she’s a catch

stepped out last night to check the shopcatch launch. love these ladies. i was uber sick though and didn’t show til the tail end. colleague’s like it’s so close i’ll drive and park and we’ll walk. guess what my answer to that was? if i was already planning to cab it that means i am in no form for the queen st west hill bahaha (if you’re from toronto then you’ll know that it’s not much of a hill at all) and i knew i’d be late getting ready. my run in the sun and rapidly declining immune system made it so i almost couldn’t go out, i was dehydrated despite chugging two cans of water while running. almost gave myself a seizure, as i was shakily opening my mail on the couch sweating profusely teacher was getting ready to meet heidi and i was like dude, you might need to standby in case i can’t dial 911. i expedited my cold by sweating it out in 20 minutes. don’t try this at home, i’m the professional idiot here.

oh hiya deb you saucy babe. i am eating humble pie for my tardiness here, tastes great!

no matter. walk in, do the thing, take the shots, drink them dranks, chit the chat and that’s a wrap. i spy richard, dude email me already you lurky louis. he was at my show too and didn’t even say hi. ridiculous. ya done been called out now, brah.

i am irresistible. you know what’s not? trying to spell it. lets take a closer look at my new grown-up look now, shall we then? what is this city line? pretty much. love those wedges, so comfortable. by AE. wait til you see my purple sequin ballet slippers.

i was starving and then passed starving cos i starved myself yesterday. dumb dumb. then i had a booster juice with a bunch of powders added.

richard showing ally my performance. it’s just as loud and annoying as the video teacher took but you can see what’s going on better so he better send me it quick. MORE SCRUTINY!

do you like how i went out as debbie gibson last night? or a vogue ad from the 90’s? i wore my heart polka dot ribbon earrings to finish the look and danced to janet jackson’s the velvet rope in the street by a fire hydrant while girls played double dutch ahahah you wish.

so, shopcatch is an app. if you’re in a hood and need to buy shoes, type in shoes and it will tell you where to get them. easy peasy. i am wary of the future, no one is going to know how to do anything anymore, such as, thinking. how many debates end in googling? exactly. we are f-ed.

it’s easy to spot the white angel head.

i liked this drink best.

the shop a holic. ahah alcoholic jokes, f-k that pink elephant. mint, cukes, white cranberry, fresh lemonade, orient apple vodka. SO GOOD.

there was neat art there. i love art, making it, making fun of it. drinking for free cos of it. being “seen”. time for another show i guess right? going to drop in on my ex’s new gallery space in montreal on the weekend, maybe take a show there too. time for expansion. like my ego.

time to be a team player! ps. if you want me to make a scene at your event’s launch party e: alex@raymitheminx.com subject: it girl. we handle pre- and post- push.

they cannot get enough of the raymbo.

hell yeah.

bonus points for this addition.

i was intrigued by, while also beguiling baldy over there. neither of us said hi. it was prob cos colleague is bald too and he was like well if he can get her… man colleague does nothing but cockblock me. don’t even think of trying this tomorrow night bro.

what’s going on here? and then i turned it off. it was instinctual ahahhaa.

colleague laughed his ass off. omg i am so lucky no one was around to witness.

then i switched it on and off a hundred more times. it was blowing hot air and noise, was super old and cool but like, i don’t think anyone would pay ME $1000 to turn the vacuum on for a few hours and call it art right?

now this is art.

i liked this one, it was a riddle, like we were in labyrinth. you must pull it twice to get it back on again.

see anyone you recognize? it was funny when people started smashing glasses. wasters!

candice and i had a great talk. it was essentially a think tank. i hope she was tanked.

she was one of the shopcatch girls who showed up on saturday to see me crawl out of the bushes and to the park for their pop up mobile boutique and now that i recall she was the type-a boss of the group. i distinctly overheard her say to one girl, now that’s why i made you team leader cos i am dealing with blaabhaha (social media gadgets etc) and i made a mental note that she would be a great team boss and wouldn’t ya know it here she is now talking to queen bee. she said she likes being behind the scenes with stuff and i said now, not that there is anything wrong with you but, i have no idea what that feels like and she said yeah and i have no idea what it feels like to want what i want (in front of camera). to switch roles for a day right?

it’s cool though that i am steering my look toward platinum michael jackson now hey.

my earring looks like i have food on my face. parkdale peoples were mighty curious. i loved this space. great party. i had a very mellow good time, it was perfect for my wimpy state.

then it went slightly sideways.

lil miss bougy paige could no longer resist the come to raymi vibes i was broadcasting. i love paige! hmm what can i say about paige? well, firstly the obvious is her blog is nail p0rn for girls as well as all things hypnotically of interest to debutantes and snotty chicks aka totally your cup of tea. think about what i proposed and we’ll talk over a minxing date on me (no them) ;).

what i love about paige is so many people i used to know are jealous of her and now that they’re in my frenemy territory as well, it’s extra silly to me, which also makes paige all the more forbidden. she has a “don’t be friends with” mark, much like i do but i have always seen through that. omg girl world is so hard and unfair. barf.

seriously, these are the shots you got me colleague?

only one of us reapplied lipstick. colleague you are going to have to start spotting me on that too.

everyone standing outside smoking gasped happily and said that is going to be an amazing shot, one guy goes, NO FLASH. haha yes toronto we know how it’s done.

my idea. my vision. credit monster hogger blogger. ooh feet p0rn.

we made it to hump day. phewf.
