I don’t really like to play. Not like that. It was fun for a little bit. I’m glad I tried it, but I’m not really into that type of display. Breanna and I did it together today…
It’s fun dressing up. I like wearing masks and makeup. I also like getting scared, the waiting, the strangers. Think it’s more fun when you’re drunk. If you feel sexy you can really show off without getting busted.
I’ve got two pairs this week. You know I love my wellies and honestly, for a Canadian girl in the winter, they trump them by like 10,000 x. They’re from Australia, they tweet, and they’re into ‘adventures in lifestyle’. Marino sheepskin, rubber outside, totally warm when wet.
We’re now in committed 3-way a relationship.
You can get them at Get Outside. You want a pair? I’ll give you some!
Twitter contest: Sign in with Twitter & comment this post with #mooovboot. I’m gonna pick a winner and this is what you get….
I ask and bat my eyelashes even though I’m home blogging & tweeting in tights and a snuggy.
…. talk nerdy to me…
Responds with full name…which leads to a T.G.I.F. search, twitter, google, internet, facebook. I’m the the jerk cause I don’t do it right after popping the question,. Only mildly curious anyways but mostly easily distracted and doing my own thing.
First, search.twitter.com. No results, uses a branded twitter name so makes sense. Second engine, Google search, first result linkedin followed by FB and a couple other things. Third, Internet search, browsing any other site other than Twitter, Google or Facebook. I check linkedin, history of pretty good jobs, nothing crazy and very professional. This is a good thing.
Last check is FB, we’ve got about a dozen common friends. I know this social circle. Friendship requested. The internet makes the world a small place. With just a name you can learn so much.
This week I read a tweet that said if someone is not found on Google or FB, they’re probably a serial killer. Exaggerated yes, (I hope) but really now, someone with NO DIGITAL footprint at all? Makes me wonder if we could ever be friends.
Wanna come? You can try & RSVP. I heard Drake is gonna be there as well as all kinds of other sporty types. I won’t know who’s who cause I never watch sports but that makes it even more fun. Hazaaa! Have a good day, Happy THURSDAY!
This article was in the Toronto Metro yesterday & written by Rea McNamara. If you click on it you can read it easier (Mum/Dad/friends). I’ve worked really hard the last couple years on this whole social media thing. SO MANY late nights at home alone with my computer, fiddling around with blog posts, learning HTML, installing/fixing wordpress plugins, editing photos and more. I’ve got over 21,000 tweets for christs sake, that’s a big time investment right there.
Building a brand online takes work, it takes work every single day whether you are building it for personal or business use. You just gotta stick at it. One of the best things I learned from my Mum is “just because you don’t have money, doesn’t mean you can’t compete, it just means you have to be more creative“. Creativity & determination don’t cost anything, yet they have gotten me further than anything else. All the social media sites I use are FREE. I use them often and yes, it takes up lots of my time but THAT has been my investment. It’s also how I got one of the coolest jobs ever.
Thank you for the feedback & positive comments. I love hearing from you. Got some great messages from people lately that inspire me to stick at it when sometimes I don’t feel like internetting.
April 27th is my blog’s birthday and I think it deserves a party.
Last Thursday, I was one of about 100 people chosen to attend an exclusive event hosted by Notable TV. Good fun, great food, cool crowd, babes. Can’t ask for much more than that. You know these blog stars, Sean Ward & Carly.
Blonde blogging babes, Carly, Lysnie, Casie, sounds so cute to me. I love Carly’s pink/blonde and Lynsie’s grey/blonde style. I’ve been thinking about grey with orange or pink or peach. Have never had orange/grey before, not on purpose at least.
My hand looks really large to me here for some reason. I have small little hands like kid size . I’m never posing with my glass like that ever again. Take note.
Papapparazzi on these boys! If you come to this part, you will get your picture taken/be on camera. There is no way to avoid it unless you wear a mask.
We were at Annex Loft Houses, Bathurst/Dupont and the night was called Nuit D’azure. The Loft House site plays automatic music when you go to it so I am not linking to it, pissed off at them for that. I will also never buy a condo from them based on that single first impression in the 0.3 seconds it took the site to load.
