Brunchin’ ma brains out


Spanish Funguy, which I named.

Now that I am an adult (child) I am trying to re-wire myself as an eating breakfast (in the afternoon) person and lately I have been riding the brunch train like a good little socialite so thought I’d hit up my BOOM kin, my bredren, that be, and have brunch-proper. They got WIFI now so no more Raymi Whinehouse (but i need to BLOG) complaints. That is a whiner pun not a drunk pun, for once.

Ladies, say it with me now GRILLED TOMATOES in lieu of frites but make sure someone else is nearby who will give you a handful of theirs.

No wait, you can ask for two. Better idea. I am a big fan of the insanely specific and complicated order. …and a side of 3 peas please.

Do you like this do you like this? Yeah that’s what’s going on! Girls eatin’ up in there were like DAYUM at my platforms, ‘spect!

I came from Fraggle Rock to dine with you!

And write on my blob.

Look at how much I enjoy my occupation!

The next time someone compares me to Courtney Love I am going to say that I more so relate to Reese Witherspoon or Gwyneth Paltrow and when they say, “Really?” I’ll say BAHAHHA NO. See my Linda Hamilton pipes? Kelly Ripa Raymi.

Ok thank you colleague, good to know.

Wifi hook-up, firstish thing’s first.

Boom frites are irresistible. I had 4 or 5. They dress them in this metal bowl with rosemary and sea salt and other spices.

And, did you know you can get a 13% (HST/Tax) Raymi discount WHEN YOU PAY AT THE TIL and say I am on Raymi’s D(iscount) List to the cashier. No prob Little Raymis.

Some of the servers hate me I can tell so have my back please thank you hahaha. They think I am a diva. Well, Tony did call me a jewish princess yesterday and sent me a hilarious photo email apologizing for not being there.

I call this the Skinny Minx and it hit the spot mighty fine and I gave a piece of bacon away. I order off menu there. #swag #baller #VIPLEASE. #stalktomebaby Ok I’ll stop now. #meow.

Since yesterday, I have torn off that cut part of the apple leaf :( Joey gave me this years ago. It makes me look professional, grown-up and someone to be taken seriously.

Heehee EXTREME TIMES! You must experience for yourself to BELIEVE! Get one of those car dealership crazy circus billowing things out front too. What a spokesmodel, right?

Fresh from playschool.

See the Wifi egg? Cute.

This could be a photoshop meme, in a red sports car, Pearl Harbour, massage parlour, etc.

Ok we get it now? Boom now with WIFI! WHY fight it? Have you seen the Menu? It’s full of puns, expansive, cheeky and great, I love it. We sit around naming new dishes, wait, didn’t I name spanish funguy (what colleague ate?) Wow I have early on-set Alzheimers.

Test lighting shot. I want studio lighting, next time no arguments. FLASH ME.

I can wear gladiator wedges with black tights because the toga-ness of the dress unifies the two, get it? Also, I am Raymi the Minx. Word. You may hear that sound byte on MTV with an F-bomb in for good measure. The show airs after Jersey Shore. The private life is offish overskies Lebowski. Ps. I’ve been on MTV before.

Coincidentally they have a screen-grab of joey and I and I saw the same wall of photos just a few days ago in that infamous office. They say it takes ten years to be an overnight success. In my case, eleven.

My makeup is a bit, bleh. I put primer all over my face. YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT FOR YOUR INFORMATION. I was born a guy so things like makeup skills I have picked up along the way ie. probably doing it wrong. I want a facial. The G-rated kind (you guys disgust me).

One piece of toast only I said over twitter before I arrived haha. It came cut in half and I said I SAID ONE! and the guy with the name I always forget goes, It’s cut in half. HAhahaa uhhhhhhhh.

Get those eggs I directed.

Eggs everywhere. Very cute. Very my mom.

Triple chin.

I love showcase fridges. It makes me feel like being in a mini-diorama of a, diner?

Colleague is hair jealous.

I could also got for some teeth whitening. What colour is that, beige? The colour of garlic? When it is blue/purplish tinted that means it is local so you should buy it.

For you, Little Raymis, the world.

Looks like I am eating an orange. I am not eating an orange that is the yolk exploding. Will this finally make Marco Pierre White contact me?

Poached eggs are the healthiest eggs you can order cos they boil them. No grill oil, grease or fat. Skinny Raymi tip. If you follow all the stupid things I say you will look like the girl you see in this picture someday. I am an expert life coach.

