ugh! that chat reminds me of the time my brother taped a copy of g’n’r or metallica or something for this chick and i decided to have my own talk show recording over it i just thought it was a shit blank tape anyway this girl confronts me at school in the bathroom while i was washing my hands and she’s all lauren halfway through listening to this tape your voice comes on all over it and i’m all GAH NO NUH-UH real mature like and i casually ask what am i saying and she goes oh you’re like playing with your barbies and speaking in different voices and i just stood there red faced and said no not me so not me (so obviously me least convincing denial ever) and she just laughed at me as i ran down the hall back to my class THEN she tells my brother and he gets all pissed at me cos i embarrassed him and fucked up the tape. WHAT! how can HE be embarrassed about that i’m sorry but my embarrassment trumps yours ten fold bro. i also think one of her friends overheard this exchange and is all what’s that and the girl tells her too and they both laugh at me together, 2 years my senior, the dread i felt was so powerful like get me out of this how do i do it i know RUN! her name is valerie i wonder if she is on facebook.

so pumped and still a little in shock but oh man happy happy happy day. will get to the rest momentarily.


first on the docket, new glasses thank you thank you. they also come in a grey frame or maybe tan, 18 bones, le chateau hate to admit it but they do their junk accessories right everything else wrong, so sad you used to be so good to me LC.


new news, my old standby has upped their game to all you can eat sushi now, i stayed with my sashimi, though for 4 dollars more i could have done it.


these annex jungle gardens just kill me.


i impulsively decided to take a stroll up to the lcbo after i did my palin impression to some guy in front of the bloor cinema handing out fliers for the nite’s NOW election party, i’m all yeah i’m going, he’s all cool i’m all AND i’m going as sarah palin YA MAVERICK then everyone stopped dead in their tracks except for me i walked away as fast as possible feeling really stupid. there was a sarah palin contest prize for best s palin got it?




and then i made a wonderful little discovery before i hit the booze emporium, this brand new little cheese shop nancy’s cheese, i almost blew right by it still going with the image of a showcase full of little cheeses in my mind nope must turn around and go in, that i did and blew 20 bones on the spot.


i prefer to give my patronage to the little guy and so do you, you snobs. also i like knowing what i’m getting and you can’t have a proper conversation with a supermarket employee about this stuff, they typically do not care or know anything about cheese, and do they let you sample? the pepperette is v good, smokey with a bit of spice. sausage farts for one and all.


it was a surprise for fil as we hadn’t decided on dinner i wanted to blow it so badly i am really shitty with surprises (if you have a surprise for me just tell me RIGHT NOW cos i HAVE TO KNOW) anyway i had to lug that 6 pack under my arm with a bottle of wine in the other, my cheese/meat selection bag AND purse (so glad i opted to not bring a book to read) it was difficult and painful, lcbo officially have no more plastic bags and the handle on the 6 pack case was kinda wimpy and untrustworthy. needless to say my pipes are massive right now. nancy’s cheese is located 260 dupont street on the north side, just east of spadina.


preppin’ for palin.


did you guys see that scary address she delivered during the snl presidential bash? it got no laughs, was threatening, and not at all funny. SO glad so so so so so glad they lost now i can rip on her with a calmed conscience though i’m kinda way over it by now. if she gets her talk show then we’ll see.


guh bluh?


what are you doing in this square part of town ma’am?


it was gone when we came back this way on our way home.


for those joe 6 packs playing a drinking game right now… MAVERICK. the bloor cinema line-up was bananas so we went to the beer station where there were plenty of flat screens and skids to silently judge. it got heated when channels were changed several times by stupid dupes at the bar, this one chick went to give ‘em hell and i was like ok i’m gonna back her here i go then flipped out only about 25% explaining that the one tv you are controlling is connected to 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 others pointing and counting at each one all the while dressed in my stupid sarah palin garb (not in character though) and then he’s like sorry why do you care you’re american? i said no we’re canadian oh ok why do you care I’m canadian for real (this guy is like really smart) and i said yeah so are we and this is a fucking historical moment dude sorry to have to explain this then the guy turned all hitting on me hahah oh that’s a nice necklace it’s all original ‘n shit then made me shake his sweaty palm. i said sorry for flippin’ out (didn’t really) but like maybe you should give a fuck about this (dude was half black i think) he goes yeah i want obama to win and then everyone around him went yeah duh so do we like this moron thought we were all rooting for the bad guy or something?


oh hai thur.


when she was getting this on the looks from everyone oh man too funny.



the chick behind sass is the one i had the back of and she was very entertained by sass’ mental illness.



caitlin zoolander



the bar eventually filled way up, overflow from the cinema crowd. i was kinda bummed we didn’t bother at least trying to bust in there, by we i mean me, yeah i’m super glad i wore this shitty outfit and couldn’t stop speaking like fargo all nite long for no prize :(


sass palin


it’s difficult to air rifle pose, for me at least.


