The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.

Today was a weird kinda day, well it has been so far. I slept in, woke up with a hurting back and felt like I was hit by a truck. I even went to bed early last night, so totally strange. Just drained I guess. Didn’t last long though, I was energized by Lucia when we shared lunch at BQM on Queen Street. That’s our spot. Came home, did some business and scooting out to a last minute consulting appointment. Looking forward to GenYTO tomorrow. Gonna be a fun time. Last night at the Gap Inc. online shopping launch they gave us each a $100 Visa card to use in the online store. I totally used it last night, this is what I got. Pretty excited for new Fall clothes to arrive at my door. Thanks Gap Inc PR! Lets do that again! Giving people gift cards to actually TRY out the online shopping expereince is a great idea. I probably would have not tried it otherwise. The experience was pretty good, stress free and the interface was nice/easy to use . Go outside. It’s lovely out there. Won’t belong till these hot hot days go far away! xo

TweetgasmTO V1.2 with lazers and stuff yo.

Was home at a decent hour after Tweetgasm last night. Thanks for everyone who came out.  There was a neat art display in room 212 upstairs and Lynsie and some friends played with lazers!! We tried like crazy to make hearts, this one is the best we got. Good thing she is a photographer and knows how to work a camera. I would have never figured out how to make fancy light show photos. I know now! Yay. The mural in the little Twitter room was pretty rad too. Next Tweetgasm is late September, stay tuned for that. Quite looking forward to GenYTO on Thursday, over 235 people confirmed! New faces and old friends will make for a great time. I’m heading to Andrew Richard Designs shortly, Gap Inc. is having a launch party for their new online shopping site. Kinda crazy they didn’t have online shopping in Canada till now eh? Laughing photos are my most fav. Enjoy the day! Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

kiss me like that in your fall attire please

Feeling some serious arthrisis today. Ankle and arm wrapped in castor oil compress. Mum would be proud. She’s still sailing away to Bahamas, they won’t get there until some time near winter. Feels like Fall today, air is cooler, sun is hiding. Summer is deff over. I’ve got a stay in bed all day kinda feeling but I can’t do that, I’ve got work to do. Feeling a bit overwhelmed. Need to send more info to NZFW for my visit. I can’t believe I am going to NZ.  Send stats to Wakestock too. This next year is gong to be really exciting. I hope to get to Europe and/or Asia (just throwin it out there). Haven’t seen my sis lately. Have an event tomorow night at Andrew Richard Designs to see the new stuff from Gap and the launch of online shopping. Happy to be making friends with Gap Inc., my first job was at a Gap store in 1996. I’m in love with Fall fashion and can’t wait to rock tights and jackets again. Boots, I miss wearing boots. I hardly wore open toes this summer, I’m just not that into it. Looks like we’re gonna have a big crowd at Gladstone for TweetgasmTO tonight. GenyTO Thursday will be good too. Love that we’re getting more people out to meet & greet each other. Listening to Yacht today, good band and chill for working.  I need hocus focus please. Go go gadget focus. Enjoy the day. You are the youngest today you will ever be. Don’t ever forget that 🙂 See you tonight.

hardly no service for two days + didn’t internet

But it was fun. Seeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! Exhausted from a whole day on the bus with the Bud gurlz. Sweet thangs they are. (HIIIIII to you if you are reading girls!)  Everyone was super nice and fun especially the security and event staff. One employee girl was bit snooty but I reckon it’s because I got an outfit and didn’t wear it. Yay me! I’m wearing it NOW as I BLOG. 🙂 Overall, we had a fun time. The food was pretty good too. Nice getting there before all the boys arrived on Friday. There were so many boys. About 150 winners each with a plus 1.  Watching them get off the bus and come down the gaultlet past the girls was charming. I missed the internet but not as much as I thought. Wilderness was pretty nice. Fresh air, stars, woodchips and fire. We stayed offsite at a house with full bathroom and tv which was great. Freaked out over chipmunks. I though I liked them, but no. They are cute from far but far from cute. Rascals, all nut eating and scurrying and stuff. They  need to have mobile charging stations at these type of things. The cabin stayers had no outlets. None!! I hardly had phone service and couldn’t checkin on foursquare.  Wahhhh. Chatted a dude about getting the mayorship but my phone was not playing nice so he got it. Learned for about $5,000 per carrier you can get a temp tower put up. That would be badass, wifi for everyone. WordPress mobile, twitter, facebook and posting via email to tumblr FTW. Talk nerdy to me. Lots happening this week, looking forward to it.  Tweetgasm at the Gladstone Melody Bar Monday night and GenYTO Thursday at the Tap House. Also The Virgin contest is over in 9 days…

i love this city.

Rannie took this beautiful photo from our balcony before out shoot yesterday. We took photos for the Vitamin Water Canada blog and in his 140 project. Stay tuned for that. Good day yesterday mostly around the house working on a couple upcoming projects. Went for an evening stroll with Sabrina to Bellwoods and visited a friends roof patio for some wine and sunset. Stopped by CTS on the way, my fav shop. They had a bunch of items that were $1 and I picked up a couple vintage dresses I can totally do a Pretty in Pink switch to. I’m giving Zoey (my sewing machine) a workout this winter. Heading to the Fairlie Agency for a little co-working woith Carly-Anne today. Haircut at 4 with Darren, think I’m gonna buzz it one last time for summer. Dinner with Jeremy and some friends tonight, we finally all get to meet his crush. Loser karaoke after that but I’m gonna have to call it an early night. I still haven’t packed for Bud Camp  and we leave at 7am. Check out this vid I make a cameo in by My City Lives. I’ve been in a few of their videos one on the red carpet and one about genYTO. Check out their site to see more stuff about our wonderful city and some other cool peeps talking about it. Gotta run. Lots of work to do. See ya on the internet loves!

be my guest

It’s all about me over here all the time, after all casie stewart : this is my life started as a journal about 5 years ago to keep more memories.  It’s certainly worked to keep memories and has brought me lots of wonderful things like friends and opportunities. It’s been a place where I can share and appreciate all the small things and get through tough times and celebrate the good ones. I’ve got lots of exciting things on the go and I’ll be sharing them with you, in due time & all right here. Until then, I’d like to make it a little less about me and a little more about you – I’d like to include a guest post here and there. What about you ask? You know me, I like positive, inspiring, fun. I like photos and pretty things. I’d like to know your thoughts on what I do, real talk and stories about us. Maybe something you’ve always wanted to share, something I said that made you think or laugh, something you think people would like to see. No pitching or selling yourself, come out to genYTO Aug 26th if you wanna talk business with the team. I’m looking for your thoughts on things similar to what I write about. Maybe it’s your TTC tale or the way stage lights hit your face and make you feel like you can do anything. I’m up to your challenge. If you’ve got something you’d like to share title your email GUEST BLOG: [name + twitter] and send it to [email protected]. I would prefer you send a txt file no more than 300 words and 1 or 2 photos. If you have another idea, you can ask me about that too. Peace out. Peach.