You have to get toast, because you have to sop that up. Also if you have insomnia, I read that toast at night can help, carbs are brain food. I try to defy toast though and I have proven myself and conquered it. When I did a carbless diet, the first two weeks I had a splitting headache in-between being totally stupid, slow on the uptake and possibly crabby. Your hangovers get worse too because you switch to whiskey from beer and have no base for it anyway and whiskey, everyone knows is much harder than beer. It works but it was hell.

Doing this to my ankle is tempting fate much? Like my dress? Get it from American Apparel yourself and lets go out partying. To kickstart that you can get a FREE (NO CATCH!) $10 Gift Certificate for American Apparel via Fabfind. I got mine, and Little Raymis keep telling me (and thanking) of their coupon collection so awesome for that! Kylie helped me decide to rip off her idea entirely and get these hot tights. I want them in pearl.

I delight me. Those things are ridic to wear.

I bought them as a joke for Wakestock.

Get your work done and your egg on!

Is this poster too much for Boom? I asked Al. Apparently not, according to him. Ha.

What kind of car is this? Mazda Miata, ok good like I thought so, I sent this picture to my Uncle cos he has/had one lol. He’ll be like uh, thanks?

Tomorrow is the weekend, big brunch day, and there will be line-ups down the block so get in early or late. Try to use my name to line-skip. They have booze too if you are desperate or like to keeps it Bukowski. I’ll pick up the tax for you don’t forget and their breakfast special is CHEEP omg I am turning into a boomer, boomers make puns like crazy (right dad?). Love Raymeh. Thanks for brunch Tony! Muah!

Beep beep boom boom.

Meet Bechnique!

I do social media consulting on the daily basically and here is an example of one of my subjects, my buddy Rebecca and so far she has done everything I have requested of her to date pending my immediate critiques and suggestions ie. online public banter with me. You are wasting my and your time if you aren’t on twitter. So now she is! She’s been out of the game awhile so I am extra impressed by her. She is just as weird as me. I told her blogging was made for our kind DUH. She skinned SNAKES in the south and survived a garbage truck take down!

No corners unblogged

Hello Dearies!

Number one Little Raymi got me a sexy (christmas?) scientist outfit yay! Now I can do another Tim Burton masterpiece.

Tree in the morning sun today. I love it. My new friend. Move over cats.

And dog cat.

After Bunny Angora left, and we had a flat crust philly cheesesteak pizza, and didn’t find it satisfying enough so we ordered it again as the reg crust and it is gooier and I hated myself well kind of, I danced it off a lot. I had pizza at MTV yesterday too. ugh NO MORE.

I had almost half. I just go man, I don’t know how I put all this away, I am good at hiding and balancing it and restricting. I had a tidal wave of emotions in the green room and every time i put a square of pizza in my mouth I felt better. You do get crabby and insane when you don’t eat. It’s classic calming tv trick, pizza will come it becomes everyone’s mantra, you look at each other with vacant eyes from the couch and mouth pizza O_O. Then it comes and you have 4 pieces. I will look like a denim nicki minaj cupcake I bet. Did I spell her name right? Man she is fun to look at and google.

Here’s something I should have said when they pulled up a video or two of mine and said they were mundane. Oh really? because What I actually see happening here is a girl rehearsing for her burlesque showcase which she worked hard and diligently on (whilst juggling many other projects) all month long and it’s her final run-through before leaving for the venue. That’s not very mundane at all actually. Heh. I laid in bed all night going over everything, Teacher was like your mind is racing I know you. They asked what I would say next when I got home or blogged I said I would probably wait and see until the episode airs and then play the game accordingly I dunno. They got me good though. I can’t even make any more comments even just ones that seem mundane as they will give it away, like how I dressed and what angle they are definitely painting me as.

I remembered some brilliance from my interview with Ramona but then I lost it again. Both these things will be airing in January and yes I will give you long advance notice.

One outfit option. This is like my Keg uniform No I do not work at the Keg. Mom, Lois, girls, Keg Holiday jam? YAH!

They need to sleep in the mornings, so lazy, I get up and they are like just chill dude please catch you at lunch.

She’s SO CUTE. A dwarf and, retarded. My two favourite things! You didn’t know? Lucky doing my makeup was like everyone who works here is part retarded and I said that’s perfect because I am FULL retarded.

Penguin!

