NEWSFLASH: We are switching plans and D and I will be at the Green Mill show tomorrow night rather than tonight. I'm stupid exhausted and no fun to be around.
― Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Friday, 10 February 2012 22:26 (twelve years ago) link
Jordanian I am sorry, but we will totes be there tomorrow. I just need to recover from back to back classes, two mad shitty meetings, and falling on my face in the alley while simultaneously flinging a bag of dog poop into the air.
― Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Friday, 10 February 2012 22:27 (twelve years ago) link
It is no fun out there right now.
― tanuki, Friday, 10 February 2012 22:31 (twelve years ago) link
Like a Russian model out there: very pretty, no fun.

Mamada, I was in your neighborhood on Sunday evening. I went to Mayne Stage (??) on Morse and the gay bar known as The Glenwood and to Oasis.
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Friday, 10 February 2012 22:47 (twelve years ago) link
Wheeeee I hope you did not find it filthy or full of chicken feet.
Please note that D and I are definitely going to the Green Mill tonight, perhaps we will see you there!

Reminder: Tonight is the filthy fictions show. Come to the Whistler at 7:30. John, that includes you.

Also, Jordan, good to see you last night! We split toward the end of the third set. Liked all the MJ tunes.
― jaymc, Monday, 13 February 2012 00:38 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, thanks for coming! it was great to see everybody.

totes! i was glad to finally meet your gf too. i like her.
― Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Monday, 13 February 2012 15:16 (twelve years ago) link
also i did not win the contest, fyi. i didn't even get a prize for participating. i guess i have the pride and satisfaction of a job well done, and that's probably what matters. i'm not a competitive person anyway.

jesse posted a picture to the what's happening thread on 77 *without asking me* (but i don't mind. i secretly wanted someone to do that and i look alright :)
i guess maybe i should market myself as a bachelorette party clown and maybe i could embarrass some people for money.
(aside --> no joke, i met a young female clown on the train once on my way to work. she complimented my bag and then somehow we started talking about where we were going and she told me that she is a clown. so i guess it's a thing?)

Is he one of those "it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission" people? They make me IA.

it's ok because it's not uglyi would be complaining if it were ugly but i look alright.

That's a topgrading question. xpost

not to be all superficial but
I didn't think it was something that I needed to ask permission to do!
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Monday, 13 February 2012 16:02 (twelve years ago) link
jesse honestly? even after i said "please do not take pictures of me" out loud while we were standing by the bar? i'm not mad, but yes, in general i would prefer to be asked if a picture of me is being posted in a public place. i am a control freak! get used to it.

My twitter feed is making me feel broken because I don't like Adele.
― carl agatha, Monday, 13 February 2012 16:59 (twelve years ago) link
haha. i have no feelings about her beyond thinking "rolling in the deep" is a good song, but she was kind of adorable last night.
― horseshoe, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:01 (twelve years ago) link
I just looked at some pictures of her and she looked super pretty. And I think she has a good voice. I'm just bored by all of her songs that I've heard.
― carl agatha, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:04 (twelve years ago) link
when she won the album of the year grammy she started crying and then laughed while she was doing her thank yous and said she had "a bit of snot" or had gotten a bit of snot on the grammy or something and i think everyone i was watching with was pretty charmed.
― horseshoe, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:06 (twelve years ago) link
i also very much admired her eye makeup and spent a lot of time thinking about how one would achieve that effect.
― horseshoe, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:08 (twelve years ago) link
i don't really get why people watch the grammys or really any award shows. the oscars kind of make sense because some people seem to care on some level who wins oscars but no one really cares who wins grammys or golden globes or whatever.
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 13 February 2012 17:08 (twelve years ago) link
the grammys are terrible and i have no idea why i watch them :/
― horseshoe, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:09 (twelve years ago) link
watching the oscars is one of my favorite things, though. i think you have to be obsessed with celebrities and an inveterate gossip.
or just know a lot of things about the oscars, like john

In my defense, I was encouraged/instructed by one of our friends to go to the front of the room and take lots of pictures, which overrode your previous protest, which I didn't realize was a directive.
xps
― garbage corn fan (Je55e), Monday, 13 February 2012 17:10 (twelve years ago) link
i think i get caught up in the idea of awards as being perceived as valuable or actually meaning something and forget that most people just watch the award shows because of the spectacle and entertainment value and don't really care that much about who actually wins.
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 13 February 2012 17:12 (twelve years ago) link
Aw, totally charming. I was looking at her eye makeup, too!
You know who else's eye makeup I am totally obsessed with? Lady Crawley (Elizabeth McGovern) on Downton Abbey. She's working some little black eyeliner wings.
It's seems as understandable why someone would care about who wins the Grammys as who wins an Oscar. Which is to say, to me "not understandable at all" because I p much only care about red carpet pics but one doesn't seem more understandable than the other.

i think with the grammys i end up getting a little enraged by the vision of popular music presented by the show and how off it seems? i think i am skeeved out by the music industry more than the movie industry (irrationally). maybe i just care about music more.

i haven't started watching downton abbey yet, Jenny. i get such mixed reviews but mostly i know i would become addicted and watch 5 episodes a night.
As soon as I got to work this morning, two older female co-workers barraged me with overwhelming praise for the Grammys. Apparently, it was the best award show ever. Except they seemed a little befuddled by nikki minaj.
― the glass of beer (askance johnson), Monday, 13 February 2012 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
nicki minaj was definitely the high point just in terms of wtf is going on right now
― horseshoe, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:20 (twelve years ago) link
Revised plans for my day off:
Sit on couch with cats and read. Roast cauliflower for lunch. Practice black eyeliner wings.
xp haha I'm befuddled by Nicki Minaj, tbh

this otm, it's all just a weird alternate music dimension where bon iver is the best new music of 2012 even though in our dimension his first album came out like four years ago
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 13 February 2012 17:22 (twelve years ago) link
I mean she befuddles me and I did not watch the Grammys.
I was listening to her album on the train and the song where Eminen (I assume? I didn't look but it sounded like him) raps about killing all the women in the world came on and my mouth got very prim and I turned it off and felt very old.
― carl agatha, Monday, 13 February 2012 17:24 (twelve years ago) link
I gave up hope of the grammy being "relevant" or "making sense" at some point in the mid-90s. I have still vaguely enjoyed watching some of them in the past few years though. It can be good Sunday night fare, while you are trying to forget how much you are dreading going back to work.
