I am.
And in Dynamic Mode, plus Sports Mode, with the exhaust on, using the paddles to rev dramatically, obviously.
I will make no money off this review; I spent what I’ll be paid on gas.
Don’t worry, reality came crashing back quickly.
It took 2 boosters to jump my Jetta, then this happened 9 km later.
Great little booster unit, here’s a post about it.
Ohhh memoriesss.
Here’s a sneak preview of the photo shoot for my review, which prints end of May.
And that’s 2012, guys.
Hope you had a great weekend, too.
My first real auto review comes out this week (remember the embargo?). On that topic, sorry for the lag on the blog here, I had more deadlines than usual last week.
Tomorrow, swapping out the Rogue for… a pickup truck YES. Always wanted one. It’s a Nissan Titan SL Crew Cab:
Broke out my winter coat. Tis the season, I turn into SpongeBob.
Had it since ’08. I went for the boxy version – lots of function / little fashion.
Bonuses are: all the pockets means, no purse till April, and it’s dramatic when my coat is open, how little I appear.
Plus I’m getting stronger – bet it weighs 7 pounds, on a normal day.
Love Bulk Barn. I’ve eaten a lot of #505.
Ladies – shellac nail polish, it’s a revolution: there’s no dry time.
The black ones are too grown out for sure, but see how there’s no chips? That’s 3 weeks.
I’ve detailed my shopping approach before – I don’t go shopping, I go buying.
And like last time, not all black, tada.
Top right – I killed at pool that night; I couldn’t miss any long shots… smash it down the table, the pocket echoes beautifully, all night long.
Here’s to a great start to your week tomorrow, 4 more left! If you’ve been thinking of starting something, now’s a good time, so in the future you can say, “Founded in 2012”.

Blogging my hat yesterday made me daydream about wandering around the Olympics in it.
This is when we won the Gold in Hockey, our 16th Gold, more than any other country EVER.
I was making videos for Sun Media, writing for Vancouver 24 Hours newspaper, running around looking good because Canada Goose kitted me out… Van2010 was the best.
This was my final article.
I love how this was known around the wolrd as “The Party Olympics”.
Simultaneously, we set the record for the most gold medals ever won at a Winter Olympics. Sums us up pretty well, eh?
This was our coming out party, Canada!
It’s important to keep this patriotic momentum going; we’ve been humble for long enough about being the best country in the wold.
You know those times when you got goosebumps during the Games, or when your eyes welled up? When you were holding your breath and forgetting to blink while you willed us to victory?
That feeling, that’s the one that needs to be celebrated and screamed a little louder.
I don’t want to leave here. I want to live in this bubble forever.
Thank you Vancouver, for showing me the time of my life.
See you soon.
I’m so coming back.xoxo,
Keri
(sidenote: kay woah – I don’t know where all my Olympic blog photos went, my heart is beating fast now, but pretty sure they’re around here somewhere… when that site got ported over to WordPress from SquareSpace it wasn’t easy. Sorry I’ll get to cleaning it up).
Anyway.
There’s much more I could tell you about this episode, but soon soon, because…
COMING SOON: The Canadian Explorer: Director’s Cuts
Here’s a good post I did here on KeriBlog about the Olympics last summer.
Remember when we CRUSHED IT at the Van2010 Olympics this year??
Here’s the streets of Vancouver after our 14th world-record Gold Medal hockey win.
GO CANADA GO!
The guy at the end, love him, “here we gooooooo!”.
Thanks again to Canada Goose for outfitting me for the Games, they saved me because I was in real danger of looking like a raggamuffin.
If you’re going to be out playing street hockey on Saturday, register your team with them (which enters you to maybe win a prize pack) and join in their attempt to have the most recorded street hockey games day. Good luck guys!
