They look sharp eh.
Helmets are hot huh.
This was the easiest packing job ever, because I get to be in my natural state: wearing the same thing every day.
Cars, Security and a Peek into my Life
In 36 hours, I’m going to compete in Canada’s biggest rally race, for which Nissan has outfitted me with a car, kit AND support staff for both logistics and mechanics, I know nothing about this sport.
My only rally experience was a few months ago, when I got to do the Mazda Adventure Rally. Where I won the Daniel Boone Award, for being last to return to base every. single. day.
But then I think, it’s okay, there is really only one thing to know:
Plus my life’s still unsettled from the move.
There’s more to this owning-a-house thing than you think going in, eh. Still don’t have furniture, think my washing machine is broken, and I’m nervous to leave my house alone for the first time.
Then my mind just seized up, and for the last 45 minutes I’ve been pacing between the laptop, and an open suitcase… GUYS.
That’s all I have packed, but the decals came out amazing, good and thick. The Decal Zone made them.
And my hair is looking great, thanks Kaila! Brennen Demelo Studio. Go too: 416-301-1072

kk I feel more normal-brained now, blogging it helped. Blog. Because of this blog, here we go on a once-in-a-lifetime $30k race car extravaganza. Got goosebumps typing that.

I’m car # 1998.
Just didn’t feel like it is all.
Blogging is a fine balance, because once the camera comes out to capture the moment, it kills it.
Up early and crushed my 2 deadlines at the paper, then I had to go downtown for a couple errands, found out two of my favourite girls were having dinner so I tagged along, and we were that table on the patio, cackling so loud.
Some storm tonight huh. The Jag powered through all unaffected, and now it’s 9:45pm and I’m going to hit publish, then cheers you with this Cornoa.
Here’s where this post came from – it’s the window reflection at my desk.
Have a great weekend, TTY Monday.
I’m going to miss this car. One last weekend, goes back Monday.
It’s a 2015 Jaguar XKR, post with specs here.
Remember what I always say about this badge… it’s subtle, classy, and …
