Cheers to the freakin’ weekend

Posted on by

Had a lovely fun family filled weekend. Broke in the roof, ate lots of grub, drank lotsa dranks, good times.

Double aunt/uncs bday celebrations (plus Grandma RIP Sheila) it has always been tradition to have a big fete some point in May. It’s just party all the time ain’t it. No complaints here!

Aunt Alison has spent a time in Halifax so I bought her this necklace from Made you Look. Pretty decent!

Rog and Nance don’t do crosswords oh well, great posh regift or nice to have out on your desk to make you look sharp. Especially trying to do a crossword from the twenties, yeah right good luck with that slang poppycock!

Look how pumped she is.

My feet were sore as balls Saturday night. Thighs too. Eyes, pure bloodshot O_O we have many flights of stairs, I was on party auto pilot the whole time. We pulled it off!

Shawn liked my dirty comics (Perry Bible Fellowship, given to me from Rye) of course. He’s like yo go show dad this so he knows what I’m talking about hahah.

Didn’t get a chance to put up the decorations NO TIME NO TIME also look I haven’t mailed that painting yet. Do they have boxes at the post office for a canvas? They must. Yeah yeah I’ll mail it (hate myself).

The cats were well behaved. This morning I woke up to My Friend sitting on one of the chairs tucked beneath the roof table like it was a frigging indoor dining room, no care in the world. Had to wrestle her off a chair cushion. She likes to disappear sometimes.

Uncle Roger’s book is up for an award and he’s working on his second novel now. There’s a mention in the post about it.

Happy BDAY xoxo.

What’s up yo.

The Model Railroad Club of Toronto was a great time. We had a little private party in the club room and got to wander around as we pleased, I LOVE group activities if people are going to get together. I learned so much, and rest assured ladies this is where your husbands are and not at “the ballet” ;).

Set in the fifties, this O Scale tiny town is a great escapist sight to see with a teeny plastic cup of champagne in your hand that helps shrink your troubles away. Oh so nostalgic. My dad’s trains are HO scale, tinier than this layout but he said now he gets why O scale is more prevalent, easier to see.

It looks very real. The dust and dirt lends a quality of realness absolutely. Or they just lazy.

I wonder if Mr. Rogers ever came here? The MRC, MRRC? MRCT? Urg. Anyway this dang club was founded in 1938 and has been rolling ever since. How many train puns did you make dad?

Reunion Station.

We brought the leftovers back to our place for more eating. We ate all day long and in to the night, jolly good.

I love all the politically incorrect dated ads of the fifties too, very cheeky, lots of little mysteries and mini dramas playing out in the towns across the landscape, all named after a deceased railroad club member in honorarium. Ain’t that sweet.

Oh hi there.

Sweet wave dad what is this Johnny Carson. Basically and always. We are the family that makes fun of each other constantly it’s a bonding thing. Shawn and I are pretty good at it. I am the best of course and don’t you worry little Raymi haters, I receive a double dose assault back.

Nice painting!

Ground control to Major Tom.

Don’t stress out now!

Mrs. Bunyan.

These two hadn’t seen each other in forty years, known each other for forty years?

Women are angry have a cigarette. I loved english media and disecting subliminal messages in advertisements, guess who was the top pupil in that class, naturally.

Home Hardware Pride! I gave five years of my life to this company and happy for it, I’m handy and competent with house hold know-how not that I flex these skills much anymore but I’m buildy if it ever requires DIY this that or other.

Is Tom Hanks in there catching Leonardo Di Caprio if he can?

I love that there’s random dudes filming totally un-filmworthy scenes everywhere. Action!

In a foxhole with my Dad and Dean (the club president).

I only had my cellphone in my pocket when we got this special treatment crawling beneath the track layout tour.

Oh look it’s my favourite tree. No really it is.

Some of the guys in this picture were milling about on Saturday. This scene is kinda F Scott Fitzgerald looking no? The orig Fritzhelder! HAha.

Mmmmm.

I was too hyper active and ADD to find any of these things. Next time though for sure. You can have a birthday party here for kids or just go by yourself, or become a member. My uncle seemed interested kind of, I think his layout was O scale too. Kind of a long drive from Ottawa though, as for me I live around the corner lol. I can picture a blogger group outing here easily, non-stop pics being taken.

Look out Tiny Town, run!

