It’s a beautiful monin’

ahhhh fresh bag of organic coffee to open, do it up with some ‘nog, party on through this hangover, the two mountains of laundry is all done did (yesterday)(UGH), and i finally got my period (yesterday)(it was way late man)(i blame the weblog awards) so you can imagine what my head space has been like for the past week. FUN ZONE.

once i’m settled i will write down all of your names and then get cid to select two of them out of a pot or something.

we watched my best friend’s girl last nite with A (i want that picture of me and my chocolate bar but not the one where i look like a dude) , it wasn’t too terrible. i’m very wary of kate hudson movies, there’s a desperation vibe to them like MUST BE FUNNY AND HOSTILE AND NOT BE LIKE MY MOTHER EXCEPT I AM EXACTLY LIKE MY MOTHER FIGHT IT FIGHT IT CAN’T FIGHT IT EXPLOSION. and then there’s dane cook. we also had just rented good luck chuck (don’t judge there was NOTHING else) and it isn’t even worthy of being a piece of a piece of crap.

see you in the funny papers, love raymi.

(what do you think sarah palin is doing right now?)

when i was an orphan ‘n you were a crow

cid at his happiest.

busy day, yesterday what was.

yawn inferiority complex, congratulations you have just won a punch to the temple.

oh what’s this?

love the hidden ones noel.

if you happen upon any pieces of bark that have faces you know what to do (contact noel).

awwww

how many pieces does this shatter your heart into? mine, millions.

then to crumpler cos fil needs a new purse camera bag. the girl there didn’t like me i could tell, i ripped on the colour of the bag he wanted to get (because it was on sale) and she kept fighting me on it hello lady do you have to walk around looking at that thing? i am the girlfriend therefore boss of this, you just work here. those are the retail rules.

when you can tell someone hates you you have to compliment something about them so i complimented the fact that they were using an old piano as a desk.

he didn’t end up getting it, if ANYONE has some sort of crumpler hook-up can you sponsor these guys, thanks a bill.

time for a tan chez miss A.

convinced old man river to go for one too.

she leant me her special potion.

“tattoo fade shield” for blythe.

sooo relaxing, the time went by too fast.

not for me, god it is so hard to stop myself from opening these things.

it better be the cutest one.

houses to die for on a street to kill for.

cheese boutique pit stop.

we forgot our cheese meat and crackers at fil’s mom’s YOU GUYS BETTER NOT EAT IT ALL!

so many memories from this park, too many to count.

stinky oozy wow factor.

hannah (fil’s stepsister) was in town what a surprise! she moved away to tofino.

me zoolandering it.

she brought back a paper from her scotland visit.

oh what pervs over there eh.

then back to the city.

to meet up with the skids and a few others at green room. steph had an accident.

after a v competitive few rounds of asshole with bekki and sarah, mads and i got deep, blog deep, hell yeah.

so the big news is skid #2‘s stay is being extended like, indefinitely, maybe, well not maybe i was just trying to make an oasis joke but seriously, i could have stayed home for that news in lieu of having to deal with the gut rot from the shitty whiskey green room passes off as jamesons. these guys are in love and it is truly something, and i take full credit.

time to hit the road jaqueline, it’s been a long one.

i will like you forever

“yeah im also struggling to think of a better one (caption for this)…hmm.. i did like your jarvis cocker phase though. oh and the red-hair-flicks b2b tongue piercing with granny cardigan. just flexing my old school raymi knowledge here. those photos were all really very poignant, i thought. i suppose the fact that digital photography didnt really exist, nor did putting photos on the internet either, not properly, added to the wicked factor. blogging didnt exist, it was like you were buried in some deep dank corner of the internet. true voyeurism was reading raymi in 1999 or 2000 whenever it was.

hahahaha. shit i thought i got away with that! great pictures though. i remember the thoughts i had when i saw them, and read your stuff. you just reek of interesting, woman.

it’s actually much more than that. having looked at the suit photoset…god…i remember thinking…(and i was very very low at this point)..it’s worth it to keep on trucking because i will eventually meet interesting people. they exist. look..there’s one! and the reason i came across you is because i’d started a relationship with a korean guy who lived in toronto (through a d&b chat room on yahoo), and when i went to visit him, he’d given me a bunch of vice magazines, through which i found the forum. and raymi. and you’ve outlasted that relationship by a good 7/8 years. the best thing that came out of it. and a taste for belmonts and canadian club whisky.”

i adore this chick.

i so miss that sweater, check the drawing of me my friend did on the wall.

i did legwarmers before you, i got so much flack for ‘em too, NO ONE was doing it, those babes came from black market, still have ‘em.

see how long i’ve had this zippy guy for.

Photographies

hey guise, tomorrow i am going to write down all the names for the draw from the comments of THIS post so time is tickin’ to get your name in there for your chance to get a raymi + phil onesie. oh and the FIRST name i draw gets first choice, make sense no? unless you got something better.

my turnzies

i’m kinda useless in this vid a bit, trust me, got way better later on, i even got the ringer of all ringers out i was so floored over that one. i can barely throw those stupid sponge balls. i can catch ‘em and dodge ‘em far better. ugh the soreness is kickin’ in now, i know i’m not gonna be as bad as fil cos i wii fit way more than he does.
