something she said about the vigilantes
I was up late, I should have been packing but… internet, I keep working on stuff and Tweeting, which is work. I watched the Jimmy Fallon show after I saw someone say on Twitter that Johnny Depp looked like an idiot and guess what? Ra Ra Riot were on and I remember seeing them recently, but I don’t remmeber when. Does anyone out there remember when it was?
I feel like Carrie Bradshaw right now because I was sitting there writing all day. I didn’t think I left the house but I just remembered I did go across the street to get a salad. Excited I’m gonna be in Boston tomorrow and then in the sun for a few days. My body feels tired and so does my mind. I’m so ready to shut off my computer and leave it at home.
Still taking iPad though! It’s so good at the airport/on a plane.
Enjoy the day!

GIFTING DAY 1: Givenchy Hot Couture Giftset
For the past couple years I’ve been giving away holiday giftsets from Parfums Givenchy. This year, we have more than ever! I’ve got three scenteriffic packages to give away over the next few days.
I first posted about Givenchy Hot Couture September 2008 when I recieved a bottle. I love this smell. Sadly, mine took a fall on the bathroom floor and I lost it all (wahhhh). Hot Couture for a woman that is stylish, glamourous, and a true trendsetter. It’s kinda fruity with notes of raspberry, magnolia and amber-vetiver. The giftset contains 50ml EDT spray, 7.5ml EDT travel roll-on, 75ml body lotion. It is valued at $80.
You want it? Log into the commenting below with Twitter, Facebook or DISQUS and let your voice be heard. Contest is open to anyone in North America but does NOT include shipping. (Sorry!)
Tomorrow’s gift is a Rightsleve Market Tote + 1colour/1 location t-shirt. Have an awesome day 🙂
down with the sickness: part two #throat
I could feel it coming on last night and should have done this before bed. It’s ok, one day of Mum’s remedies and I’ll be all better.
Have a sore throat? Want it to GTFO of your life? Here’s watcha do. (Mum, GTFO = get the fuck out)
Get some ground sage and 2 large mugs
Boil the kettle
Put sage in mug, pour water over
Let sit until sage sinks to bottom and it cools down
Strain tea into another mug leaving sage in mug 1
Make sure it’s not too hot
Go gargle with it
Repeat all day
Feel better
Mum had us do this as kids and because of it we hardly ever missed school (thanks Mum!). BTW Sage will also soothe hurting gums, cankers, irritated larynx and vocal cords.
While you’re in the kitchen boiling that kettle, throw some fresh ginger in a mug and drink it.
Down With the Sickness Part 1 is for common cold. It’s instructions on how to Thyme Bath your way to healthy. See that post right here!

“you’re famous”
Last week in Dallas I had the pleasure of meeting Xeni (aka Madam Boing) from Boing Boing and it seems I have lots of friends that read it. I’ve gotten texts, FB messages, emails and Tweets about the following article. Thought I better share it with the rest of ya. Check it out!
Virgin America, the airline that carries Boing Boing Video as an in-flight TV channel, launched service from Los Angeles to Dallas-Forth Worth, Texas this week. I joined other press for the inaugural flight, to live-tweet snapshots of the festivities. This included a bunch of cowboys and longhorn steer right on the tarmac at landing, and later, a “secret” performance by Willie Nelson with impromptu on-stage hoedown involving Sir Richard Branson and gorgeous flight attendants.

i took a bite of fashion toast.
On Twitter yesterday I saw famed LA fashion blogger Rumi Neely posted a NZFW photo diary. What did I find?
A pic of me, Rumi and Gala Gonzalez from the Nom D party at NZFW. That night was so fun, we climbed on the car and were posing for photographers. If you don’t know Rumi or Gala, you must be living under a fashion rock.
I have a crush on Gala, she’s from the UK and just lovely. Her blog is inside am-lul’s closet and Rumi’s blog is fashion toast.
Hopefully I get back to NZ again next year for FW. I’d love to get to a few other countries too! I got a glimpse of ‘the life’… I had a driver, an assistant, and was ushered to front row for every show and always posing for photos. Lets hope for more of that in my future!

building the snowman of my dreams
I love waking up to snow on the ground. It looks so pretty outside. Inspired me to get out of the house and venture to a coffee shop around the corner and soak up some scenery. I’ve got lots to get done today and tomorrow. I’ve never taken a week vacation from my blog. I wonder if I can even do it?
It’s like my child and we’ve never really been apart. “Mommy’s going on vacation honey. No no, it’s ok, you will still be online, I have scheduled daily content feedings for you ok. I’ll check in on you when I can my sweet”. The joy of having a blog and talking to myself if so amusing. Don’t you think? Yeah, yeah I do. Oh, I chuckle to myself.
They’re playing christmas music but I’ve got my earphones in anyways. Helps me concentrate. Look at that tower, man I love this cit. Happy Monday!
Bag: Nella Bella
Ear muffs: 180s
Scarf: Me to We

I like to think of myself as a one man wolf pack.
Pretty excited for this week. Monday night I’m hosting a benefit concert at Supermarket in Kensington. The show is raising money for Kids Help Phone. If you’re around, come. Details below.
Tuesday is my last day home before I go on vacation. I’m gonna *try and digital detox. I’ve only missed ONE day of internetting over the past year (see Bud Camp 2010) and I feel like taking a break. Wow, really feels good to say type that.
I’ve partnered with some peeps to do some holiday gift giving while I’m away. One day I will go Oprah style and give you all my favourite things. I’m also planning to look back at things from the past year, reflect.
Having a blog is a great way to remember the stuff you do. I forget all kinds of things, so it’s quite fun to look back. My blog header used to say “people, places, things, thoughts, in attempt to keep more memories.” Looking back is a great way to think about the future and what I want to achieve in the new year.
Wednesday evening I fly to Boston to meet my friends. Thursday we fly to San Juan, Puerto Rico for a week in the sun.
I’m really looking forward to that very moment when my feet hit the sand and the sun is on my face!
WHY WHY is tumblr not back up yet 🙁 Omg, omg. Wahhh.
Two hours and counting and the blogging platform is still down. Whatever are we to do without The Daily What and all those other delightful blogs?
According to The Next Web and CenterNetworks, Tumblr has been down for two hours now, causing a lot of derision among folks on Twitter.