How many old fashioned movies does this make you think of?

Uber Canadian :).

Here’s the photo from the video shared below.

Now go check out the railroad club, pals!

Here’s an awesome ring.

And another.

Didn’t think my mom would like this modern key.

J’adore.

My delicious pop.

My delicious face.

My thinking about something delicious to eat. Okay I’ll stop now.

Have a great Monday people!

Tartin’ for your fartin! Toot toot.

Now what Raymi the Minx thinks!

Posted on by

Hiya pals.

HA.

I like the smell in the bathroom of Habits, it’s of wood.

Parondez moi?

Adorablah right. It’s cheesy but whatever, my Little Raymis love me and I love them too. Buy me something stupid and I will wear it. Fact.

I’m having carpaccio next week. Stamped it. That’s how it’s made too! Zing.

Woodland Mushroom pasta for Woodland nymph that’s me. Maybe I’ll proceed on to my true calling of nymph cosplay, yeah? YEAH! What bitches hate elves? None.

Fried Oyster big fan here. I am looking forward to eating one of your friends next week. Fuck if I were an oyster I’d want to be put out of my misery, some are like straight up hocked loogies (sorry I know haha) and you’d wanna be that for life? Please, do me up gloriously and lay me out to lunch. That is an example of stand-up which has to be extremely offensive. Has to.

I’m making a kissy duck face at this picture right now.

Hot photographer walking. Sitting at my table, eating, from my plate drinking all my draaaanks. Welcome with open arms I’m an Alyssa fan!

Had a bang-up time. The girls thought we were going again yesterday, no no NEXT Thursday.

I caught you a delicious Bass! No really they did. I picked up its head, half spine up and tweedled it back and forth for Teacher with my fork and knife and started singing HELLO MY BABY HELLO MA HONEY HELLO MY RAG TIME GAAAAAAAAL then the neck snapped off and it went PLOP on to the plate. Yes I died laughing, Teacher was disgusted.

So dark. Hollandaise sauce, the steak mooed.

What is this Dark Shadows? It is now muthf-a!

What does not kill you only makes you stronger. Like food invented to kill you.

Designer straws. I drink coffee with a straw to protect my teeth as much as possible. I was torn between easter spring tones or these EMO looking things. I so love that everything in Ikea matches and we already had the candles in the cart plus black straws are cool for when you’re feeling Darth Vader or depressed. They’re half clear and solid block. Okay that is enough about my straws.

No just kidding. The purple one matched my juice drowned in vodka soda water. We were pre-gaming for The MES party ya mon time for some M.J. on this fri-day it’s a gorgeous one out there and I’m going to mellow yellow it so I don’t get freaked out about hostessing this weekend. I am excited and happy for it but a perfectionist when it comes to these things.

I look reedeekulous here haha but I kinda dig it?

I like the slanted mirrors for short peeps and peeps in wheelchairs, cos then you can go like this! I guess if I am looking up at it then I am short too? pfft! FT!

Went for a drink and a super late lunch with ang before he caught his train back to mtl.

Peace Rocketeer.

Kitchen wasn’t open at Brassaii yet so wee went here. Nice irish fries. I ate them like a raccoon and got drunk off 3/4 of a pint of beer. Tubulaaaar bro.

Nail model!

Pant hole watch 2012. I’m going to sew a trucker patch over it like hippies do with their pants.

I wiped out on my longboard wearing these and the knees didn’t even rip, they’re solid except for the mega hole which I believe begun from hiking them up all the time cos I’ve stretched them out and you know, it happens I guess.

He tried to convince me to add blue and I thought about Laura from ANTM who is ANNOYING but I think he meant baby blue or popsicle blue. No, I am already turning into Animal from the Muppets plus Clementine from Eternal Sunshine of the spotless Mind. However, colour is in right now. I just want to go more vibrant red if anything. Clifford red. BRB with more.

One evening in May

I knew the photographer of this shot, he didn’t recognize me, I also shoved him out of our way at the check in table because I knew him I had to take my glasses off and go up to him afterward and make him look me in the face before he knew I was Raymi. I liked being incognito a little bit.

I’m drinkin’ all your drinks!

Super packed party, really was a nice time. Congrats Shawny I spot ya in the crowd! Where are the official party pics, on epilogger?

