This be my first post. I don't have anything to say about myself. I don't have any cool pictures of myself doing fun things.
Everything posted by me will probably be a mess of bizarre images, clothing, music, or art.
BORING BORING BØRING

Fun With Nile
Nile was looking very hairy today... Good thing he cut his hair.
My new camera is F - U - N!
Since my room mates took the liberty to talk about their outfits, I decided to take the same liberty and talk about my ensemble. Today on January 28th I decided on a long sleeve thermal in grey (free! (stolen from Hilary Duerksen)) a green military shirt (free! compliments of my brother) a pair of grey thermal underwear (free, thanks mom) a pair of skivies (9$, undergear.com) a pair of black slacks (6$ buffalo exchage) and two pairs of black socks (free! thanks again Mommy) and one fine leather black belt (free! thanks Jim), one pair of fine leather Cocoran combat boots (139$ Mr.Leather.com) everyone needs good foot wear.
I choose to keep it simple and functional since I enjoy biking year round, yes even in the snow. One might wonder how such simplicity is attained and I would reply "simple," solid colors, muted tones, little detailing, natural fibers and fine textures will give anyone an anticlimactic look. If you enjoy looking drab, try and get most things you wear for free or for very little this will help keep your closet from getting too cluttered and will help you find that perfect outfit. Its hard to be choosy when you don't have anything. Buying used is a sure fire way to save you big dollars and you don't have to assume the responsibility of buying clothing that may have been made in unfair markets by children with guns to their heads, if its used only the original purchaser can assume that guilt. Thrifting is not only good for you wallet, its good for society, its the equivalent of recycling.
i think i might like beyonce.
well, i just watched the beyonce video for single lady's last night.
i like this better.
oh yeah, i was going to put up a picture of my outfit, but i lost my wallet. instead of taking the picture i was busy freaking out.
then i found it.

Cabin Fever
I whipped up a quick invitation to our Cabin Fever Party on Saturday night. We wanted to celebrate an American hero, the Lumber Jack.
If you're reading this post, you should be there.
It's a good time to get out of the house, the burliest people in Chicago will be at The Club Jimmy.
jena
this is my first post.
i don't really know what to say... this is what i wore today.
everything is from the thrift store.
the boots ($10) were spray painted ($3).
the pants ($2.5) i've had for 4 years, but could never figure out what to wear them with.
the turtleneck ($.9) is from the women's section.
($16.4)
i took this picture at work, and i was really nervous about someone finding me. but nobody saw me.
i sure do look queer in this picture. i think it's the hand on my hip.

Stay
I was just getting out of the shower when Lisa Loeb showed up at The Club Jimmy.
She heard Nile singing her hit song "Stay" all morning... so she wanted to have a special performance just for our guests and of course Nile.
I hope you enjoy this video as much as "I'm Walkin' on Sunshine!"

Huffing Duster
I figured out the mobile uploads! Hip, hip hurray! Now I can blog til my brains are fried...
In the meantime, wanna huff some duster?
(I found that lovely duster display at my local MicroCenter... But SHHHHHH! Don't tell Allison!!!)
SHE'S WALKIN' ON SUNSHINE!
Mobile Updates
I tired so hard to make a mobile post from bed. I guess this task is impossible, due to the fact that my Blackberry is a hater.
Here's the picture I was trying so hard to send last night. It's a drunken photo of the animal picnic Josh gave me for my 21st birthday.
Do you feel happy yet?
(the picture is a piece of dung and won't post.... ugh.)
jena
Jena eats rice with melted cheese and sour cream before she goes to sleep at night when she has been drinking shitty beer. Not just any rice, saffron rice that she made in her rice cooker with canned tomatoes and peppers. Her cheese came from Aldi. Her sour cream came from Jewel. Fire, fire, fiery saffron rice from the dark and and warm trench below the stomach of Lucifer.
