leather latex cotton rubber nylon fur & a smile

Oh hey there blog,  Happy Wednesday! Feeling good.  Had a great sleep. Didn’t have clothes so made an outfit of his shirt and a little latex belt with my tights and wellies. Yeah, stylish improvisation I tell ya. All I need is my shirt to have some PVC trim and I’m set with all the kinky fabrics! Ha.

One of my Tweets from @mtvcanada making fun of Norway made the Toronto Sun today. Tee hee. We totally spanked them last night in the hockey. Have a little chitty chat with someone from the Metro today, you’ll read about it soon enough.

Last night I got my leather outfit for Northbound’s 20th Anniversary party on Sat. So excited. Gonna do some serious blogging this weekend. Last weekend I was so exhausted all I wanted to do was sleep, so I did. Might hit up podCamp too. Ah, there’s always something to do.

The now was pretty this morning but I’m really looking forward to Summer. Saw these guys on my way in … haha

i kissed a gold medal and i liked it

Way to go Canada I’m proud of you. Lets hope we kick some more ass and up that medal count. I wore one of Jeff’s gold medals on Valentines Day in celebration. Pretty hot. Quite surprised I’m was the ONLY girl who ever asked, aha Go Team Casie!

I’m watching CTV Olympics all day at work. Been thinking I might merge the Tummbr/Posterous and this blog together. Thoughts? Been really really tired the last couple days & my arthritis arm has been pissing me off too. God, I sound like such a downer, sorry. Hope you have a great day.

BTW, did you know it was three years ago today that dear Britbrit shaved her head? Wow.

hot nerd takeover

OFFICIAL impact of  #haihaiTO event: $22,030! #HaiHaiTO + #GenYTO = AWESOME!

Party was stellar.Tons of people were there, if you weren’t… be sad for a second then make sure you come to the next one!

I was busy selling raffle tix and didn’t bring camera so good thing Sophie got pix. I also find the Flash on my new Motorola Droid isn’t that bright anyways. BTW, I’ve got a reputation for selling mad tickets and I lived up to it big time. Hire me for your next party! haha

Skip to :40 in this video where the guy come off the stage and dances with me. I’m ok with it until he dances UP ON ME. I felt his “you know what” rub on me and all of a sudden I was MAD embarrassed.

SO many cool peeps and so much fun. We danced our asses off like it was a highschool dance. It was amazing. I met a heap of peeps IRL (in real life) that I only knew from Twitter. So good to put the actual person to the face/name/voice.

Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a success. Will letcha know when the next GenyTO is.

hope. aspirations. dreams. goals. canada.

Keri, my friend & hot blog babe a.k.a The Canadian Explorer is leaving for the Olympics today.  A couple months ago Keri said “man, I gotta get to the Olympics, what kind of Canadian Explorer am I if I don’t get there?”.  She was focused and determined to get there and to get some sponsors behind her while she’s at it.  I told her she could do it and I had not one ounce of doubt she would.

She’s reporting from Whistler as an official correspondent for Canoe.ca & Sun Media and she’s totally decked out in Canada Goose gear.

Proof you can do it if you put your mind into it.  Go Keri & Go Canada!!

I’m not that excited about watching sports, I’m more excited to watch the commentary online, Twitpics from the games and to read Keri’s daily reports. I’m way more into the Internet than sports.

this is what it’s really about lovers

Last year on Valentines I woke up early and went for a walk an saw these posted on Queen Street  where the fire was just east of Bathurst.  By the time I went back a few hours later, they were gone. Love that kinda stuff.

“If you’re thinking that Valentine’s Day should be about anything other than eating chocolate and buying yourself fancy lingerie, you have clearly been misinformed. It’s about love, yeah, but not real love. It’s the silly, self-indulgent, guilty pleasure kind.”

[no great illusion]


party with TO’s coolest peeps? obviously.

I’m inviting you to come out and party with me and a whole slew of TO’s coolest, nerdiest, smartest and best looking people who love social media being social.  This is the Feb. 2010 edition of #GenyTO and we’ve partnered with #HoHOTO to form #haihaiTO. Gosh darnit, just saying that sounds fun! Lots of people are chatting about it, look right here for proof.

