Only Instance of Me with Duckface in Existence

Dec 16 2014

From Urban Dictionary:

Duckface – a term used to descibe the face made if you push your lips together in a combination of a pout and a pucker, giving the impression you have larger cheekbones and bigger lips.

To be clear – it was accidental.

It was taken during Cohn & Wolfe’s holiday party a couple weeks ago, which was fun.

TTY Tomorrow

Dec 1 2014

At a spontaneous party at my neighbour’s, and I was so unfocused today that you’re not missing much anyway TTYT

They’re making me listen to old rock and guess the artist and title, but I just don’t hear it like, 70s rock is this dull, drone sound that my brain automatically tunes out.

Attended a Roofing Party

Sep 29 2014

Using the nail gun was the best part of the party.

That’s a giant magnet I’m rolling around, picking up nails.

Singles are heavy huh. And roofing is _hard_ work WOAH. Of all the trades, it’s up there.

Here’s to all the knees.

There’s no hiding of anything happening here.

I’m in an Ikea-Building-Party Nightmare

Sep 24 2014

Remember when I bought a house-worth of furniture yesterday? Took delivery of 17 pieces at 1pm.

Was most looking forward to the bed.

2 guys kindly came to help, thought we’d have everything built by tonight.

Was that ever delusional.

It’s going to take 4 times as long as I estimated.

And was delivered the wrong slats for the bed bottom.

I took my shopping list to the store too, to order everything with a human and avoid this. And they’re not just the wrong slats wait, this type isn’t even for sale on the website.

The slats that came out of the ether.

I was so close to getting off an air mattress guys. It’s been 2 months now.

(if we’re just meeting: I bought a house, picked up the keys on July 25 and never went back to my condo downtown, been living out of a suitcase since, blog tag = house)

Ikea couldn’t have been nicer about it, almost over-compensated, so tomorrow I’ll swap the slats, plus… omg plus:

Tomorrow: 2 newspaper deadlines Friday morning, conducting an interview about auto security at 11am, then a Porsche 911 event at the Manga Golf Course tomorrow night, and it’s the last day EVER to drive my beloved Jetta because it failed the smog test so hard, and I have surgery Tuesday morning and haven’t been able to figure out how to hide that from you…

… so I’m going to sleep on the idea of putting my blog on pause for a week …. need to get this house stuff in order because the snow comes soon, which’ll be perfect blogging weather…

Holy Crap There’s a Party at my House

Aug 28 2014

No guys, there’s 8 people in my backyard right now, look:

Sure don’t live in the city anymore, huh. The fire brought the neighbours, they just showed up and woah, ok. I have never thrown a party. Ever.

Because guys, like, in my last place where I lived for 2.5 years, I had 5 people over. The whole time. And I could have hit my neighbour with my car, and not known who it was.

kk back to the party I’m apparently hosting.