It had everything from massages to a slushy/ice cream truck, bull riding, photobooth, cotton candy, open bar drinks, food, tunes, it was brilliant and housed in the corus dream office facilities (with a slide!) such a great grand brand new venue we had a lot of fun and literally and got to be kids again for a night.

My tights matched my hair, I was a blob from pre-menses and bech was “on hers” and we squabbled all night long like a lesbo couple with all of the bickering and none of the sex. We got cut off at the fox cos we were all crazy yelling and I was like we aren’t drunk we’re just crazy. Casie’s crew of birthday revelers started it though and I think we got lumped in to that, no worries we just went up to her place and continued rollin’ up there.

Baby Jules did us proud on the bull.

So pretty and cute I want a picture with you.

And you too.

When genius nerds rule the world wicked things happen. You know how many people say WE SHOULD GET A SLIDE it takes a true visionary to just go and do it. Props.

Also awesome.

Hiya.

Beautiful roses everywhere it was such a lavish fancy affair very Shawn Hawaii essentially a representation of all the bells and whistles your event could have My Event Suite will help guide you through the stress of and tie up loose ends that go in to event planning, thank god for that. I’m going to use it one day. Mechanical bull? No contest.

Bathroom pics are stupid when you can…

red carpet it up son!

By the time I had the nerve to “consider” riding the bull it was being taken down aw shucks. I was a pussy this night, I’ll admit it. I wasn’t wearing underwear OKAY!

I can’t wait to go more vibrantly red with my tresses next dye.

That is the most dramatic rose I have ever seen. We forgot to do the smell the rose and throw it away dance move.

I threw petals on one of the girls when they were dancing with a guy it wasn’t as romantic as seen on tv cos the petals fall super fast without the aid of slow motion effect.

I love when dj’s lie to you about playing your song then play something a billion times more terrible. Play what the dancers want to hear or risk losing the dancers. Some passive aggressive dance tunes were played.

Went for a bev or two at C’est What since we were in the hood I love that place.

My barrette needed some re-clipping work.

Then the yay crays headed over to the pub. After hearing and reading all about it on Casie‘s blog it was neat to finally go there, it’s a nice little place I like it. Even if they cut us off, or maybe Kerry was lying. I tried to further investigate but they thought I might start a scene (I was too passive to care this evening so that would not have happened) so they formed a human barricade between us girls and the bar staff haha so smart!

Hey Dan!

Gee I wonder why they cut us off!

Jules sneer check, me total phoney, Rebecca, jury’s out okay lets go.

Cute! I was amazed this cake had been untouched and not sat on. Breakfast birthday cake is the best.

This photo probably would have been better without me in it lol.

Balloon head.

Why do I have to be the stupid one. Again. Don’t answer that!

Redemption!

The lights look like tiny little snowglobes.

Happy Birthday Ms. Stewart.

Then sexy business lady had a nice meeting at Mildred’s the next afternoon.

I enjoyed a delicious glass of pop. Poppity pop. I deserve pop. Trying to cut down on pop. One pop a day is not even enough, it’s bad how addicted I am to it now.

Sizzurp.

I look all nakes!

Can you guess why I started wearing my mary jane wedges again?

Have a great Thursday mes amis! (psst blog title is from a Feist song btw)

Tickle Trunk Time!

This room was originally supposed to be a hang space. Now, it’s an avoid space. It will be cleaned before I give a raymi Cribs tour as part of a web series show. It’s stressing me out that I have to clean it as well the entire house. I am a slob and I date slobs. Slobs with three animals and my brother and I never did chores as kids we were horrible spoiled jerks and now I have no life skills cool thanks mom lol. Anyway it’s also a lack of storage space issue, so it’s back to ikea for more compartments as well a lot of getting rid of needs to be done end of story. My mom hordes clothes too, lots of women do and now with the dawn of the event those swag bags pile up I think brands should give gift cards at events as a sort of paperless eco-friendly thing and then eventually all brands will compete to do it and then we’ll have gift cards bonanza and you can regift them ahhhh, love of the regift then I’ll never have to shop anymore and everyone loves free swag that you got and horde then eventually give up, everybody wins! Okay time to order some food (oh what gluttonous crap will I select tonight) I know what half you guys are thinking about right now and you’re wrong it hasn’t happened yet guess which colour though dirty birdies. Big discount on my new little friend right now too, it will be the same colour as mine as well.

