My saint of a mother took me out shopping for my birthday yesterday (my birthday isn't actually until the 19th).
furry moccasin boots, for when it gets snowy.
these wicked boots, that I totally am in love with.
zippery bag. love it.
this coat! i almost got this other cool furry stripey one, but it felt too fancy and it weighed a ton. This is the first coat I have ever owned that I totally love and want to wear all the time (I'm usually very anti-coat-wearing for some dumb reason).
the big, floppy cloak-style hood is my favourite part.
We went out to Red Lobster beforehand and had fancy drinks and gorged ourselves on tons of amazing seafood. Ughhhhh I love seafood. My only complaint is that my lobster was a little on the rubbery side. Oh well. Still beats regular meat any day. Our waiter looked like Jim from the Office and was super cute and sweet. He offered to sing me a birthday song but I awkwardly declined haha. Why is it that every time my mom and I go out for dinner together we're always the troublemakers? Our whole section was full of old geezers, and here we are laughing like hyenas and talking about our boobs.
Was kinda bored all day today. I skipped out on band practice because I had a raging headache (and a hangover to boot). Dave went up to Biff's after practice and hung out with him all day. At around 12 I was all ready to go out and I was going to cab up to Biff's place and have a few beers with those guys and listen to records. But then Dave said he was on his way home. I still wanted to go out so I went over to This Ain't Hollywood for a bit. As soon as I got there I ran into Lou, Glen, Brian and Dredd, so we all went and smoked a bowl in the parking lot across the street. Glen is the best when he's wasted, he's so fucking hilarious. Hung out at the bar for about an hour, had a few caesars (Darlene makes the best in town, I swear!), listened to some annoying, loud, self-involved chick ramble on to Lou about her kitchen skills (I think she's trying to get him to hire her for the kitchen that we're trying to open up in the other part of the bar) and I wanted to put a sock in her mouth.
I'm trying to remember what I did last night... oh yeah. We went to Darlene's art show @ TAH for a bit, pigged out on these delicious hors d'oeuvres that her boyfriend Robbie made, I found a print that I am going to buy from her, and then Dave, Biff and I went over to the Casbah. I thought about photographing Die Mannequin, but the place was tits-packed and I couldn't even be bothered. They kind of suck now anyway. Relocated over to the lounge side for some punk. Brodie bought us shots of tequila that we followed with Clamato juice. It was pretty much the best combination of things that I have ever put in my mouth.
Man I really have to go xmas shopping this week. I just want to get it over with so I don't have to deal with annoying xmas shoppers for another year.