brad fresh from his smashing pumpkins concert. guys should i continue to part my bangs to this side from now on?


harajuku brad


WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!


spirits are raised.






there was this one rad lone black dude at the bar and everytime he walked out to call his buddies with the news he went WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO! we could hear him from inside, so awesome, it was such a good buzz uh oh i’m goin’ hippie.


i have some video of a drunk being tossed out cos he kept talking during the speeches, he made brad and i have convulsive giggle fits cos he was so dumb and just couldn’t control himself.


your voting reward


sage’s triumphant retrieval and music video debut BAHAHA


awkward fashion show


end of halloween nite on college street and everyone’s wasted


nice sky driving to the supermarket


mmmmm burrito


dog fight, chillax they wuz justa wrastlin’


proof cid is evil he sleeps with one eye open

only fucks the waking world

met at the eaton centre yesterday to start christmas shopping early, we didn’t buy any presents and i was in a nice crabby mood, we met at city grill and i had a shitty caesar salad despite the menu saying it would be delicious. they sat me upstairs cos i was dressed like a skid then two minutes later work clothes fil shows up to join me and all the bitches are like oh whoops. haha.


why don’t people know how to walk in malls? why does everyone seem lost and dazed and stupid? it’s only going to get worse the closer to holiday season. i think next time i’m drunk shopping, my brother swears by it.


anyway here’s a backlog of photos, you know i still haven’t even posted steph’s birthday party pictures or the second half of my art show ones ps. i have been paralyzed with art show paintings fear for weeks, i haven’t made any new ones or even gotten close to making plans for a second party so don’t ask, it’ll happen, i was waiting for halloween to be over and the election and ten hundred other excuses.




magical!


then my banana rang.


oh man guess how many vanity mirror photos i took of myself.


i was feelin’ on this old speaker apparently.



walter just stepped off the set of wild wild west, his demeanor is a trip.


it’s damn near impossible to get a still picture of richie havens strumming/tuning/casting spells on his guitar, i didn’t want to interrupt with flash. fuck even just doing a tuning warm-up sounds like the most beautiful music you ever heard.





what’s this? oh just a guitar lesson FROM A LEGEND is all no big deal or anything.


i did a pretty good job as merch girl and got an earful of woodstock stories pretty fun oh and the sneaked rye and cokes were a plus for sure.


ok now on to one of my other favourite hobbies PICTURES OF AUTUMN LEAVES.


this tree is closer to red now so pretty.



can you imagine being an awkward teenager and having this parked in your driveway? DAAAAAAAAAAD you’re embarrassing me!


saturday’s curry.



my dad finally has his dinky/corgi collection showcase up and running again. i wonder what shit i’ll collect when i’m older. i asked him once how much all of these are worth, he said some ridiculous amount and it’s probably even more now.


look at that shit, with the original box too. mom don’t even start what with yer miniatures, antiques, tins, and country barn finds. do you guys know how many times i was dragged to antique stores as a kid, not to mention massive open air markets on hot blistery summer days full of junk from all over ontario? flamboro anyone? aberfoyle? i think my cousin bought a knife similar to crocodile dundee’s at one, those guys are so greedy for money they’ll sell anything to kids.


this just reminded me i have a ton of ROM pics yet to go through grooooan.


another batmobile and the silver one on the left is a bond car i believe. he also has a starsky and hutch car that when you press the top they take turns shooting out each window.


i’m glad these book cases were salvaged from my grandparent’s den.


i like how it looks like this is the only sweater i ever wear now.


oh my rocky.


see? upstairs at city grill. bunch of cocks. not going back, should be called shitty grill on account of the expensive tourist garbage food.


christmas decorations out everywhere, it’s nice and all albeit stressful to see. i gather the quicker they get it out the quicker people start flipping out over presents and start spending, it lengthens holiday shopping days. scoundrels.


another favourite of mine. last year i failed to capture it properly and thought oh i’ll get it tomorrow then that nite we received a cold snap and all the leaves curled up.


i bought a few cheap things from h&m yesterday in an attempt to quieten my rage.


went to dooney’s for our first time and were slightly unimpressed. the scene lost its novelty pretty quickly and by scene i mean the waspiest poseur writer eccentrics you ever did see. the food selection was lame and the calamari was too fishy. our waiter was really nice though so i felt guilt over everything as usual he kept giving me eyes behind fil’s head haha i was like does he recognize me or something or am i just babing out right now? then i went down to whizz before we left and there was smelly urine EVERYWHERE so i held it. sorry don’t think we’re coming back dooney’s. we initially went to kilgour’s but all the booth tables were taken.


new old lady shades that take up more than half my face YES!


bday necklace for sass.


pms chocolate.
