You can't touch music,but music can touch you.
I am in New York City for the weekend. Catching the last LCD Soundsystem show at Madison Square Garden. Excited. Going to do some shopping in Soho tomorrow before the concert. It will probably just be me ooohhing and ahhing over ridiculously priced clothes, but that is fun on its own.
Stressing out about the future like everyone else. Eric is looking for a job and most them are literally in the middle of nowhere, so when I say I don't want to to move there I feel like I am being difficult because he doesn't care so much. I know academic jobs are hard to come by,but I don't want to move somewhere and be miserable. I spent all of college in a small town kind of place and I hated it. I hated being one of the few p.o.c. or the only one in a large group of people.I like having things to do nearby and not having to drive ages to get anywhere. And idk my family life growing up was crappy and college was awful. I feel like for the first time I have a real home and family and friends and maybe I can be happy. But we can always make a home somewhere else and it seems like everyone wants to leave or has already left DC so maybe that part is all temporary anyways.Ugh, I really hate talking about this stuff, so if you see me, don't ask about it haha.
Haven't been on lj for awhile and it seems like everyone has started updating again which great. I will have lots to read when I get home. :)
I recently spent a lovely Saturday with my lovely friends Zach Handler and Sid and April Pink up in Baltimore.Zach is a photographer and Sid is an illustrator. I met Zach on a cross country flight from Baltimore to Los Angeles last summer on the way to SDCC. We have managed to keep in touch. Anyways, we ate vegan food and went to the BMA which is really great. The founder's collection (I forget what it is called) is amazing. Manets and Matisses and lots of good stuff.I would heartily recommend going there if you are ever in Baltimore.
What else? I really miss Lost and Lost fandom.
Also, I need a Regular Show icon.
