a day in the life of me by: casie

Americano & apple fritter. Sit down at desk. Turn on TV. Login to computer. Open Firefox. Brizzly and four Twitter accounts. Facebook; work and personal. Check email. Check  site stats. Watch Lady Gaga. I love you. Message Twitter. Update the Facebook. Check messages. Friday & Saturday conference. Sunday family. Not tired today. Had a good sleep with you. Thanks. Apple fritter could be fresher but coffee is divine. It’s raining but no wellies. Circa for lunch to hang with Richard Branson. Tomorrow night’s dinner with Jeff and Justin Trudeau. I’m happy to be alive and excited about my life. Sounds like something Dr. Phil would say, haha. Have a great day.

hills review one an two (part one)

Omg bad date. Whitney is cool but this guy is snotty cool and not cool to hang out with. Better with his mouth shut. She thinks, “Blind dates suck, I wanna kill myself.” Then, the other girls date, “I left my mark on LA” she says, “She’s tall and blonde” about her friend. Urgh, disaster date. Me thinks, “Get me outta here”, bathroom break [take purse and jacket, leave]. OMG. I say it out loud, like and annoying young girl that like, totes love The Hills dude.

hills review part one and two (part two)

Jesse and Dan are in workout wear. He’s going topless tonight. I’m topless with excitement. I wanna go the Hills/City Finale in NYC. Nobody paid me to say this, I actually freaking like it ok. I used to watch it before  but stopped and now it’s so funny.  Canon with Avril from Brainstorm Group is a jem commercial, love it. Cigarette break. Smoking is stipid but I like it. Busy ratauraunt, work lunch with the blondes Erin and Olivia. That woman from Elle Magazine’s hair is fluffy alright. Erin, in the red shirt girl is angry, looks jealous. She should really sit up straight too. Them talking in the office is so loud. Annoying. Inappropriate to day the least. Drama-mama. Dan is gonna take his shirt off. Omg. Here we go. He’s nervous, haha. Looks good.

i love you in the morning and in the afternoon

I came home for lunch today. Stripped down and ate lunch in my bed watching TV. What could be better? I can think of a few things, but not that many. I had leftover salmon, fried pineapple & brown rice with the sun on my face. I’m feeling exhausted and excited at the same time. I want to rest but can’t. I want to shut it all off but the light keeps shining bright on me. Big meeting tonight and Keri‘s blog party, then home to bed. I’m looking forward to the weekend so I can snuggle up and sleep in. Have a great day.

where every little thing had its own secret life

I’m sitting here eating a big fatty poutine and my mind is racing with all the things I have to get done. Spent the weekend doing fun stuff with friends.  It was Jeff’s birthday and Karrera came over and tested me for allergies too. More on that stuff later. I’ve got heaps of emails that need my attention, not to mention all the work I have to get done at the office. I’m not complaining, I truly love it, I just wish there were more hours in a day or I could function without sleeping.  I had an awesome week last week. I got asked to attend a Young Entrepreneurs Conference this weekend as a Social Media Star & MTV girl.  I’m working on a part for a pilot with YTV. Paid writing gigs are becoming more frequent.  I’ve got some holiday giveaways planned for December with some Givenchy and Burts Bees for you. AND people keep asking me for advice on social media. Finally, my hard work is paying off!! On a naughtier note, I watched Sex Rehab last night. I saw a promo for it at the office and though it would be interesting…it is.  I’ll be tuning in every Sunday for therapy. haha I also wanna be Lady Gaga in Bad Romace. zomg. One more thing, Keri’s blog party is tomorrow night at 6:30. Get the info here and hope to see you there! Have a great day!

TGIF: Twitter, Google, Internet, Facebook

That’s my day in a nutshell, everyday. I read about TGIF in an article from Ad Age this week.  It’s lovely outside and my day is busy, busy, busy. Some Tweetness in my day: The Agenda & LA Times blog editor Tony Pierce recommended you follow me on Twitter. Blogging babe Lisa aka Urban Native Girl wrote for a magazine. Raymi’s in the Torontoist. New word: Framilies Thanks for comments BTW, don’t stop. It’s nice to get feedback. You come and look and read and laugh and when you comment it’s like giving back. Ok bye for now. #TGIF

they’re over rated and rarely worn

It’s been going on for a while, or should I say not going on…on my legs, pants that is. Yes, pants.  I rarely wear them. I’ve got under ten pairs now since I cleaned out my closet. I gave away all the ones I never wore. They just didn’t get used. I saw this post earlier today and HA..thanks to GaGa and all the other Hollywood whores, no pants is picking up speed. There’s a bunch of references to me and #nopants in Google from the last year. I usually wear tights but with a skirt, long shirt or DRESS. Tights are not pants. Once I had a boyfriend take me shopping just so I would wear pants jeans, they’re just not my thing. Looking forward to The 9th Annual Toronto No Pants ride in January 2010. I’ll be riding that rocket for sure. Here’s a little dance for you from me. Happy HUMP day.

