streetcar stories: day four, two thousand eleven

image

On streetcar for the first time in ages. I love the style and energy of this city. It’s so vibrant despite being winter. Its not really even that cold. Went three blocks and saw two friends. Made a hot tub date for this eveing with a babe too.

It feels good to be out of the house and back in the city I love.

My streetcar just went past that burlesque girl I met in Montreal. I need to contact her!

I’m off to a meeting now then meeting friends and back home in time for my show.

Life is good. Hope you are enjoying the day. 🙂

attention: wearing pants is highly unacceptable.

you did it HOW MANY times? WHOA.

I first joined twittter on May 5th, 2008. At that time I was working for an online casino company doing project management. I liked my job and was blogging daily. Near the end of 2008 I was really into Twitter despite not knowing THAT many people into it. I had under 500 followers and the Toronto community was very small compared to what it is now.

Since then, my life has been enriched with HEAPS of wonderful people and experiences. I’m looking forward to the next 45,000 AND when I hit 100,000 tweets. OMFG that will be AMAZING.

Cheers to Twitter and my 45,000 milestone!

One of my followers @MCIbites introduced me to this video made with 45,000 still images. Pretty neat.

Fat City Reprise – Long Gone from Cesar Kuriyama

In other news, there’s this new thinger called Facto.Me and Mashable said it’s kinda addicting so naturally, I tried it. Well, it is quite amusing. See facts about me here. Some thing you might now know like “The ring on my finger is based on a personality theory.”

ringin’ it in style: december 31, 2010 #INQNYE

ahem, pardon me, what’s that? oh,  cock & balls bull.

back to the hotel to get ready for the evening

our chariot for the night was a massive limo disco bus (like the ones 905’ers get to come downtown!)

we had a massive area for our crew at this club calle BAINS DOUCHES. haha. these hot ladies danced sexy burlesque for us. rrrrrarrrrrrr. one of the girls is from TO and would like me to come to her class. i like this idea.

HAPY NEW YEAR! 2011 OMG!

this giant 6’5″ 19 year old may have kissed me at midnight

we had a photographer so i didn’t take many photos of our party

i came back from the club earlier than the rest and made use of our awesomely huge tub

our suite was pretty awesome, well except that it was 911. bad sign, gah 9/11?  bathroom is behind blue curtain.

had a great sleep, woke up and hung out with myself around the hotel lobby

looked at the beautiful & modern art displayed by an artiste named TONE

then i went to the Away Spa @ W Montreal for a massage and a lovely breakfast

post brekky i met up with the rest of the crew and prepared for departure…

and finally… I share this with you beacause it is pretty freaking AWESOME. Posted details on tumblr.

fun with @facebook, look what did…

It’s not as easy as you think. I drew the images on iPad then uploaded to FB. They had to be cropped and edited etc., took a bit longer than I thought but was good practie.There’s some real creative ones on Techcrunch and Mashable.

c’est où la partie commence

our NYE adventure started out with a lovely lunch breifing at Mercatto in TO. andrew & monoka gave us all the deets incuding fancy dinners, clubs, limo rides, shopping, plus hair & spa appointments.

post lunch we hopped into cabs to the island airport and caught a 4:30 on Porter to MTL

by the time we left the plane was full and were were so loud and excited. i’m sure everyone hated us.

a limo picked us up and from P.E. Trudeau airport & took us to our new home, the W Montreal

i was in love with the art they have displayed right now. reminded me of a fine toronto artist, HINTO.

yesterday on twitter, this happened:

if you are looking for a good movie to watch

Watch this:

I watched it last night as I had a lovely bath in my suite at the W Montreal. It really got me thinking about sharing of content online. Living in public. It opened a few windows in my mind that lead to doors with ideas behind them. I’ve got lots to share with you this year my friends.

Happy New Year!

We’re having a five course dinner. There’s twenty of us. The food is just divine. We arrived in a huge disco limo bus with a bar in it.

I packed a confetti popper in my purse for later! Hazaaaaa!

Happy New Year friends!
