save them. save yourself. you wild thing.

One of my favorite books as a kid was Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. I loved this story. I just found out that mum complained at the library one time about how the book was horrible. Max was punished and sent to bed without dinner for bring mischievous. She had never heard such a story in New Zealand! This thought is quite funny, mum took another read of the story and saw it in a different light from then on. The book is regarded as an American classic in children’s lit and is only ten lines long. How inspiring!!
My sister got me this great shirt for Chrissy this year.
I’m feeling a bit wild today!!

OMG UPDATE: the movie comes out october 16, 2009

so mature

This ecard is for me today.

This year for NYE I will be attending an intimate dinner part with friends in Queen West. Contrary to popular belief, I am NOT going out for a raging good time as I have been known to do. I have no desire to attend a crazy, busy, mishmash party OR after party.

I reckon it’s one of two things:
1. I’m so mature that I am content spending a night surrounded by awesome people I call my friends.
2. I’ve partied so hard over the past 10 years that there is nothing happening that I haven’t already done before.

I like to wake up on the first day of the new year feeling positive about where I hope the year is going to take me rather than wanting to kill myself from all the substance abuse the previous night.

vintage stuff: smoking cartons

These drawings are from 2006 the year I started by blog. I looked at this one today, it’s one of my favorites. Roxy and I used to draw cartoons all the time at work. Thank god we have both moved onto things we like much more than our old jobs.

it’s chalottage time again!!

If you are unaware of what a Chalottage is, you can find it in the Urban Dictionary defined by yours truly. I’m looking forward to a few trips out of the city in the new year to relax at the chalottage. Last winter we had a total blast heading up north and we had even more fun once we got there!
Chalottage
A place you go in the winter because it’s near a ski resort, ski hill or some type of winter activity AND a place you go in the summer because it is near water or for summer relaxing. part Chalet part Cottage, Chalottage.
Winter: Lets go to the Chalottage for skiing this weekend!
Summer: Lets go to the Chalottage and go to the beach this weekend!

Ex. Collingwood, ON: Ski at Blue Mountain & sun, sand, surf at Wasaga Beach.
