Shocker last night from Rogers. Told me I maxed out on my internet usage and now they’re charging me per GB. For me, that’s like trying to keep me from someone I love. Putting restrictions on the time we spend together. I want no limits and I want to be able to spend all the time I want together. I heard from a little bird that it’s gonna get worse too. I was really mad at Rogers, but I’m not anymore. I’ll just have to take it! You can’t keep me from the internet.
I didn’t shave the sides right down again, just a snip. Sorry @brundly_fly, I know what you said. I’d like it to grow a bit but the thing is that it’s going to be awkward and I refuse to have it look ugly. So, for now, it’s kinda same but not half shaved anymore, just short. If you want someone cool to do your hair, go see Darren. His spot is right across from Trinity Bellwoods and the vibe in there is so chill. I love. I love.
I arrived home to find out we had two packages AND they were both for me. Lucky day! I got two great snags. I’m not sure where the book came from but the video came from The Comedy Network. They wanna send me stuff now. THANK YOU! Getting mail is one of my most favorite things, especially surprise mail. HINT HINT ♥
I watched a bunch of the DVD and was Tweeting up my appearance at #hohoto (as in I wasn’t there but I was pretending via Tweets I was). I almost for got how funny Brett and Jemaine are. Remember when I met them? I decided to actually make an appearance and I showed up sober at about 12:30 as the party was closing down. Let me tell you, best time to show up. Everyone was drunk and was SO happy to see me. Felt like a star. They raised a bunch of money for the Food Bank and it looked like it was a really good time. Nice work guys!
p.s. My site is being so slow. Know how to make it fast? Please email me. okthxbai
one more thing: I’m in love with this girl now thanks to @misslava from Ad Girl and Tech Nerd for sharing. Omg, she’s the cutest little Raggamuffin.
I had a teacher in college that said he was spending the summer in beautiful Balconia and I assumed it was somewhere in Europe. Nope, Blaconia = balcony, as in your own. It’s a more mod and exotic way to say the now popular term ‘staycation’.
These are something things in my room I like a lot.
Natalie Dee = favorite comic. She’s a riot. She posts new ones everyday. I have heaps of hers saved to look at later. This is a good one. One of my first blog stickers is on the bottom.
One of my most favorite photos us us girls. It was in the back yard at Mum’s one summer. It’s been ages since I went home. I reckon i’m due.
We used to have this Zen page-a-day calendar at home back in the 1990′s. I always really like the Shakespeare ones.
When I was growing up Mum had a best friend named Pat Hope. They’re still best friends. They lived around the corner from us. Pat only had one son but no daughters.
To us, she was like a fairy god mother. She was our second mum. She would pick up girly things on her travels like jewelry and dresses. She always had sweet treats with her.
She had a room full of bunny things. She dressed beautifully and had great style. Her house was always beautiful and decorated better than any other…for every occasion. She would host elegant dinner parties with a long list of guests. Snacks on every table. She rules, my second mum.
They came to visit Jenie and I after work. Was excited to show Mum new comp and helmet. She was really happy. Had some wine and chatted while the Y&R was on.
Found out today that it was Dad that got Mum into watching it before I was born. Dad picked my name from the show. Casey was Nikki Newman’s sister, a hot doctor. It’s great having them over for a visit.
I’m finishing a poutine at Jack Astors. It was really good, like from a cafeteria, just how I like it. I turned Bjork on the YouTube. “Its all so quiet, it’s all so still, we’re all alone and so peaceful until”….Kylie Minogue comes on.
I believe in you. Reminds me of my darling gay roommate from Finland dancing in our Aussie kitchen in his tighty whitey’s. His name was Juuso, you say it like ‘you-so.’ ‘You so crazy’ we used to say. I love him still. I always picture him and his blonde-hair-blue-eyes-slim-figure in a sailor suit. Smiling.
This keyboard is kinda small but it’s how I prefer it for my little hands. I have to get used to it that’s all. I have little hands. I have tiny feet too, like a 5 or 6. I like being able to have a little unit where I can catalog my thoughts. Having a blog is really fun.
I read it. I laugh with my friends. I’ve done much of it not telling or showing my friends too much. Most have no idea about the youtube or vimeo. I like when they finally see I’ve let the crazy cat outta the bag, in a good way that is. Showed Luis a bunch of videos last night, he likes the Casie Stewart Show.
I’m between the clouds. I’m 34,000 feet tall. Floating, flying, soaring. The sun is setting in the sky. Sitting right here, the power went off before we left and my heart dropped as I fought my own panic button. The lights didn’t even turn on. Why is there no wi-fi on this thing?
I’m 130 miles from Washington, that’s twenty minutes. I’m much further than that from home. I might be even further than that if I don’t make this connecting flight. I’ll have to spend the night in Washington in hotel all by myself and miss a day of work. I missed my flight last time and I’m sure my boss would think I planned it. I watched some really cool documentary snippets.
* Looked it up
It was This American Life, Season Two, Episode 3 about Going Down in History. The kids in school talked about their lives and things then sat there to take one cheezy photo for the yearbook. That photo, the same pose they do every year represented nothing about what their life was really like at that very moment. I liked it. It was one of those shows that was fast and creative and stays on your mind even when it’s over.
One part was about two guys who escaped from an institution using rope they made from dental floss. Very creative. I was scheduled for the middle seat but I got the aisle. I’ve been wondering if the two beside me know each other or it was just in my cards to be lucky. I can’t tell.
The gate for my connecting flight is different than the one on my ticket . Now, because of that, the girl said ‘you’re really close’ and looked at me happily. I’m going to make it now.
Ok computer, we’re almost home. Prepare for landing.
I almost missed my flight this morning as I woke up late to my driver knocking at my door after waiting for over half an hour. Had to pay for that. I arrived to Pearson International at 5am for a 6 am flight and wisked my way through customs to barely make it. Switched in Washington and barely made that too.
I toured around downtown Boston with my friend. Beautiful city. I love it here. The history and old buildings amazes me and I’ve been soaking it up all day. Beautiful day it was too.
I rode around on the Boston Duck tour (kinda like the Hippo Tour we have in TO) and got to go on the Charles River. I also got to drive the Duck Truck/Boat. I also made BFF’s with a 4 year old who got to drive it too. We got stickers.
I’ve got a heap of photos to add but i’ll get to that later. Just had a dip in the pool and a beer at the house. Heading downton for dinner. It’s been a really great day.
I’ve been through some tough times with my comp-units over the past year. Lost, stolen, broken, wine spilled on. Yes, tragic. You may remember one of my favorite tales Me, The Men, The Machines.
The time has come for me to purchase a new laptop. I want a mini guy that is PC and not MAC. Please don’t try and convince me to switch, I’m just not that into it. I’m looking for durability and value. I’m really hard on stuff and I don’t want to spend too much because I might break/lose it and I’m likely going to replace it in a year or two anyways.
If you know someone who might wanna hook a sista up with a good deal, don’t hold back AT ALL. They will get huge perks from me like mad links and BFF status. I’m gonna be taking my new unit everywhere I go and using it for everything I do. That’s huge value right there.
A couple years ago Mum gave me the a book called “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz.
It makes me feel less anxiety when I carry it around. It’s one of those you keep in your purse and when someone says something or does something to make you feel not as awesome as you should, I reach for it and read it over a couple times. I refuse to lend it out because I’d hate to not get it back. That always happens with book lending. The Four Agreements are great when you want to be inspired or motivated to keep a positive attitude. My favorite line is in the beginning and it’s the title of this post.