This will be me.

In rod we trust. Both little guys are award winners too. Like me!

Women’s Health Best in Bed Award. Well ya don’t say. Can’t wait. When I’m through with it it’ll be Raymitheminx.Com BEST IN COUCH.

This is hilarious to me right now. Time for a Time out.

I was looking for a screen grab of it sitting in the back seat of a car in a parade HAHAaa.

In other news new shower curtain. I’m pre-menses water retaining right now before the stupid jerks make fun of my tum tum. This body is a wonderland. Bzzbzzbzbzzbye!

Blame it on the Raymes. No, please don’t.

New polish means all the things in your house that matches it come out of the woodwork mantel to pose. I ain’t complaining boo!

Then I hated myself for not posing them all together and I still do.

I’m going to do my toes yellow today. Nails I’ll do the same maybe kind of insanely distracting.

Brunch stomachs don’t lie! BAHAHHAHAHHA take it away Shakira.

What’s in the cup? Vodka and coconut water and lots of ice. I dare Lady Garbage to try and drink my night time water glass now. Can you imagine if she could drink from a straw? Do you know the can you imagine game we invented at ikea that made some woman make a funny face at us? If you don’t have a pre-ikea cocktail then that shit is not happening bro, intolerable.

Nowhere nearly as pretty out today. Pray for a nice weekend.

Be careful about drunk shopping though because not all purchases are winners. Baby plates, teach? Seriously? I eat way more than those tiny dividers allow can you imagine piling a bunch of spaghetti on those. Wait I can’t eat this until my mom cuts it up.

I showed this photo infinity times on Saturday because I was so jacked to see blackberry swag finally. Too bad it’s erasers though, who uses pencils anymore it’s all digital. So blackberry for you right, so it makes sense. Good weapons though I am so throwing one at someone’s head like a bouncy ball.

This picture made me hungry. That’s all it takes. Like a spring breeze can give guys wood. Ahuhhuhuhuhuh Butthead laugh, you said wood.

Now that I am old and skinny(ish) I have a facial line dimple that makes me look adorablah if I so happen to need to look adorablah which is ALWAYS.

I’ll book a salon visit for next week so they can see what I’ve done to myself. They all dig it so far so that’s a relief.

Love this daybed.

This roof is going to be lots nicer looking come weekend and we can get rid of those sad dead little Tim Burton trees.

Suckin’ it in massively here then collapsed in to a Peter griffin blob in to the lounger ahhhhhhhh.

When I am making those lips in pictures it’s from letting air escape out of my mouth from holding my breath (sucking it in) in pictures for so long so now you know. I do it when I’m nervous at an event to keep from passing out when we’re all being photographed together or I spy dagger eyes all around me but still have to pose for a picture. Party girl shit is work bro.

Brunch loophole. Irish fry is served all day and that gorgeous patio in the sun I thought back fondly on this meal all day long afterward, still am.

Even though I looked like a total slob and there were put together “guess their sport” groups of people all around us. I got a bit burned I think from the sun then I went up to the roof for more once I bought SPF sport spray sunblock. Do you play sports? No, but I use their sunscreen. I feel guilty even when I buy sport tampons too like I am lying to them and they know it HAHAHAHa so stupid right. I think “dancing in my living room” counts as a sport. I have a tampon plate at Rebecca’s by the way. She doesn’t use them. Or anything. She holds and releases. YOU CAN PUKE NOW. She has an art show in 2 months it would be a perfect opportunity to come out and ask her all about it. You know I’ll be there, come for the Rebecca stay for the Raymi.

There we go reasonably pulled together.

This was Saturday. I’m going to be wearing a lot of emerald green now that I’m a redhead. And green eye makeup. Maybe I will befriend a leprechaun too.

I did the I’m so excited aerobics speedy dance move she does in the movie wearing this at Salvador Darling btw. No one got it. No one ever does.

Okay this loser needs a shower now take care now bye bye then. Tons more to look forward to on this here blog thing coming up. Big tings I tells you! Also last night’s party shots and the after party and the after after party haha.

ps. we were on Epilogger today. That means something according to Jules.

Speaking of her I still gots to post scenes from the new babyland dance floor. Can’t now foodie biz meeting to shower for, hope they feed me. I will sit there like Weekend at Bernies ahaha jokes. Peace out -BigRed.