reality tv, internet celebrity, blah blah balls balls

I used to watch The O.C., seems like ages ago when THAT was on. I loved that show. Marissa. Cooper. I got into Laguna Beach next it wasn’t as good but it was. It was realer but then also turned out to be fake-real. I know a bit of the gossip from the internet but I’ve not been watching those kids that much. I did tonight though…I watched The Hills. Knowing what’s happening on the show will only help my job. Here we go… Brody’s Mom, plastic surgery much? I like Jayde, she’s nice, hot and Canadian. Kristin not so much. She did get skinnier from when I used to watch though. When Audrina talks all I hear is ‘wah wah’. She’s kinda like a Jennifer Aniston in the getting-publicly-dumped, ‘i’m annoying’ way. Look me with longish hair! Throwback 2006 to the Moxie Princess Party. There was tons of us, all in crinoline’s, glitter and  crowns. Heidi and Spencer are definitely unique, the thought of them having kids gives the tabloids panty soup I’m sure.  His appointment at the vasectomy doctor painful but Heidi saying “Hi honey, I snipped by balls off” was almost worth watching the show alone. It’s more drama in 30 minutes than an hour of the Young and the Restless, that’s for sure. It was nominated a Peoples Choice Award, ‘Favorite TV Obsession. I’ll be watching it from now on. Don’t worry. I’ll keep the updates to a minumum 🙂

her world is rainbows, unicorns and flying stars

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. The weekend, yesterday, today. What more could you ask for than Spring in November? Summer in December? Ah, a girl can dream can’t she? Yes, a girl can dream. I absolutely love walking to work in the morning and home again at night. No more TTC, just me, an outfit and my cute little boots on the pavement. I really need to put some music on my ipod. I’ve been so wrapped up dreaming of iphone, I forgot about the little guy. Couple things to let you know… Just added a review to Chick Advisor, check it out.  I’ll be at the National Ballet tomorrow night for wine tasting (thanks for the invite). You’re welcome to join me, there’s still tickets. I’ve been listening to some pretty rad tunes lately including the new album from Yacht (who I love) and Adriane Lake (her album). I picked this little guy up on the weekend. Don’t you want it? I thought it represented me well. The store is Queen and Dovercourt and they’ve got a little sale on right now. I’ve started making some really snazzy jewels myself. All custom made and all one of a kind. I’ll post photos soon. Two friends were in the Financial Post yesterday, check out  Sarah from Sprouter and Mike from Scribble Live. They are both part of the awesomeness that made Toronto Twestival this year a huge success. Have an awesome day!

lets not play games with each other ok?

It was freezing cold out last night. We did just what mature responsible adults do. Eat warm homemade chilli, drink wine, play board games. It was my very first time playing Cranium and I was stoked. This is me acting out “Winnie the Pooh”. Can’t you totally tell? Amy and I realized that we’ve been friends for a while yet never ‘actually’ hung out.  Crossing paths online and offline for god knows how long. It was about time. She’s in town from Quebec and it was a special treat to spend the night laughing together. I can draw pretty good…except with my eyes closed. It’s really harder than you think. You should probably try it this afternoon. Kelly may be better than me? Amy and I WON the game of Risk after. I have always hated that game but found a new love for it. Being on a team makes it way more fun. I went to bed early and woke up early and it feels wonderful. Today I’m going to a Frock Swap and then gonna Shmotter my closet. Enjoy the day. It’s beautifully chilly and sunny at the same time.

a woman needs a man like a fish a bicycle

Feeling busy today and it’s only eight am. I’m ready for the weekend. It’s been a busy week. My wrist has been hurting, stress. Castor oil really helps, thanks Mum. The MTV Video Music Awards will be live on MTV.ca today and I’ll be Tweeting about it for work. I’ve got an album to review from Musebox, Adriane Lake. Watched my friends from Scribblelive on Dragons Den last night. Attending the opening of O’Brien‘s Roosevelt Room tonight and missing Art Battle. Possible attendance to see a major band tonight in style, depending on my tiredness. Came home for lunch yesterday, felt great to do that. Made today’s lunch last night. Been daily reading Zucket’s secrets and Raymi’s public life. I need to take more photos. I need a coffee today for sure. Nominations for the 2009 Weblog Awards opened yesterday, if you love, please nominate me for Best Twitterer or Best Canadian Blog. Raymi pretty much owns this yearly but it’s worth a shot! Enjoy the day. Rain boots and a brolly necessary!

just when you thought it couldn’t get….

…any better! I realized a few things yesterday as the clock struck 5pm, I’m not rush to get the hell out of here like my old job and omg, the Y&R is on and I have a TV with cable sitting right here at my very own freaking desk. No lie. I thought to myself as turned to my new friend and I swear the look on my face was if I had died and gone to job heaven again for the 40th time since yesterday. I confessed out loud “I can watch my show at work, do you know how happy this makes me?” So happy. Gah. I swear guys, if you really want something go out there and GET IT! Don’t hold yourself back, you’re the only one standing in your way. I also got some great news yesterday that made me really proud …my old office UNBLOCKED Twitter and Facebook. Yep, now that I’m gone. They hated what I was doing and I loved it.  haha!  I should have totally sent out an interoffice email with my Twitter ID before I left. Have a great day!

the old cat lady stole the best pumpkin

Saturday night was a fun one. After a lovely dinner it was time to make blood and put on the war paint. It’s amazing how you can look so lovely on one minute and completely disgusting the next. Zombie Wonder Woman is one of my new fav’s. It was a total hit. Kory made a very pretty Queen of Hearts. I look so scary and gross in this one. These masks are scary too…aaah.

too cool for school and lots to learn

I met so many people, got to have meetings around the place. It’s really cool guys. I mean really cool. It’s much different from working in an old factory loft for an online gaming company.  It’s a big place, a really big place. It’s it’s like a maze filled with new people, news and lots of TV’s. My wrist arthritis  is hurting. Whining. Had to ice it and yes mum I put on the Arnica.  I could use a big box of Aleve or a Tylenol Arthritis sponsorship. I feel like  a Nana. Maybe it’s the rain. I was informed the same rainbow puking unicorn I posted the other day showed up on Postsecret. Was it one of you guys? It wasn’t me. On Friday we had drinks at School bakery & cafe bar in Liberty Village beside the old office. I had been there about a week earlier to meet a friend for lunch. A girl was taking photos  that day and then I showed up in a review of School in the Globe & Mail last week.  Check ‘er out.