We’re donating proceeds to those poor folks in Haiti. You think the snow here is bad? HA! Imagine your whole house and life in rubble with no place to go. Ya, doesn’t seem so cold out now does it?

HaiHaiTO is TOMORROW, Thursday, February 11 starting at 7 p.m. at the Courthouse, 57 Adelaide Street East. Lets have a fun night and do some good while we’re at it. I’ll be there early, like 7ish. If you’re not in TO but wanna be, buy a ticket just for fun because giving feels so good inside.

Get your tickets here and NOW!

I read about Google launching Social Stream today which is awesome cause I’m a huge lover and user of Google products. It’s also amazing because a Motorola Milestone’s gonna arrive at my desk today.

I recently made BFF’s with Telus and when my girl there heard about me losing the phone she took care of the situation right away. Yes, I’m a very lucky girl. This things is like a mini Google computer and I’m stoked.

It runs on Android 2.0 and has a 5MP camera and a flash (important features for me). The screen is huge and I’ve heard it’s kinda heavy, I like heavy. It doesn’t come out for Telus customers until March, you’re hearing it first here Canada.

I remind myself all the time not to let things I can’t control get me down. This, once again is a lesson that good things will come if you stay positive.

a day when you dont feel like internetting

sitting in bed, watching jeopardy, comfy. wrapped in your hoodie,  it feels nice around my shoulders, big and warm.

one of those days when you feel up and down and anxiety, happiness sad… it has nothing to do with being a girl,  or that you’re stupid, it’s just becasue you are human and there are lots of outside forces coming at you. some things you control, some you don’t. you work with computers and the internet and it moves so fast that some days you just arent at top speed. even though you try, you try but you fail.  then you hasgtag it as #fail and somehow that makes you feel better, so do the @replies from your friends. i dont have a phone so i sit and talk to my computer because my blog always listens. it never talks back and it keeps your secrets you don’t share but want to.  it listens and without even saying anything and often is more helpful than a friend. it’s a place you just let it out and then after, you feel better.  a blog is a best friend you find within yourself, and it’s cheaper than therapy. sometimes i don’t feel like internetting, but that usually means i’m just tired.

things like this make it not seem so bad

Surprise write up about me & social media in a Geek Girl feature from Two Geeks and a BlogBob who wrote it said “Holy cow!  Casie Stewart may be a Jedi!” and quoted Star Wars. He also quoted “a blog is an engine” which was really nice because I like that one and it didn’t even get any comments.

Found these today too. Didn’t know they existed, Search Stories from Google. This is called Newbie, it’s a grandma embracing technology.

Oh Google, always warming my heart. You know just how to talk nerdy to me. You press all the right buttons.

I’ve decided not to be so upset about my stuff, shit happens.  No sense wasting time feeling sorry for myself. I’ll get it sorted this week and you never know, it just might turn up. 

a totally brutal situation.

The most fun part of the night was getting dressed, the anticipation and being surrounded by friends. The girls have good photos, I’ve only got twitpics. The worst part was how packed it was, and all the things that went missing, oh just the fact that the Jersey Shore crew arrived at midnight only to spend the whole night downstairs. Pauly D was actually DJing at Suite 106.

Our both was barely a booth at all. It was a small table stacked with Smirnoff and plastic cups.

The place is dirty and you can smoke inside. People were standing on our seats and pushing. I’ve not gone to a club like that in the club district like that since I was like 19 (probably the average age their last night). So brutal.

I can only imagine what the lives of the Situation & Pauly D are like cause there were SO MANY girls there and if you read my tweets, they were slutty. There’s nothing wrong with that by the way, encouraged if anything.

The most brutal part is someone stole my beloved reversible Betty Kiss clutch containing my Telus Blackberry, keys, license, debit, cash, vintage scarf and my coatcheck ticket for my red wool blazer. Yes, brutal. But I wasn’t the only one, Natalie’s phone got snatched too and Carly never got her jacket back. I went by there today, called & emailed with hopes that I might get something back. I hate losing stuff. I had my phone in my hand practically the whole night, then in one second it was gone.

The whole place is just brutal, lots of bouncers, assholes on a power trip. I hate those people.

I’m never going there again. I’m shamed to have gone there in the first place. I hate not having my phone. Urgh, brutal.
