You know, the more I think about this in this two-minute span, the more I feel like we should have seen this coming. Blue French horn. Something blue. What do you give the bribe to be? Not to mention that this is something that was heavy on the show. The horn and the yellow umbrella. That's not what this post is about. Y'all already know how I feel about that ending. Even with that, I love the show none the less. That's why I had to make this post.
I ran across something amazing and I wanted to share with my fellow 'How I Met Your Mother' fans. Sidenote: Hopefully 'How I Met Your Father' gets the green light. The way it should be formatted, of course.
The Blue French Horn. No matter where you sit on the fence about how the show ended, we can all agree that it is one of the best moments in the show. The stealing of it. The line.
Robin: "You stole the Blue French Horn for me?"Everything about it was romantic. Even the "Suiting up". More romantic than Lloyd holding a boombox outside of Diane’s window, or the Tramp saving the last meatball for Lady!
Ted: "I would have stolen you a whole orchestra."
Now, this isn't the one I have. I was able to find one with the horn and the umbrella. (Below)
Get this for yourself or for the HIMYM fan in your life. Trust me, they will love it.
Here's the link again.

I was wearing my peanuts at the same time I saw Erykah wearing the peanuts. Great minds think alike. She seems to have been more in the zone with the matching she did. She did some of that Badu style cause if you or I did this, we would look like we work at Mickey D's. Telling people the ice cream machine broken causes we don't wanna clean it. (At least that's what I think happens. Cause c'mon they all can't be broke.)
I wore red and yellow once. It was so ugly I stayed away forever. This is not the first and last you will see from Vans when it comes to Charlie Brown and the gang.
I dare to not get too funky with the tee. I don't want anything to take away from the closing show stopper. Too much of the top takes away from the bottom and makes one big mess. Neither shines. Be more open to the plain. It goes a long way.
Cut the light off, go home. The show has been won, folks. Nothing to see here. Actually, everything thing is to be seen. Take it all in. Didn't get too fancy at the top for this bottom can flex on everybody. This is slowly becoming my favorite Vans mashups. Reminds me of the things I used to do in high school. Drawing all over any and everything.
Now go ahead and wear this one. Just make sure you not wearing it at the same time as me. Unless you want to get a picture together. Have the caption ready.

The trill is gone. The trill is gone away. Halt and Catch Fire has been CTRL, ALT and you know the rest. This show will be missed and years from now, people will find this masterpiece and be shocked it was canceled. They should look in the mirror and see why (Cause you didn't watch). That's not what this is even about. Just wanted to toss that out there.
Let's just get to the shows I been watching lately.
Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO)
Maybe it's cause they have been away and we missed they face; this season is one of the best. I don't know. Just something about this current season is killing me. "Thank You for Your Service" falls into the top five episodes in this show history. This is prime Larry David shit right here. From the mail lady to the golf club and the Revolutionary War reenactment. Top fucking five.
I swear that is not a promotion for HBO. They just have my eye on these two. I tweeted about this show a couple times. Join in on some off-hours live tweeting. From the creators of The Wire. The Deuce tells the story of the legalization and ensuing rise of the porn industry in New York beginning in the 1970s. Themes explored include the violence of the drug epidemic and the resulting real estate booms and busts that coincided with the change. The show's title is derived from the nickname for 42nd Street between Seventh Avenue and Eighth Avenue. This is one of the drive digs that The Wire do. Taking something that the world looks down upon and giving it heart.
Well, I didn't know that I watch this must HBO. Really didn't mean for this to turn HBO heavy. It is what it is and now it is (Sounds like I'm rapping). Anyways, we gonna get a part two. Everything, not HBO. Unlike me, I think that Danny McBride is doing things like this on purpose. He keeps being apart of shows that have short runs. East Bound and Down. Over the top series that followed the life of a washed up, foul mouth baseball player. Kenny Powers. That series was four seasons. Cool. Now he comes back to HBO and he fucking with us at this point. Vince Principals was always meant to be just two seasons. Two. Seasons. That's the interesting take on this show. They went in from day one knowing when it would end so leading to the close wouldn't be a surprise that would lead holes in the story. Vice Principals focuses on ill-tempered, dogmatic, and disliked vice principal of North Jackson High School Neal Gamby, and his ambitions of being promoted to the principal's chair when the principal is due to step down
GET OUT (HBO)
That space between the movie being in theaters and when it comes out on DVD or some streaming service seem to be getting shorter but this one seems long as hell. I feel like HBO been teasing this coming for the longest. It should have been Halloween. It came (finally) last week. I have been wanting to see this movie for the longest after seeing it a while ago. Movie theater here didn't even have it. I actually would have been shocked if they did. Anyways. I had to drive 30 minutes to see it. Regardless, I love the movie and I can watch it whenever I want to.
Hidden Figures (HBO)
This movie is Black Girl Magic. I really don't need to say no more.
P.S. I really won't be saying more about Hidden Figures. Black Girl Magic should be enough.

Something about this is catching my eye. Fast. Since first seeing it. I think we all are waiting to see when this is being dropped and we have the answers. According to sneaker news IG account WTS1987, the coveted black and white collab kicks will see a drop happening in March of 2018.
Simple and making the point is always the way I love most of my sneakers. Let me know what you think in the comments.

The iconic Air Max 90 gets reinvented in all the right ways. The new version of this classic runner features a no-sew construction all throughout the upper that has been doused in Natural Grey. The star of the sneaker is seen on the side panels courtesy of the large “AIR MAX” branding in Crimson. The shoe is then finished with a white midsole and black rubber outsole.
Help me out with this one. How do you feel about this? I'm on the line about it. I like it but not so much in love with this. I don't need to be in love to get the sneakers but hit or miss seems to be strong with this one. So I'm asking y'all. What ya'll think.
I would have love for this to be more of the OG air max. With the details and stitching and drop the big logo and color blocking over it. Now that would have been amazing. I don't know. Just wanted to share some of the thoughts that go into what I do before buying something.
So let me know what you think.