The crowd was fun and included all kinds of familiar faces to me. Sean Ward made this vid. I’m so freaking happy Sean and Carly had their cameras, I went back and redid this whole post. Makes a better loooking blog, my Milestone photos were subpar compared to power of a real camera.
Catering by The Food Dudes, mme tell you, them boys make some tasty treats. Braised lamb with goat cheese on a little crostini and beet bruschetta, amazing.
I’ve been attending Notable events since Julian Brass launched around this time last year. If you get invited, go, they’re fun. I prefer the smaller ones but attend a big guy once in a while if it’s something special. Last year Notable they named me, Sean & Raymi the city’s top bloggers.
Set a goal this week to take more photos. Found my camera charger and now I’ve got two batteries and no excuses not to use it.
Lets play show & tell…
This old Mason jar contains vintage buttons. Mum had them in the basement and it smells vintage when you open it. (you said I could take it Mum) This part of the book shelf has sex related books that never get looked at.
Also in Mum’s basement are about 10,000 McDonalds Happy Meal toys. We obsessively collected them when I was growing up and heaps of them are still in their packages. We would go to Mc Donalds just to get the toys if they were barbie, beanie babies or something cool. I still do it. Last year they had Hello Kitty and Barbie and I tried to get them all.
I’m putting this here as a reminder to myself (and you) to not stress this week. I hate stressing. It pisses me off. I prefer to be relaxed and happy. Don’t you?
Shoe accessories! Fuckyeahamazing. They’re called shoellery and these babies are perfect for making (cheap ass) shoes look more expensive and super stylish.
They’re pretty badass so I was stoked when they hooked me up. Dragon’s Den & Jeanne Beker love them too. There’s so many different ones like sparkly shoe straps, boot sleeves, leg warmers. Tey’re designed in Italy & this chain one is my fav. SO hot.
They range from $20 to about $125 and you can buy them online. Sending the suede/rhinestone one out to a friend & keeping the leather one as seen on Barbie at a fetish party. Now, I’d really love if someone sent me shoes to go with them! Mohahaaaaaaaaa!
That’s my sis, the blonde with the photoshopped long hair. Billboard is in Dundas Square above Forever 21. Smile at her when you see it. Last night my skirt zipper broke getting out of the cab as we arrived at the Northbound party. It was brand new, leather & tailored. I was upset but then everyone said “just take it off”. So I did. Then made it into a cape. I was wearing fishnets and a leather corset. It was awesome. That’s all for now. I’m going back to bed for a napski. Looking forward to the pix coming in just as much as you are. tee hee 😉
Interesting enough, found her self-shot nude in a Google of “red hair wheelchair“. She found a chair on the way home from a party and was gonna use it for something artistic. Her name is Zoetica Ebb and she has the best blog I’ve seen.
I like her. I think she’s about the same age, lives in LA, Coilhouse along with Meredith Yayanos and Nadya Lev, a magazine of alternative subculture. She blogs and takes photos. I added endless scrolling to my blog inspired by her blog. You can scroll endlessly for years never having to click ‘next page’.
She also has short hair, is kinda crazy maybe, artistic, tattoos, blogger, takes pretty photos. Ah, so many great photo ideas. I need to be using my camera more.
Found one girl who traveled through China and one girl who said her chair is a crazy person magnet . Was actually looking for a this guy.
She has cool style and blue hair. Remember when I had cool hair during Pride, it was pink and hot? We had fun that weekend. It was crazy, but fun.
i can’t write today,
something’s wrong.
i can’t smile today,
life is a sad song.
my heart hurts…
so does my foot
in my shoe.
today is a sad day,
without you.
I wrote this poem when I was 14 many moons ago. It was published in an anthology called Jeans, I was co-author. I love picking up our book and reading things I wrote back then. Amazes me how they’re relevant and somehow connected to this future version of me. I never really thought about putting out a second edition but today I did. There is nothing stopping me but myself. I love writing and have written heaps and heaps of poems, hundreds in fact. I don’t know or really care if anyone even buys the book. I wanna write it (put it together) to show myself I can. I know I can. I can.
