The City Sees us All Like Babes

What a beautiful day it was today in downtown Dallas! It was my mom's birthday so I took her to the Zodiac Restaurant at the flagship Neiman's. It was really nice to spend some one-on-one time with her before I jet off to Berkeley on Thursday. I can't believe it's happening so soon! All summer I thought "wow this couldn't be going by any slower, I'm so ready to get back!" but now that it's happening, I'm frantically spending my last moments with my friends here and also frantically packing because I've completely neglected to do that up until this moment. Anyways, I was really happy to finally have an occasion to wear this dress! I had my eyes on it for a while and finally bought it during a 50% of sale sale when I worked at Urban last summer (I got a good deal, no big). I had literally worn it once to work and then just kinda had it in my closet waiting for the perfect outing to wear it to, and I finally found one! 

My last days of summer have been pretty great though. I saw Soundgarden and Nine Inch Nails with my step-dad on Sunday night and that was awesome! I'm pretty sure I was one of maybe 10 females under 27 (all the others were in father-daughter pairs too), and needless to say people watching was great (die-hard NIN fans...wow).  Soundgarden was amazing and Chris Cornell's voice is still actual perfection. I really don't know how he does it, but I'm not going to question it and just keep enjoying it's existence on this earth. 

Despite recent grunge and industrial metal happenings, Interpol released their second single off El Pintor TODAY, so naturally that has to be the song of the day. It's called Ancient Ways and it's pretty great if I do say so myself. I'm so excited for El Pintor to come out on September 9th AND for me to go see them on September 20th! So many things happening in September, its sure to be a great month!
