the only blue is the sky above cause we’re covered in sunshine here and here Who leaves those big footprints? I wish I could walk on water. I should go to the island soon. I was thinking I missed the beach and the sunshine so I went to the urban beach, sat in a muskoka chair and felt the sun on my face. I kicked around some snow, found the sand below and even only if for a minute, I was reminded of summer. Did you know there’s actually a formula for ‘why’ today is the ‘ most depressing day of the year‘. Crazy talk. I always thought it was some time in February but maybe that’s high suicide day or something. According to a press release by a mental health charity, the formula is: where weather=W, debt=d, time since Christmas=T, time since failing our new year’s resolutions=Q, low motivational levels=M and the feeling of a need to take action=Na. ‘D’ is not defined in the release, nor are units. DON’T LET THE WINTER GET YOU DOWN EH! Have fun with it. Go exploring But dress warm. Nobody likes a whiner. You never know what you might find.  Hopefully it’s beauty in something 🙂 Hey, Red row boat your cuzzy Red Canoe is my neighbour. You look chilly sitting there. Read this nice article in the Toronto Star that is part of an essay called Lessons Travel Has Taught Me by Arthur Frommer. Thought it was worth sharing with you. It was a nice read, these are the main things travel has taught him: We are all alike. We are responsible for one another. There is no single solution for human problems. All people should be “minorities”. Travel keeps us young. Travel teaches us humility, the best human trait. In…

i love this Starring real life couple Devendra Banhart and Rebecca Schwartz, the premise of the Oliver Peoples 2011 campaign is an exploration of authentic intimacy and sexuality. The love affair is explored in the one-of-a-kind masterpiece by architect John Lautner: Rainbow House. The contemporary California setting proved to be a perfect atmosphere to showcase the natural chemistry of the young, intriguing couple.

You can hardly see the island, the snow has frosted over my entire view. Even if I had a car, I wouldn’t use it today. There’s lots of sirens I hear out there and it appears the cars are moving slower than usual. I have two perfectly good feet who enjoy waking but I doubt they grace a snowy sidewalk before sunset, if at all. I’d like a coffee, but the kitchen seems so far away from my bed. I plan to spend the day here in hopes of kicking these sick and tired feelings. I can’t operate like this, I can’t operate on slow speed. Mum rung me this morning from Bahamas, its like she knew I was missing her. I miss warm and sunshine too. Always the best advice she has “you need rest”.  She’s right. Thanks Mum ♥

Tried on this Liza wig at Raymi’s while she was gettin’ ready. Watcha think? We arrive at The Motion Room about 10ish, I think to myself, what the hell have I gotten myself into here. I’m not much of a worker-outer so I wasn’t sure 1) if I was gonne be any good 2) if I would be into it. However, after my computer crashing last night I figured it would be a good release of the stress I was building up. I had to convince myself that this was a great idea for a chilly Friday morning. This is my let’s go face, haha. Stopped by Cherry Bomb for hipster coffee and who did we see? GINGER JESUS. OMG. But seriously, look. I tried to get a better picture but I was clearly spotted by one of the girls who then proceeded to tell the others what I was doing by making camera taking hang gestures. Clearly I would be a bad papparazzi. The rest of the day will be spent here doing work and admiring how bright the sun shines into my condo and how pretty the water looks right now. The thin layer of ice on the looks so neat, borderline artistic. Tell you all about my workout later after I take care of some biz, Happy Friday 🙂

Sabrina was in NY for a couple days and she brought me back this little special robot guy. So perfect for me. There’s a heart in the other side of the diamonds. Expect to see it in regular rotation. Thanks Beans! I told Sabrina I want to walk to the island when the lake freezes over. She told me that won’t happen and I’m not allowed to anyways. Thanks MOM. I snapped this guy and I’m not even sure what to say about his style and hair. I found it intersting. Fashion district has a pretty mesuring tape on the sidewalk. Had lunch with a friend at Le Gourmand today. I don’t usually share my food but my sandwich was totally delish delish. Chicken curry, yum. Thank goodness for FB, a package was delivered to my old work at CTV and a friend in shipping sent me a wee note. I’m yet to go to the Tim Burton exhibit. Would anyone like to take me? I’m a good date. what’s in the box you ask? One of my darling friends Monika saw I was not feeling better and sent me a whole pack of vitamins from Swiss. A tiny gesture that really brightened my day. Thanks MONIKA! Heading to Blake McGrath’s video shoot uptown right now with my sister. So running behind. Sorry sister. Listening to this to get me up and moving. ROBOT SAYS: STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER. Tomorrow I am going to The Motion Room with Raymi. We’re gonna do challenges and see who’s stronger. She’s got a head start and bigger nuscles I reckon but imma try and make you proud. Ok bye. My sister is gon’ kill me!!!!
