure he is multiplying and traveling in packs.

Things I REALLY Don't Like That I Apparently Should But Hey Denny's Sells Cheese Fries For Like $2 Now So WHAT-EVA-I-GUESS I'm Over It: MUPPETS

These things scare the poo out of me. Always have. If I saw an actual human, let alone one of these demonized and big-eyed things, walking the way they do toward me down a hall in the middle of the night I would (in no particular order): 1. Go bat-crap crazy 2. Jump out the nearest window 3. Poo myself. Just in case you were wondering.

Fiiinnnnaaaaaallllllllyyyyyyyyyy

2.5 years after telling us she is gonna release 4 EPs about 6 months apart, Janelle Monae is finally about to release new music. Bless my stars y'all. I thought we were about to have another Fefe Dobson/Sunday Love sytcheeashun on our hands. I just don't think the new-music half of my heart would be up for those kind of shenanigans right now.

"No One In Class Got Swagger This Cool"- Tavi Gevinson

In addition to having better taste than most humans (myself included), I can only wish I was as well spoken, well-read, unashamed of the things I loved, and confident at her age. Which is thirteen btw. Yes, I too could not tell if she was 6 or 60. Geriatric Chic at it's finest.

Director Chris Columbus...

Why? Because he's a life ruiner. He ruins people's lives.
