The text of the postcard is

Dear Ellen,

This week I’m going to Austin for SxSW (South by Southwest). I’ll get to see the latest in hip fashion.

I will be staring, wide-eyed and weirded out, like Luke Skywalker at the Mos Eisley spaceport.

Sincerely,

P.S. I can’t decide if I’d be excited or annoyed if hipsters decided to love Star Wars. On the one hand, sweet!, more people will get this postcard. On the other, I’d have to say that I liked Star Wars before it was cool.

Why am I doing this?

SxSW 2013 Stages

SxSW 2013 6th Street

So many people, so little time to stand around laughing at the style choices. (And hey, I provided plenty of fodder, I wore pink pants one day.)

 

SxSW 2013 Latitude 30

Just seeing this guys shirt was all you needed to know he was in a band. (I’m talking about the lead singer in the floral print shirt.)

SxSW 2013 The Belmont

Matching yellow blazers and a dance routine to go with it. These guys, Capital Cities, put on a good show.

SxSW 2013 The Stage

They had a lot of good acts … So when you think up-and-coming bands, think HGTV.

SxSW 2013 VICE Bar

There was a tall, skinny dude dancing for a while which looked cool. No funny story, it just looked cool in the lighting.

Dear Ellen,

SxSW is over! School has started up again! I’m back at work! And I think I may be coming down with a cold! And I forgot if exclamation points convey excitement or extreme sadness!

Please … help …
