live your life as it’s meant to be

First day for a while it’s not been sunny out. I find myself to be very productive on these days. Dive right into my computer!

This song is a good motivator.

I’m on the edge of glory, I’m on the edge! I wanna do the EDGE WALK on the CN Tower.

Hair is back to a nice blonde. I really wanna grow it out this winter. It’s a mega process. Had it short for so long now. If I focus I can do it. I mean, make it through the awkward stages! Got any tips? Luckily I love wearing hats.

Really loving new desk setup. Mac things are so pretty. My Dodo Case for iPad is totally busted. Basically a scrap of bamboo. I really need to EM them about that. Got a new Motorola DEFY yesterday adn I’m happily back on the Telus Mobile Network.

Doing a photo shoot tonight with Lauren, Raymi, Anna and some babes for PinkMafia. Had a wicked sleep last ngiht so hopefully I don’t look tired! Off to a camera shop & hopefully will have some good news about  new project by end of day.

Make it a great one 🙂

* Loving Spotify and title is from Mumford & Sons ‘The Cave’. So good.

 

 

 

If I get to meet Ellen, what should I ask her!?

You know when you have an idea, something you’ve always wanted to do?  You focus on it, you think about it and you imagine how it will feel when you reach that moment.

I’ve got one of those moments coming up.

I’m attending the Power of Women event in Toronto and one of my most favourite women in the world is going to be there, Ellen DeGeneres!

The Toronto event is August 11th and I’ll be backstage VIP with the opportunity to connect with speakers and guests. I’m hosting a live blog on event day and tweeting from my own account as well as @POWlive.

I’m stoked! You know how much I love connecting with inspiring people! Past speakers include Sigourney Weaver, Joy Behar, Hilary Swank, Martha Stewart and heaps of other fabulous women.

couple interesting things happened yesterday on twitter

this is how you get driving muscles

Remember my comic about driving muscles? This is how I got them! Vrooooooom!

The Cover of Rolling Stone, Sheepdogs & Beerfest

Woo hoo! Canadian bearded babe rockers won the cover of Rolling Stone contest. 

I’ve not heard heaps of their music but I like their beards and attitudes from what I’ve seen/read.

“We’ve been working hard for a long time,” said the band’s grateful frontman Ewan Currie. “We’re doing our best to stay humble and hard-working, we feel very blessed. All we needed was the attention.” Globe

“The music industry has changed so much that there’s no set way of proceeding,” Currie said. “There’s not a formula you follow, like for other careers. You have to sort of jump on any opportunity that comes along and this has been a godsend for us.” Globe

“”Good-time rockers The Sheepdogs are proud, bearded rock revivalists, with a whole manner of beards, ‘burns and ‘staches on display over the years. This may help bearded rock ‘n’ roll roll make its return to the cover of Rolling Stone.” CTV

“Rock and Rollers from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Specializing in melody, harmony, guitar solos and general feel-goodery. Twitter

They made this video to get people voting. I like their style.

We may not kill it in sports but we surely are kicking’ it in musicThis video of them getting the news from Rolling Stone about winning is pretty good too.

This weekend (Sunday) they are playing Beerfest. Everyone can go! Using coupon code ‘CASIE‘ saves you $5 on tickets. Get a ticket here. Will most likely sell out before Sunday.

Full band lineup is here.  Our Digital Lounge has seating, wifi, power and lite snacks. <3

Matt Wells had some good Tweets & pix about them in NYC yesterday.  Love seeing Canada kicking a$$ in awesomeness.

Good writeup about them in the Globe which included this B&Wphoto. Glad I’m seeing them Sunday so I can decide IRL about the music. I love that look, beard & hair like Jesus.

If you’re going Sunday LMK! Have an awesome day 🙂 Happy Monday Tuesday!

The Blondetourage Does Baseball

Yesterday was an epic day for a ball game. O’Nizz, Keri, the boys and I were invited to hang out with our friends from Keek.com for Roberto Alomar Hall of Fame Day. It was awesome! Check out our box!

Roberto Alomar was my fav player as a kid. I loved being there to watch the Jays retire his number and hear him speak. You are legend!

Where’s Waldo? Can you see him? Two mounties walking behind.

I had a huge crush on him when I was little. Remember how much of a babe he was?  Swoon.

He’s still pretty good looking TBH. I was fan girl crushing pretty hard.

The entire stadium was PACKED. I heard the game was sold out! Whoa.

His speech was very kind. My fav thing that he said was something his Mum always told him “be humble”.

We had a ‘gay ol’ time’ singing “Take me out to the ball game”.

I can only imagine how hot it would be to sit in the sun for the whole game. I didn’t see any umbrellas, are they even allowed? Probably not eh. Remind me to bring a huge hat if I ever sit down there.

Hey there sports fans: Seany, Sammy, Ross.

I can see my house!

Two studs right here.

Home run!

It was Ross’ birthday. I can’t remember if we say HBD but we sure celebrated good!

I’ve totally fallen in love with my new camera, Olympus Pen, you rule.

This guy had two nipple piercings and a belly button. WOW!

Miranda and I tried our hardest to get him to look up. HEY YOU!

This is Roger,he’s the MAN. Thanks for the invite team. We <3 you 🙂

bikes, babes, beach.

Got a lotta crooks tryna steal your heart…

Loving this track. Thank you Spotify for recommending new songs I didn’t know. People in Canada be hatin’ that I have a Spotify account but TBH, I don’t care what you say. I LOVE Spotify!

We biked to the beach yesterday. It was SUCH a beautiful for a ride to the East.

Was totally packed. Surprised by how many peeps were in the water. It’s safe I hear. I jus’ dipped in to cool off. Sun was real warm.

This dog had the hugest balls ever. It was shocking.

Fo’ reals. Not even joking.

Took James Dean with me but my Wind stick didn’t feel like working so we were offline. Phone was dead too which was interesting because I was 100% no communicato. I had great company and it was nice to take a tech break. I usually find it harder and start scratching or something. Haha.

Today I’m hitting up the Jays game with Keri, Lauren & some peeps. Blondetourage does sporting events too 🙂

Have an awesome day! Still one more day of long weekend. Make the most of it! Next update from a box at the Rogers Centre/Sky Dome.

<3 CASIE