My hair has moved in to the “long” category now. I am going to start getting super super prissier about it, hang tight dudes. The monster plan is coming to fruition. Remember me with long black hair? Mermaids have all the power. Mermaids who look like p0rn stars who half of everyone thinks is crazy or stupid so they write off all the while my rank and traffic rises. Susie Marbles who?

Oh my god crazy sirens right meow. Lots lately in PDale.

Normally I go to Holts and take 50 pics of their store front xmas display get wasted at Hemingways and call it a day, this will have to suffice for now. iLazy. iCrazy. Ha no crazy busy.

It’s christmas in there too and still have to put that shelf up. We all lazy.

Minxes like: cheese, meat, eating as fast as hyenas and laughing at you as such.

Seen here in their natural environment, domestic molestic interiors. Do not disturb while at play unless you have come armed. You will not win, this is what we are doing until we are finished.

I need to start photoshopping myself. Or get eyebag surgery. How much does it cost? Find me a sponsor kay daddy? It will be blogged.

This hat will not be a regular thing.

Who is coming to the xmas show dec 18? I’m going to google xmas pin ups for the poster.

Brunch time now, ooh going to my fav Boom location and they have wifi now eeh! Poached eggs here I come. Don’t I look like a crazy wizard spaceship commander here? Say yes it feels so good.

It’s minxing season

…and how do you feel about that Raymi?” “I dunno Ramona, how do you think I feel about that?” lol.

Steph look I’m doing your shrug.

And I was staring in to this perfect angel being like Alison from ANTM holy fuck lost in those eyes and her scarf, I knew what she was up to with that thing you can’t get anything over ol Raymi nice try Diane Sawyer. Hehh. She liked my vest. I bet Susan Sarandon would fizzle up and die if she looked in to that flawless tv face. Right? (Susan come on this has gone on long enough please let me feature your ping pong ball bar on my blog I love your drink menu).

I really had to look at some japanese kitschy shit.

I sat in plenty awkward positions to have spinal variety, I came in like a lamb out like a demented lion. Ramona was shocked by my shyness when I arrived and they were rolling. I was like what? Of course! I am terrified right now. You wait for these moments forever and they happen and then you freak out. It’s normal.

That necklace was not co-operating and my gf said not to wear any of my hello shitty junk tonight on mtv baha. Fine.

Honestly my mind is wiped of all I said here today couldn’t tell you a thing. Oh I talked about jealousy Traps. It’s funny when your jokes become blog law referenced. Oh yeah that, clearing throat prepping for some studious bullcrap I am about to deliver, which is funny cos apparently I come across dumb when I use eloquent long ass words everyday all day I am well spoken, thoughtful and poignant. I hate that the hot or slutty girl gets trashed on for it and circled out for “being dumb” what? I AM A FUCKING GENIUS. Do I need to take a picture of my Valedictorian plaque again? Have you seen that I have won over ten first place blog awards in my time. I am grandfathered out they won’t let me compete anymore cos they think it’s unfair.

Anyway. #Awkward.

It smelled like pee in there. I hoofed it up and down the stairs like a champ.

A dude (maybe crazy maybe not) said I looked really beautiful and came back again for another lap look-see. I was being filmed and colleague was taking these and the sheepdogs thing bah too much, it worked, but yes the point of this anecdote is I like it when strangers compliment each other. I do it all the time, spread the joy. Of my pretty. I am old guy bait don’t worry girls no reason to be threatened.

See the sheepdog guy, perfect timing, too bad I had lost the ability to speak by that point and he’s like who am I waving to, for what? I should have said BATMAN!

Had a wicked hair day.

Double point, that must have been something sublime.

Stalker shot. They wanted B roll. After my public washroom piss I texted Jefferson, “Show time.” They were disappointed I didn’t roll in with colleague photographing me. Truth is we were late and I was triple taking each escalator like a maniac and outran the codger. I bet they will be studying my blog and go, now, the subject, after the interview, headed home, and there, she, blogged. I can’t tell if this is funny I’m just jacked and unwinding I have been a talking mental case all day long. It all went well I am pleased.

The MTV thing totally destroyed me which I expected I mean, it was a judgment panel right? Lets be honest here. Of the other two I talked the most, of course. It got catty and I was defensive, but chill too and they said a lot of positive stuff as well. It’s TV baby and I coined a new term in the green room HOW THEY GONNA KNOW IF YOU DON’T SHOW? They said my videos are mundane. Lauren O was like I am not saying that re: whatever they were saying in her ear so I am dying to know whatever that is and of course the twittersphere will be glued to this genius shit. I knew I should have worn my burlesque heels cos they asked me to dance. Ok no more spoilers back to a more civilized manner of broadcast style?

