Attack of the Killer B's

Off to the shower soon, but I'm getting so stoked for this show! Mark said we should ask them to play "Planet Claire," but I'm pretty sure they have been playing that one at their shows. I found a video from 2007, so I think we'll probably be hearing it tonight. I hope so, because like I to sing along with this one, especially the "No one has a head" line! Lyrics first, then video.

Planet Claire

Ahhhahhhahhahh

She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
Faster than the speed of light

Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head

Ahhhahhhahhahh

Some say she's from Mars
Or one of the seven stars
That shine after 3:30 in the morning
BUT SHE ISN'T!

She came from Planet Claire
She came from Planet Claire
She came from Planet Claire

Ahhhahhhahhahhahhahh

These boots aren't made for walking!

It seems the people have spoken.

Fishnets it is!

The boots are a no-go, though. I dug them out earlier today and tried them on. I'm glad I did, because wow, are they ever uncomfortable! I could handle them for a couple of hours at a party, but for several hours, no way. It's not the platform part--platform shoes are a 5-foot-tall gal's best friend! It's just how enclosed they are. I'd prefer to go barefoot! So instead of the boots, I have a pair of silver wedge sandals that, as Dr. Evil would say, are quasi-futuristic. They'll do quite nicely, and it's not too cold to wear them. It seems that I've reached the point where comfort trumps glamour. I'm cool with that--I can still get duded up when I need to, but I refuse to squish my toes into a pointy shoe!


I also couldn't find the skirt I was thinking of, but found one that I forgot I had! Pink and black, baby. So I'm all set. Someone suggested finding a bouffant wig, and it's not a bad idea, but it would probably drive me crazy. I'll stick with a ponytail or something. And yes, I'll make sure Ken takes a picture!

I hope everyone had a good day! I went to Circuit City to buy more memory today, because heaven knows I'm losing mine! SD cards for my camera were on sale, and so were flash drives, so I picked up a few more of those. While I was at it, I saw that the new Indiana Jones movie was out and on sale, so I got that since we never made it to the theater to see it. "The Untouchables" was also on sale, so I thought I'd continue to build our Mob movie library.

I've got a thing or two to do--and I still haven't read many blogs yet today!--so probably more later. Where the heck did the day go?

What to wear, what to wear...!

YES, I'm still up, doggone it. I'm trying to do better, but I'm not doing so well tonight!

Right after the debate, Cousin Shane and I IM'd about it. We had fun writing about it, and it was the first chance he'd had to watch one of the debates, so he was excited. After we stopped IM'ing, I got to thinking about how our B-52's concert is just a couple of days away! Woohooo! I told Mom today that Shane and I were going to a concert on Friday, and she asked who we were going to see. When I said "It's a band called The B-52's," she got such a kick out of their name!

So I got to thinking tonight about what I'm going to wear. Yeah, I know--bear with me, guys. The girls understand.

At first I was thinking, just go casual, wear jeans and a T-shirt. But then I thought, hey Beth, you don't go to that many concerts these days (just not that many going on here in South Bend, doncha know), and this IS the B-52's...so I'm thinking...I might have to do it up right.

I've got some platform boots. I've got fishnet stockings. I've got a short black skirt, and I've got lots of fun tops to wear with it. Not sure what I'll do with my hair, but I think it would be fun to go all B-52's with my outfit. What do you think? I'm going with my cousin, not out with the girls, so I'm obviously not on the prowl. I'm just thinking it might be fun to do it up right, and fully enjoy the experience that IS the B-52's! I'm starting to get psyched for this concert! Yippee!
