The Sisters Of Mercy and other things

[e_juliana]

So - went to see Sisters at the Warfield last night. They were good, but the sound mix was hella muddy, even after I moved out of the pit, and the copious smoke started bothering me after a while. (Gods, I feel old typing that. Stupid bronchitis.) However, we got in for free and got semi-VIP treatment, so I'm not complaining a bit. I was just happy to see them.

The Warfield is possibly one of the most beautiful theaters I've seen. Wow.

I was too lazy to go all-out, so I went for my Standard Gothy Concert Ensemble - all black velvet - tank, long skirt, swoopy overdress, with black boots and the usual makeup. There was some beautiful corsets wandering around last night.

Diablo Cody rocks my world. If you haven't heard of her, check out her blog and then read her book.

I am in lurve with the shirt I'm wearing today. The cut is a pretty standard women's button-down, but the cuffs and the fabric make it. It's a black stretchy fabric with satiny pinstriping, and the cuffs are long enough to be French cuffs, but with only one buttonhole. I know they're meant to be folded backl, but I'm wearing them down which makes me feel like Rusty Ryan, who would totally be my Seekrit Fictional Boyfriend if he weren't so in love with Danny already. (Apropos of Teh Pretty - I think this picture should go up on a certain site, iff'n the admin likes. Such nice hands he has.)

Right. Back to clothing. (Rusty is such a clotheshorse. See! He's perfect!) The shirt is from H&M. Their selection is pretty hit-or-miss when it comes to things that flatter me, but when they hit, they hit. I have my new favorite blazer from them, too.

I definitely need this Avenging Unicorn Play Set.

I think tonight will be mellow. I'll probably try to run, and then maybe walk up to Safeway & Trader Joe's. I need to break down and get one of those wheely-cart dealies that the old ladies in Chinatown are always dragging about. A mile is fairly long to be carrying groceries & 20 pounds of cat litter & 10 pounds of cat food all by myself. Oh, and I have Hustle & Flow from Netflix. Awesome.

Have you been to the Fillmore yet? Or the Great American Music Hall? You'll like.

I saw GbV at The Great American Music Hall several years back - very nice venue.

Oh, and I may be in SF Apr 3-5. Know of any cool stuff going on in the evenings? Will be in business conference during the days (groan). (This is gloomcookie from b.org, by the way.)

Hey GC! I saw Guided by Voices at Bimbo's which is another very cool venue. (To continue a recent b.org theme it's where they shoot the Chris Isaak show.)

I'll check the listings for you. You can probably take a peek yourself at www.sfbg.com and www.sfweekly.com.

SWEET!

(Um, you wanna hang out? I'll check the listings, too...)

Not yet! But I will, oh yes I will....

Get the cart; I see people of all ages hauling stuff up and down the sidewalk in them. In my Sekrit Heart of Hearts I want a Radio Flyer with the wooden side panels for just that purpose, but it wouldn't haul as much as the carts. Darn it.

See, the wagon would be too noisy empty for me to be happy about it.

I want a hovercraft. Why can't I have one?

Awwwww Rusty

You definitely need the AUPS. That is the coolest playset ever.

And get the cart.

I got two words: Cart Rides.

I got two more words: Bent Metal.

Cutie.

Did you watch Hustle & Flow? I loved it.
