I have been reading, writing, wasting away at the beach under the pretense of making vitamin D and sacrificing my eardrums in the name of rock'n'roll. Saw The Black Lips (the show that got shut down two songs in), King Tuff, Nobunny, Night Beats, Thee Oh Sees and last weekend I saw Tycho in Dallas because surely I am their biggest groupie now having seen them in LA, San Diego and Dallas. They also signed my tits.<br />

<br />
A.) It is my birthday. I was born on a day in a year and all that matters is that right now we are celebrating my anniversary with life.<br />
<br />
B.) I am a Philophile. Phoebe Philo's philosophy, which speaks deeply to me, summed up:<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span class="" data-num="1" style="line-height: 22px; text-align: left;">So who are the Philophiles? “I like the idea that at Céline we attract a very varying group of women,” Ms. Philo said by e-mail while preparing for the March 4 presentation.</span><span style="line-height: 22px; text-align: left;"></span><span class="emHighlight" data-num="2" style="line-height: 22px; text-align: left;">“They are all different, but with the common thread of an appreciation for clothes that suggest something new but made to last far beyond fast-trend fashion.”</span></span><br />
<span class="emHighlight" data-num="2" style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="emReady emActive" data-key="KBsIta" data-num="4" data-sentences="2" itemprop="articleBody" style="line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span data-num="1">“Phoebe Philo at Céline creates a collection each season that is about building a wardrobe rather than focusing on throwaway trends.</span> <span data-num="2">I think, as a working woman (and mum), she really has that ability to resonate with what women want to wear.”</span></span></div>
<div class="emReady emActive" data-key="KBsIta" data-num="4" data-sentences="2" itemprop="articleBody" style="line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="emReady emActive" data-key="CcaCca" data-num="5" data-sentences="1" itemprop="articleBody" style="line-height: 1.467em; margin-bottom: 1em;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span class="" data-num="1">Céline’s critical and commercial success lies not only with the customers’ feelings for the clothes, but with their marketing and the public image of their designer</span>.</span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">As for her creative process, Ms. Philo said: “I am interested in consistency and what Céline will one day stand for. There are various words that always come up when I talk or think about starting a new collection: awareness, sharpness, fabric, reduced, new, refined, discretion and attitude.”</span></span>
<br />

C.) I have spent $1K+ on a handbag before, and I will again. But these days, I am not in the mood. So although the Celine Cabas tote was my dream bag, I decided to search for an alternative. I turned to Etsy and found <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Adimaa?ref=seller_info_count">Adimaa</a>, a Canadian leather goods designer, who custom made a bag with all the same aesthetics for me, for $120. And this bag is sumptuous, sturdy and beautiful. Happy birthday, me.<br />

And here are my siblings, here to help me celebrate my annual anniversary (redundant much?) with life.<br />

After two months of strict culling, the last large load of extra dishes (who needs more than one set?!), a box of dogeared novels (I'm trying to go strictly Kindle) and cookbooks (what isn't on the internet?), extra linens (that don't fit the new mattress) and fur coats (San Diego. Nuff said) will go to Goodwill this weekend.<br />
<br />
I'm left with not much.<br />

<br />
Buy my designer and vintage shit on ebay,<a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/goblinmycat/m.html"> here.</a><br />
<br />
I have been stricken by a desire-- a need-- to own less. The clutter around me began to weigh me down. Physically and mentally. I decided to sell, throw out or giveaway as much as I could. <br />
<br />
I used to keep everything, especially vintage and designer clothes, with the idea that one day it would be precious to leave behind an incredible, stylish, vintage, priceless wardrobe to my daughters or granddaughters. Then when I thought about how materialism and owning things is akin to shackles, I realized, why would I ever bring children into the world ALREADY burdened with belongings? I will travel the world with them, enrich their lives, and if they choose to fill it material goods-- that is their choice. I will not burden them from birth.<br />
<br />
At first there were hefty culls, lots of unworn and unused went out. Then deeper cuts were made-- "I love this, but when was the last time I used it?" It started with clothes and books and shoes-- things that take up space. Once a little space opened up, I wanted more and more. And I began getting rid of more, cutting deeper and deeper into my once-gripping materialism. Now, my rule is that I should be able to live out of a suitcase. And each and every item in that suitcase is perfect, high-quality and versatile. And I will spend my money on consumables-- things that I will not take to the grave-- expensive candles, better wines, The New York Times-- or else on timeless pieces-- a new leather jacket, diamond earrings-- or on travel.<br />
<br />
For those that know me, this life-changing obsession has been accompanied by a self-enforced period of singledom and celibacy. I'm not going to say it feels great, but it was much needed and you know what? It feels great. I am light, free, joyful and in my minimalism, I found the beginning of the path to enlightenment.<br />

It was one of the most amazing experiences and I got to see them on the big screen, for the first time, at their San Diego show last night at the Belly Up Tavern. Shot by the insanely talented <a href="http://www.charlesbergquist.com/">Charles Bergquist</a>, here's a few teasers.<br />
<br />

Scott, of Tycho, is also a graphic designer which is why his visuals are TOP NOTCH and why his shirts are swank as fuck.<br />
<br />
This week's edition of City Beat says about Tycho: "Scott Hansen crafts wistful, sun-baked electronic tunes that would offer the perfect soundtrack for a cosmic expedition."<br />
<br />
Yep. That about says it.<br />
<br />
Wanna see me in action and hear the track?<br />

Because, really, when most of vacationers are sunning themselves on San Diego beaches-- what better place to go than the northwesternmost tip of the United States! I got to wear wool socks, Doc Martens and a parka all weekend!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To prepare, I hit the army surplus store and how awesome that I should have a common last name.</div>

Then we hit the ol' dusty trail through Olympia, Aberdeen (of Kurt Cobain fame), Forks (of Twilight fame) and on to Kalaloch. There aren't words for how beautiful Second Beach was. I think I was on the Iron Islands (Game of Thrones, anyone?)</div>

My favorite bar in Seattle is a hidden prohibition-themed speakeasy called The Knee High Stocking Company. My favorite bartender, Kevin, was there again and I told him my four favorite ingredients for cocktails and he somehow combined them all into one scotch-blended elixir of refreshment. By the way, those four ingredients are maple syrup, cucumber, ginger and violet liquer. It was magical. </div>
