And babe, don't you know it's a pity? The days can't be like the nights in the summer, in the city.

A few weeks ago I went to a house show at one of the coolest and hippest places in the Boston area. I was kind of disappointed by the amount that I fit in, at least based on how I looked. I had a shaved head and a dress with a big skirt. Justin says there's nothing wrong with fitting into a group/stereotype, but it bugs me. Maybe it's because I don't like the idea of being a part of a group that doesn't have a productive cause. But maybe hipsters do have a cause.

Potential humanitarian causes:
(Note: this is not to mock of hipsters; I'm serious)
-To build community through music
-To appreciate the "little things"
-To promote vegetarianism (to save the environment, prevent animal cruelty, etc.)
-To stop global warming
-To promote the use of bikes (to save the environment, promote a healthy lifestyle, prevent traffic, etc.)

I don't know what else. But I guess there are plenty of things that most hipsters are especially conscientious of, so maybe it is a worthwhile subculture. The thing that bugs me is some people's desire to associate themselves with a culture to boost their self esteem, but that might not be as prominent in the hipster group as I originally thought. I am done with this subject. My conclusion is that I should try to be open minded toward all people, even if they blatantly associate themselves with a culture/subculture.

Play it cool, and saran wrap all you can.

Here's the deal: I got a bunch of free teacups today. I was going to go to the steam room at the Y with the Dogg, but we might go to ENC to watch The Motorcycle Diaries with Ashley and Kurtis. I guess it's one of Ashley's favorite movies, and I haven't seen it.

Earlier I went to Bellingham with my mom and Melisky to see the consignment shop that my cousin just opened, but it was closed when we got there, so we squished our faces against the glass to see inside. On the way home is when I got the tea cups.

Tomorrow I work all day for the first time in forever and I am psyched out of my mind about it. I have been broke this summer.

The next day I get my wisdom teeth out. Also psyched out of my mind about this. Actually, I was really nervous a while ago, but recently I pretty much stopped worrying. Maybe because I went to Nate's surgery. I am excited to drink dozens of smoothies and watch all of the movies that the Beatles made, probably starting with A Hard Day's Night. I've been wanting to watch them for years, but I could never find them until I saw them recently at Video Mania. And I figure there's no better time to watch them than when I'm doped up on painkillers.

My mom is getting extremely mad at our pets. I guess Henry keeps trying to play with Abigail, who hates him. Buffy thinks that Abigail is "antagonizing him."