Always exit waving like my Nana who thinks she is the Queen. Our fingers naturally fall into the rock on fingers cos of our curved genetic fingers, so there are bad ass pics of Nana from the 80’s and I am like why is she doing Devil Horns out of that Cadillac for? Also at my Uncle’s wedding in another photo. Unintentional. Yes, this is how all my stories are: completely directionless.

Only supposed to be a quickie night cap post but I got lost in these YDS ones.

On the phone with, you guessed it, M-T-V what a smug prick face right? UGH. OK It’s late it’s fire tree focus rug time! Nope bed!

Ran away? I am the circus.

Check this flattering pervery comment, Gee zus! Girl you are the most sultry sexy stunning woman. Do you have to beat the men off with a stick? And to use the cunning double-entendre of your pussy coming? I’m hard as a rock for you. The world needs more women like you! Your newest number 1 fan! I tried to read it in the car with colleague driving back from the interview and I was like SHH Be quiet I am working. I think he sees driving me around as therapy HIM sessions? My brain is split in to 4 different areas, the past, the present and the future and what is going on in my email, what my next blog is going to be and the stacked schedule of December (holiday, events, burlesque, blog, blogvertorials, staying skinny, when is my period, was I just a stupid fucking idiot on camera?) so sorry if I have to cut off some sentences here and there. I don’t have time for chit chat right now. I know that sounds bitchy but I don’t care. I see myself like a 60 year old italian business guy, shut the fuck up ya jabrones does this lead to $ and is it happening in the next 6 hours? Yes but no? Then it can wait. Gettin’ Shit done. Women in the business place are not taken as seriously. It’s bullshit.

Have to come up with a name for our Xmas show! That’s what I am doing right now.

I think that these are a bit much but I don’t care. I am in the prime of my life. Primal. I am not making excuses for who or what I am. I do what I please and I go about my business and it’s funny once you go zen how many jerks dive in your path trying so hard to fuck with your game, they lash out, correct you because they feel inferior maybe. I have seen and experienced it all.

My mom said just ignore and act superior. I said, I already am lol. Why why how timely is this article, thanks jezebel! Turns out bitches be jeals for reals!

Getting sick of looking at these. Sorry MJ much.

Bingo! Very Betty right? I have a fifties diner outfit badly.

Need to do more squats.

Still got it though.

My prop was problematic at points, all tangly and so some dopey pics to show for it.

Must get it perfect.

Interview went great, shot over YDS and the Sheepdogs were performing in the background, very today live or whatever dumb morning shows broadcast in Times Square (I miss NYC BAD). One down, one more to go. Now I am nice and seasoned for tonight’s thing, I’ll still be super nervous but when am I not? I might wear this:

We’ll be standing so I’ll get to showcase my long legs.

Can you tell I don’t know how to professionally tap dance? I know right. Just barely, I’m so good! I studied the tap dancing guy on Sesame Street closely. Tap dance yo problems away! Adding whatever dumb floor posing pics have uploaded to this post now, should have just added it to the previous one. Ok I will do that. Done. I am a fan of mashing everything in to one giant post as always, same shit right? Right.

I love a saucy mystery.

Omg sometimes it is like a crazy person is writing this thing. Ha ha.

Bunny said some girls just get so jealous they fuck with you hardcore because of it, guys too. Oh man she has stories. It’s just so suffocating when apparently everything I do for myself to achieve in my field apparently warrants such gross malevolence. Yah fucker look it up!

My Fred Astaire Puttin’ on the Ritz dance was better I think but it’s not christmas, this will likely be one of my solos. Enjoy it while you can before some housewife flags it. Oh haters, there’s actual burlesque performances with nipple pasties and all on youtube and no one flags them, way more revealing than mine. You sad. Thank you for getting in my way, I’ll throw the others on youtube just in case.

This is a Paul Frank hat of Teacher’s, he said it doesn’t look good on him. Over-sized hats on chicks work.

Lol it’s so bad.

Bunny you forgot your apron. She’s going to alter my santa dress to make it ho ho ho-ier.

Had fun with being dive-bombed by the cat. She kept coming for me.

Nathan your piece is over the stairs now and looks awesome there. No I do not hate you ;).

OMFG.

No time no time gotta go last minute again why do I do this? I am in a documentary web series about digital blabbity blah this and that and some big deal types are also included in it, it’s an honour. PEACE!
