yes my blog is taking eons to load today GOD INTERNET GET IT TOGETHER!
last nite’s delicious masterpiece! so so so perfumey and sensational.
three hours later whipped up a new one.
movie still from the worst cooking show EVAR that you will watch anyway cos you make dioramas “for fun”.
reunited and it feeeeeels so good!
turn off the lights loblaws you are contributing to global warming! thanks for the photo opp though.
if this came in sleeveless it would be buried in clothes mountain over hurr right now.
come fall, this beast is mine.
me: fil and i are taking turns doing impressions of the noise itunes makes when it’s done importing a cd cid is getting annoyed i will import this information into my BLOG
buh, flickr’s being a right dick right now i’m trying to upload pictures of the wonderful dinner i made last nite, and yes, i made a 5-part video of it too, it was not easy.
ok now i have to preview these vids to see how dumb they are and how many butter faces i make.
oh and i’ll have you know that since blog-dissing sex and the city i have gotten in a huge fight with a friend (resolved now) and THREE facebook SATC gifts, two shoes and 1 martini glass. FUCK OFF YOU GUYS!
heh kidding.
basically my take on that show/movie is, you can be a sexy empowered woman and not look to those characters as role models or representatives for how you feel about men and sex and love, i could not ever get into the show, and i think it’s cos i out-yuppied myself when i was a teenager, too many issues of cosmo and tiny skirts and old men skeletons in my closet to care anymore. plus, i’m kind of a slob.
and evidently all of toronto is wearing yellow dresses now, so thanks for that one too.
update: ok i watched all four cooking vids and they’re pretty good, i hit my stride about video 2 and keep going from there, if i don’t get my own show out of this garbage then you can pretty much give up on your own dreams of fame, i mean, not to toot my own horn or anything buuuuuuut i’m probably the most charming person in the world.
mimosas, that’s what. and mariokart. and i beat the game before fil. crazy thunderstorms all afternoon, sun showers too, before that when i went out to get coffee and breakfast (from las iguanas)(breakfast burrito + breakfast special) it was piping HOT, talkin’ steeeeeeeamy and 22-25 degrees! we’re gonna roadtest a new recipe tonite i will film it for all you little rude foodies out there. nothing insane, pretty simple. i’m diggin’ on these leggings, they remind me of dance class, why couldn’t this look be in style when i was a kid?
i picked up some new eye liner, was going to treat you to a video of the inaugural eye application, thought better of it, knew it would turn out cleopatra tranny. feh. here’s to no longer dragging mascara along my lower eyelid in lieu of the proper stuff.
we’re not really breakfast people so the majority of my plate went to waste and hell yeah i smother everything in sour cream, even bacon. i used to order a side of sour cream at KOS when it was at bathurst/college all the time. this is what we’re doing for dinner.
i blame ordering this on fil, he asked me to get him a tuna sandwich (he’s trying to eat healthier) which translated to champagne and grease as it traveled through raymi’s pre-caffeine brain. i remember when i wasn’t so thin and i tried and tried to lose weight and couldn’t (had to wait for meds to wear off and my metabolism to snap back) and fil could eat garbage all the time and i was basically starving myself and still a beast, not fair.
first of all i’ll have you know that i have a zit on my right eyebrow totally nestled within it and it hurts like hell and i keep messin’ with it and i just know at some point tonight i’ll absent-mindedly explode it and have blood pouring down my face, CAN’T WAIT! k here’s the shit i didn’t buy but still kinda want, i need someone to babysit me while i shop and tell me yes or no so that i buy these guys anyway to spite them. jesus i have to put my camera settings back to normal these things are huge!
this thing is a pinky red shade from costa blanca (shut up) for 29 bucks, did not want, well, the mirrors are not helpful at all. i made a dumb video of me dancing around in it i’ll screen for how gay it is before sharing.
i tried to imagine myself in sandals or ballet flats or my boots instead of my old man pants around my ankles, couldn’t make the vision work. anyone who wants to go back with me in real life to offer a second opinion, let me know.
well hello old friends.
next up is aa, this thing is a medium and insanely tight and if you ate a tic tac it would show. i am on the fence regarding how some of aa’s stuff encourages you to just let it all hang out OR be a fucking unachievable waif. i tried it on in black and blue – ten more pounds shed and i will buy one in every shade.
