Trip South Update, New Blogs are Coming & My New Jogging Pants

WEAR SUNSCREEN! YES I’m yelling at you. You’ll thank me in 2034.

Remember ‘The Emporium’…? When I set up all my belongs like a department store and invited people to come take my stuff?

That video is half-edited, it’s getting there. There’s just never enough time, is there.

Actually, I’m going to go ahead and re-embed an old video here, one from my ‘Just a Minute Series’

How about my new blog titles eh??? … come ON :D

  • FoodiesCanEatIt.com
  • ThisIsMyHack.com
  • ThingsIFoundOnTheInternet.com

But Keri on Security… oh this is some of my best work yet. Have a half-drafted post here for later this week with shots from the intro and more.

Also…

Click here to see my new jogging pants, they got their own post.

Here’s the link to Posterous – go start that blog you’ve been daydreaming about.

It sort of looks like I green-screened this video, doesn’t it?! ;)

TTYL!

I Came South, and Don’t Even Like the Sun

I don’t.  I hide from it.

I’m like a future person that way.

If you follow my Twitter you’re familiar with me bugging you to wear sunscreen.  If you’ve been bugged, that’s good, means it’s working.

I wear 60SPF every day, even in the winter. The sun reflects off the snow and intensifies it, remember that.

My perfect temperature is: sweater over a sun dress in the day, warm up at night, cute shoes at any time because no snow.

It’s been aaaaamazing for the creative part of my brain to have left Toronto for a bit, changed my environment. It gets tough to constantly see new in the old and familiar, you know?

Next up: decorate my sidebars.

Then: I decided to build my new blogs on WordPress, not Posterous like I was going to, because I need to control the sidebars.

If you are even thinking, “I’d like to have my own blog”, yes do it, and use Posterous.

I built my Hippie blog using Posterous. Have you popped over there lately?  It might amuse you for a few sips of coffee – IAmNotAHippie.com

Look where I went, holy crap I love these places.

How do they get the ships in the bottle??

Answer: they are built with hinged masts, lying flat against the boat. Tie a piece of string around the top of each mast. Slide the thing into the bottle, pull the string, raise the masts, magic.

Now I’m going to tag this post with the phrase above that’s bolded.  I’m doing this in hopes when someone googles that phrase, they’ll find my blog.  And that’s what SEO is: Search Engine Optimization.

I’ll leave you with a few more photos.

The best part about these type of photos is they make a blog look so happy.

Have a great Friday!

Happy New Years, May All Your Dreams Come True

I mean that, as happy crappy as it sounds.

I’m pretty jinxy and methodical how I spend the first day of the year. I believe it sets the tone for the other 364 days.

(and THAT’S the benefit of blogging, ha).

While I believe this….

I do love the energy on the streets, because no matter where you are, it’s always excited and lit up.

This year I had a beer in a random bar, played a game of pool.

Then the actual January 1 I worked and did something I never do: spent time in nature.

Make sure to risk things this year and dream big.

Really big kay, that’s why it’s called a dream.
