antony
well well well last night was beyond my expectations. never in my life would i have pictured going to a concert and leaving with such a feeling of happiness juxtaposed with sadness and hope. Davey and I had excellent seats. So great that we were seated next to drew barrymore and about ten feat away from antony and the orchestra. antony played a lot of great material but my favorite moment of the night was when he transitioned into 'I Fell in Love With a Dead Boy' I was so blessed to see something so great last night and truly in such a beautiful theater. Going to the disney concert hall is quite comparable to going to an airport. I was filled with such excitement and questioning the unknown and everyone seemed to be so anxious for the evening ahead. I felt like I was floating through the concert hall, and the moment the show began everyone became so quiet and still it was truly magnificent.
watching shows like that always make me wonder about myself. They make me feel a certain way for quiet a while and I cling close to those feelings for as long as I can because I don't want to let them go. Antony was dressed in this white gown that had some sort of swirled detailing along the shoulders. It looked like icing on an extravagant wedding cake. He was wearing a pair of oxford flats that looked oddly similar to a pair I just picked up at forever 21 that according to davey resembled something estelle getty would wear. the more and more time progresses the more davey is taking note of my odd coincidences with gay men. regardless of my delusions of grandeur i feel very lucky to have experienced last night. plus check out my new toy that I picked up in the gift shop:
it's a magnet!

edgar allan poe
who knew that poetry written by a macabre poet could take on such life and beauty in an antony and the johnsons song?
i have been brushing up on some new antony songs as I will be going to the disney concert hall on tuesday for what i hope to be one of the best things I ever witness in my life.
whilst youtubing i came across this video which I couldn't help but post as it made me cry. i must be extremely sensitive right now because this song has no relevance really to my own life but the scene itself is so sad to me. Antony's voice is so beautiful the only thing that doesn't get my seal of approval in this vid is the weenie flash. sorry folks!

madness
this week has been very busy.i celebrated royale's birthday at an indian restaurant named 'electric karma' i didn't eat anything but i did however watch loads of bollywood videos inside the restaurant.
between the smells of curry and mint sauce i managed to spend a bit of time with some faces i haven't seen in a while. i suppose this whole growing-up thing has taken its toll on my old partying ways.
amanda finally moved down here so to celebrate her arrival we drove to the bodega in santa monica. The bodega is a cutesy little lounge that doesn't offer hard alcohol but instead an array of appetizers and best of all strongbow. we finished the night at swingers and then i drove home with my front head light out and a fear of getting pulled over.
friday was christinas birthday. nothing to be said there as christina was nowhere to be found. i had to work anyway, and then pick up davey at the st. simon and jude fair that he was volunteering at with my dad.
saturday was spent with my nephew perusing through holloween costume ideas and eating in and out french fries.
sunday antiquing with the fam and then work followed by a bbq that i was twenty minutes too late for. I ate del taco for the upteenth time and watched an amazing episode of dexter.
today i am at work until really late, haven't ate dinner as i am trying to be cheap and save money. i already spent my allotment for today on starbucks and chipotle so dinner will just have to wait.

london!
it's been 13 months since I have last been to the uk and it really feels like a lifetime. I can't remember the last time I have missed a city so much. in order to concentrate my sadness in a more positive way I began watching a live feed of the city on the following website:
http://www.earthcam.com/uk/england/london/
now, it's not a super fast connection so the feed itself freezes and takes a while to load, but it is so worth it just to see the people walk by in their coats and scarfs while I roast in california in 95 degree weather (in october).