i walked out to try and be jokey fun time with the girls on staff, they were not feeling it, holy shit make me feel like a big heel much you assholes?!! this is why your store is always empty and people try to be invisible when they go there.
ok i’m wearing underwear under this garment, it’s a onesie strapless i don’t know what, something to do mushrooms in at the cottage and fall in the lake?
i want it still.
you can see my ass tan lines, ps i terribly had to pee so my tum tum isn’t so tight.
the best part of the experience is knowing that the moment you leave they all make fun of you. it’s ok though cos you balance it out by getting deodorant on everything. i tried on some shorts to replace the ones some cuckoo bird chopped up, passed, til next time.
the potato sack dress i bought.
i caved and bought that bag i talked about before, in brown, poor nicole.
cave the second, brown LEGGINGS don’t judge! now i can go to one of alicia’s hipster bbqs!
on the phone with leslie she’s telling me about a fire happening in nola.
in the words of kiki dunst, DEPRESSION NOT ADDICTION I SWEAR IT!
ps. rugby shirt dude may or may not have narrowly avoided a shit beating last nite, i somewhat regret intervening, turns out he fully deserved it. nice flip flops you donut.
oh yeah tomorrow at the opera house we’re seeing this “folky, canadian jeff buckley” interesting arty theatre student PETER KATZ dude. ungh mouthful. it’s his last local gig before embarking on a UK tour this summer, so people really need to see him before the brits claim him.
he even has a poetry section on his blog for all you whimsical hurtbags, ha. basically, i’m going, so you have to go too. i will even let you pet my hair, maybe.
my show pics are not too amazing (fil’s will no doubt be phenomenal), i was fiddling with my camera settings and entered confusionville, couldn’t remember if 7M was better than 5M or 3M ungh.
god will my bangs just fucking grow!
so pretty.
it’s neat to see matt sing without a guitar in his hands, looks so naked.
backstage again trying not to get in everyone’s way.
oh hi i think i’ve seen your face before.
hung out in the front for a few.
i went for a super tan two days ago and wtf nothing, maybe i’ll go again today.
groooooooooopies, some even for me. one guy in the green room during the after party 6 feet away from matt goes YOU’RE SICK MATT GOOD! hahahaha.
pete slipped suzie a non-alcy beer ahhahahahahaa i told her when i was going down the fire escape when she started lipping me and kept going she goes oh that sucks. she told me all nite long how hot fil was like I KNOW ALREADY SHUT UP DO YOU WANT ME TO PUNCH YOU NOW OR LATER?
that is some unforgiving lighting.
matt was hella bagged.
britt was making fun of me, whatever, next time you can just LEAVE!
in one of the 600 frat houses nearby and he has a british accent and every time we walk by it seems like he amps it up a bit, like he got it into his head that this is how he will get toronto pussy, his advantage over the rest of the monkeys in the fraternity. well yesterday i finally looked up through my shades to see which lout this guy is, and i am happy to report that he actually looks like a monkey. and he’s a jock. they were all jocked out yesterday in fact and the high school part of me is always prepped and expecting something to be said when i pass by so i always have a few zingers in my pockets, but nothing is said other than this british accented puffing up fuck i wish i could remember what he said yesterday, i should start writing these gems down and practice them phonetically with a brit affect, it just really seems put on and i wonder if he ever gets called out for it, mark holmes-style at mod club.
sometimes there’s the good drunk we pass by, the eccentric kid in the sport coat totally ripped and happy to see us, pats us on the back, then we bump into him a few hours later a few streets over and we’re like family, real endearing like.
omg what should i wear tonite guuuuuuys? don’t forget i’m not babysitting any of you at imperial pub before mg’s show, though pitt plans to start getting soused early, i was toying with not even drinking today at all, we’ll see how that goes. doors are 7, first act at 8, then matt at 9 or so, i guess we’ll be at the pub for 7 or something?

UPSTAIRS!!!
oh my purse bit the dust, zipper-wise, and if this thing came in moccasin tan i’d get it, but it doesn’t, so i won’t. any suggestions?
sniff sniff 4 dollar salvation army purse thing. might have to bust out my grandma’s old faux business tote satchel thing tonite.
