undoing bad habit of pissing away summer is tough. i still got all i needed done, happily. next time out the door quicker and we’ll do the other half of the island. that guy is full on checking me out in this photo hey. get used to it. it’s hard. wedges really do change everything. even though i wasn’t wearing them plus sitting down and more than 2/3 of my body was covered by the door. i turn heads.

yellow kitty nails, one pink thumb that just wouldn’t dry yellow (it’s milky) and you just can’t do anything with wet nails. my pinks dry faster. we decided on the bond girl tank two piece bathing suit, v small bottoms. testing jenny’s smaller bottoms theory.

the line-up was annoying, why enforce structure when we all load on like cattle in thick groupings? why can’t i enjoy my ten minutes the zen way?

then if you have a bike, you do not have the right of way. anyone with an obstacle, is an obstacle. react and treat accordingly. you slow people down then we get to line-skip.

flowers are a great cost effective passive way to change and better the landscape without having to involve architecture. aka, flowers are everywhere surrounding centreville, which is where you dump your kids or go to with them. the petting zoo at night is fun, it’s all abandoned and you can walk through a western ghost town and be taller than every doorway. the gondolas of the sky ski chair lift hang overhead with whimsical weeping willows reaching down to say hi. it’s pretty kooky. ideal.

i needed a photo to see what people were looking at ie. too much love handle? this is the suit i was wearing when someone called me hippy. it’s a small. teeny. plus designer. plus bitch got hips right? anyway there is something to be said for this smaller bottoms theory, i’m pretty much ready to wear a thong anyway. i am all about euro sleaze, bring it. speaking of, teacher realized my euro suit fetish and got a nice pair of trunks from AA. not casino royale small, but getting there. see the material bunching down by my hoo-ha? what’s that all about?

people watching for one and all and when you’re done you go have drinks and dinner at the rectory, do the whole experience right. bring a nice white linen shirt (resort wear) for dinner so you don’t look like beach trash because there will be stuffy locals and old people staring you down. go like blond punky brewster, as long as it’s all white it’s alright.

shower break time happy lunch!
I love the Island. Toronto is lucky to have something so serene and relaxing smack dab in the thick of downtown.
whoever is calling you hippy is crazy. you look great. it is simply about proportion. the dude probably said that because you are naturally high waisted (look at where your belly button is and where your hip bones protrude). when you pull your bikini bottoms down really low, they bunch up on your thigh area and the design looks off. the proportions are just off, despite you being super thin.
i’m over it. i know i look good and the pin-up is back. i’m old now, older dudes faint at my figure.
i have the same stretch marks, same place, no biggie really, especially when the package they are on is as good as you’ve got!
oh you flatter
Stretch marks are the bane of my existence in the summer, I also have them in the exact same spots, plus some light ones on my chest….
But seeing someone as hot as you with them actually makes me feel 100x better, THANKS RAYMI!
they ain’t no thing. luckily they’re minimal and maybe even cute when sitting up.
you look rockin’ raymi, as always. i really love that pic of the house in the background– i just finished reading the robber bride, so i imagined you are Charis in that photo. nerdy yes but trueeee. <3
I miss spending time on the island. siiigghhh. It looks fabulous, you look fabulous.
thanks
i lov chari and the egg and crushing it in her pocket. so whimsical! an egg in a pocket from her own chicken. darling.
