Miscellaneous Things From the Last Few Weeks

In no particular order:

This Week’s Flowers Thank you K XO

That’s a good friend to text me this.

She sure followed through.



People in the next town probably heard us laughing, we’re so loud.

I have a loud laugh.

Sorry to my neighbours.

This week’s car: 2015 Mazda MX-5 (Miata)

It’s the 25th Anniversary edition.

I’m good with this car because of the Mazda Adventure Rally, which will for sure be on my list, “Top 3 Best press trips of 2014′.

Finally found a worthy home for my Nancy Drew collection.

55 hardcore originals (35 lbs) that I’ve moved with 1,000 times. Parents: you can’t go too west feeding your young lady this series.

Go for Keri.

Last of my blue dress for 2014.

Tada.

 

 

Holy Crap Thought it was Sunday

Look at me learning “vacation mode”. That’s good brain training.

Probably gonna take tomorrow off too, TTY Wednesday.

Here I am with a tree.

 

UPDATE – Wednesday July 2

Nope, going to shut it down till next week.

Everything is fine, great actually, I just need a little time off, and only want to have one job for a minute.

And this is a good week to do it, because I don’t have any events or commitments that I said I’d blog, plus both sides of the border are functioning on holiday weeks so everyone’s kinda tuned out.

TTY next week, have a great one xo
 

 

 

Well that First Week Back Flew By

It’s a luxury car week, a Jaguar XF, $75k.  It’s big.  Been liking it.

Put on a road trip earlier this week, a 400 km one.

Mobile office front seat.

I have this down, this “publish and run the show from anywhere, with a little backpack”. Took years though. And thanks again, TELUS.

This afternoon, we sat down and 2pm, and got up at 7:30. New blog coming very soon. Finally!

You’ll be able to …. use the search bar. Leave a comment. It’ll be like 1998 around here.

Non-nerds: best metaphor I can think of: re-doing a blog is like a house renovation; a big deal, there’s nervousness. So if slow updates here, that’s why.

What I look like tonight.

Don’t feel like being on camera today. Put in a big week, this one. Joggging pants, obviously. Been working out eh, started 4 months ago. It’s sticking this time, and there’s those V-lines under there ha.

I’m on a patio hi hi, typing on my lap, alone, a beer to my right. Behind me, the conversation is about dogs. I’d rather be alone, than surrounded with people but have to listen to those stories.

Next week’s column was going to be aimed at the young generation, how they’re not bothering to get their licence. Until I heard the thump.  I snapped my head around, and there was a girl flat out in the middle of a four-lane downtown road, and the driver opening his door all stunted, and I could see the whites of his eyes from metres away.  Writing about that.

I’ll leave you with some photos, from cleaning off my camera.

Time to retire this dress that summer’s over; my nicest ‘Summer 2013’ dress, to be sure.

Outtake from Honda’s Manual Driving School this year.

Another one.

Blue dress.

1 of my 3 material weaknesses – jewellery.

Daydream time now, the end.

 

My Mind is Mega-Melted

Look how haggard.

Taken as I got caught just standing there, squeezing that stuffed animal starting deeply into the dollar bins, unable to make a decision. You should see how clumsy I am.

My mind is mush, my sentences aren’t elegant, my math skills are gone.

I wandered  out of an airport store like that, down the hall, oh wait, returned, “hi I accidentally stole this magazine”.

Still haven’t recovered from Vegas, then a couple surprise days on the road, and juggling 2 jobs and may have added a third one last week.  I haven’t stopped in forever, think it all finally caught up to me.  I just need two good nights sleeps to reset.

Here’s my Autonet.ca news articles, if you ever.

Least my hair is looking great. Here’s Niki and I at work on “Illusion Head”, which is almost ready for video debut.

Thanks, Brennen.

This Thursday is a big day, then wait till you see the adventure were off on for a third of September; that’s now at 99.5% confirmed.

There was a meteor shower this weekend guys, the Perseids Meteor Shower – pieces of the comet Swift-Tuttle fall off; happens every year at this time; named for Greek mythical hero Perseus, who slayed Medusa.

Here’s the Wiki.

And did you hear about the bright green fireball that passed over Toronto last week? Nice.

(if we’re just meeting; for all my love of logic, I track the planets closer than most. Here’s the blog category)

Escaped the city for a few days.

Did you know Toronto passed Chicago in size a few months back? It’s now the 4th largest city in North America.

Wrote all day for the paper today, that’s good till Wednesday, so gotta try to get some time in on this project.

Didnt mention anything yet, but that’s been being built over the last couple months. Launch is scheduled for the fall.

Now to eat this feast.

Kay quiet time, just for a sec. TTY Thursday

I’ll close this post with a less-melted photo of me, which I’m starting to resemeble again; I’m puffing back out slowly here. I am SO excited about everything, it’s all coming together guys. Thanks for always checking in xo
