3.11.10-DMV and Fashion

Thanks for the pics from Lib.

This pretty much sums it up. Spent probably 5-6 hours today working on getting our licenses, NY insurance, and NY registration. Projects take forever here! But, we're almost there--if the car passes the emissions test, we're on our way!

I guess another thing I have been thinking of lately is fashion. I know, you're all surprised because I am so fashionable. ha. Honestly, I have never let myself spend money on nice clothes. The nice clothes I have are mostly Christmas gifts from our parents, along with some great buys from Lib.

There is really some great fashion here, though. Furthermore, I came out here intending to pursue photography--fashion photography being king here, I feel like I've had to think about it--so there. My dad has to be laughing at this point, if he reads this blog. We stopped by this small shop near St Marks today after getting some dollar pizza at 2 Bros. They had some really cool stuff that I wanted to buy Lib, but it was like $400. I'm definitely not to that point! Right now, there are three competing factors, maybe four, that are competing for my attention in this fashion question:

1. frivolous. sorry, that's how i feel. especially when you get caught up in buying things for the new 'season'. btw, flannel is/was back in style. and i threw all mine away like 8 years ago! but, it will be (already is?) out of style again very shortly! add to frivolous the thought of world-wide poverty, and i'm not buying the $400 dress. sorry lib.
2. reaally cool! great designs. it's art, it's expression, it's energy. i love to see stylin' people! and some people's outfits make me laugh!
3. the wallet. nuff said. i should be finding a job right now.
4. life-time and simplicity. i want something i can wear forever, but i don't want a lot. but there are also so many cool things to wear. back to frivolous..?

This is more of an exploration than a critical statement, and I'm trying to be honest. this is the problem i have whenever i go shopping.

I feel like I lost my manhood after writing this post.
