Things To Do In Seattle When You Only Have $5

     So recently, I got a new gay buddy, Andrew!

     He is my mom's friend's son and when we were younger our parents planned our weddings. Coincidentally, we both turned out gay! So this was the first time we really hung out and we went to downtown Seattle. I had about $7 and he had $5. So what did we do?

     -Gelato! There is a GREAT place at Pike Place Market. I never had gelato...Andew showed me this place for the first time. Also, around Pike Place Market there are some interesting spiritual stores where Andrew buys spiritual rocks or whatever...(gays, I don't understand them)

     -Crepes! A new crepes place opened up at Westlake Center called Yummy Crepes...I think. But it's owned by a bunch of Asian people and their crepes are about $5 and you can watch them make them!

     -Ride the elevator! That's right. There is a really good one at Westlake Center. It's not actually part of the mall, but it is connected to Westlake and this building is a business place. When it goes down, we pushed our weight upwards and for about a second it feels like there is no gravity!!! Another one is at the Washington State Convention Center. The gravity thing doesn't have as much power on this elevator, but the convention center is so cool when it's empty! The elevator has clear glass so you can see the freeway and everything.

Andrew said this is the future of plants

     That's pretty much all we did. There's also the option of taking the bus to a random place and exploring that.

What I Found At The Mall Yesterday

     Ok so Casey and I went queer clothes shopping and so I'm reporting about American Apparel and Urban Outfitter.

Urban Outfitter
     This store is amazing as you probably already know. I mean...look at this shirt we found!

 ^What a queerio^

     Urban is probably the best place for cool (guy's) t-shirts and also Hot Topic has cool t-shirts too.

Here are some of our favorite things we found at Urban:
     -This Jacket

 Here's a pic of us wearing it, but...I'm making a weird face so...

     -These leather sneakers

     -AND this OTHER jacket

   

     It's quite interesting and the color is guyish. It's weirdly cool! Looks like something our friend Kayla would wear. She's an interesting character, we'll have to interview her sometime.

     So those our 4 of our favorite things we found. Plus Urban is generally really good for all kinds of shoes, hats and ties!

 I like the American Flag looking ones. Very patriotic! 

I'm thinking about getting some American Flag boxer briefs

Love the blue and white striped. The are ties within the tie!

American Apparel 

     I don't think anyone buys anything from here besides their hoodies, underwear and occasionally their neon stuff for costumes.

  Got this from Am Apparel to make a spoof workout video. (Before I got my haircut)

     -Anyway, I think American Apparel has some pretty neat things in there, besides the hoodies. There's sleeveless hoodies! 

     $38 or you could just cut the sleeves off an old jacket. I think anything looks cool sleeveless these days. I know a girl who cut the sleeves off a blazer and another one who cut the sleeves off a denim jacket.

     

     -I also liked their really colorful running shorts.

I have yet to jog with these. 

     -These baseball shirts (I call em), but apparently they're called 3/4 Sleeve Raglan shirts. I didn't even know they had a men's and a women's one! Casey tried on the men's one and it was effing beautiful.

    

But she's insecure about her C cup breasts so I had to get a picture off the website.

     -I LOVE the texture on their bow ties!

     And of course...buy their legendary underwear. They have really nice shiny shoes, men's shorts, undies, leg warmers...what a crazy store. I LOVE IT. It's so gay in there cause everything's unisex.

     So that's what I found! Pretty soon we're going to do a report on finding tuxedos, suits and formal wear and how to pull of guy's clothes without looking like a total tranny.
