broadway, we passed a clothing store i just had to go in.  i&#8217;m very glad i did, because i left with a beautiful vietnamese poodle skirt made by a local designer.  it cost a lot more than i&#8217;d normally pay for such a piece of clothing, but i just could not say no.  while i was trying things on, the owner\/designer was talking to chris about the pinhole camera he was carrying and showing off the fabulous photos he has loaded on his ipod.  actually, if i were worried about such things, i&#8217;d think that she was hitting on him &#8212; hard &#8212; but, i&#8217;m sure she was just interested because she had studied photography and was intrigued by his unusual apparatus.<br \/>\nafter that effusive experience, we drove a little bit further down granville to hunt for a parking spot so we could go get christopher his sexy <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/hessiebell\/422635823\/\">new shoes<\/a>.   truly, they are beautiful.   i may be biased since they&#8217;re on his feet and they match the colour of my sofa perfectly, but i really do think they suit him to a T.  at first, i was concerned they&#8217;d be too red for casual wear, but since seeing them on, i&#8217;m sure he&#8217;ll be getting a lot of excellent wear out of them.<br \/>\nwhile in the neighbourhood, we stopped into the new Urban Outfitters store all the trendy hipsters are excited about.  together, we decided that it&#8217;s like Old Navy for people who listen to the Fiery Furnaces.  still, they got my attention with the home decor section and, of course, the Lomos.  i was <em>this<\/em> close to buying myself a fisheye2, but i reigned myself in just in the nick of time.  actually, it&#8217;s probably a good thing there&#8217;s nothing in that store, except scarves, which would fit me or i&#8217;d totally have outfitted myself from head to toe before leaving.  their stuff is very cute &#8212; almost <em>too<\/em> cute.   cute is a very fine line to balance upon.<br \/>\nsince the new H-Mart was on the way back to the car, we popped in to see what the fuss was all about.  it&#8217;s like a mini T&#038;T supermarket, with a much better food court.  i bought a couple bags of edamame, but nothing else really stood out.  i would like to go eat there one day, though.  maybe before the next show at richard&#8217;s we go to&#8230;<br \/>\ntomorrow, i&#8217;m planning on going to lunch &#038; a movie with my friend karen.  the plan is to eat at Burgoo and then see <i>300<\/i>.  it should be a good afternoon.  i&#8217;m hoping she&#8217;ll have time to come by the apartment since she hasn&#8217;t seen all the changes which have taken place.  speaking of, i have two new photos framed and hung:  jamie&#8217;s breathtaking photo of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/filmgoerjuan\/283267777\/\">the electra<\/a> and amanda olbrys&#8217; luminescent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/radioanalog\/387539255\/\">self-portrait<\/a> i purchased via deviantart.  colene facilitated the framing by letting me abuse her work discount &#8212; thank you again, colene!<br \/>\nposting will be in flux for the next while as i settle on a new routine.  i hope you&#8217;ve enjoyed the recent regularness, since there won&#8217;t be much of that for a while.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>it&#8217;s official: i&#8217;m old and i don&#8217;t adapt well to change (i understand they&#8217;re not mutually inclusive, but in this example, i&#8217;m fairly confident it&#8217;s a cause-and-effect relationship). my entire week has been plagued with DST-related sleep problems. the morning comes far too early, but even though the clock says it&#8217;s bedtime, my body knows <span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span> <span class=\"more-link-wrap\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/better_late_tha_3\/\" class=\"more-link\"><span>Read More &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-words"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2575"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2575\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
