Cars, Security & a Peek into my Life

I Was Meme-d

Ha!

This is the Strutting Leo meme:

He has been photo shopped into several scenes that usually depict a catastrophe or terrible happening, similar to Disaster Girl. DiCaprio is shopped into the scene, as if he could have stopped the incident or helped people nearby, but instead continues throughout the scene doing his jolly strut – KnowYourMeme.com

Alistair made that for me last week, and sent it over Twitter ahahaha YES I love memes.  Thanks you xo.

I Haven't Talked Since Friday

Right now it’s Sunday 4pm.

I was last heard from Friday at 5:30pm, and have been silent ever since.

Tweeted this Saturday, because it was true.

Nothing horrible happened to me, I’m okay.

I wouldn’t call it the best week I ever had, and it was maybe my worst Summer Solstice, the ‘getting paid to blog’ scenario has me exasperated….. I don’t know, just felt like being quiet and daydreaming and imagining a lot, so I did.

I went for a Morning Drive both days.

Finished two books.

Queen and Country by Greg Rucka
Fatal System Error by Joseph Menn

Thought deeply. Which means I sat a lot with my hand over my mouth, that’s my thinking position.  Made tons of notes.

Staying like this till I wake up tomorrow, then it’s back to normal, ttythen :)

 

 

I Love to Sew

Have since I’m very young, single digits young.

Gotta work out what to do with the sleeves.  I think the shoes on the right are more correct.

I also enjoying quilting, look:

That stitching is quite intricate, and gold, so beautiful. And just to say it, that’s a difficult pattern.

It’s made out of handkerchiefs, and NEVER again don’t do it; the material is too thin and very tough to work with.  Click here to find out why the photo of said quilt is so bad, and here to meet Andy, who I gave it quilt to.  Ahhhh the benefits of having had a blog forever, that last link is from 2008!

Oh wait!  Just had a great idea… I’m gonna go grab some embed code, one sec…

Kay – here’s the video that’s playing in the above photo…. so meta.

I recently lost my miiiiind over this song. It’s Skrillex and I’ve been OCDing out.

The break at 0:40, listen to at least that, because when have I ever blogged about music? Only once before.

 

 

Some Things

In no particular order, here we go.

I want to drive the crap outta this thing. Played cars with my 6 year old BFF, easily the kid I like the best in the world.

He mailed me a portrait recently, see how he’s really highlighting my esophagus.

Here’s my esophagus in real life last week.

Quite like this outfit I put together; you already know I love skirt pants and fanny packs.

Then I got all dramatic in my hood.

Drove many many kilometres last week, stopped in a playground along the way. Sometimes you just have to escape your car, eh.

You’ve met this pal before, James. He’d told me his latest invention moments before this was taken, and it’s one of the best online business idea I’ve heard all year.  It’s so simple.

I can’t say anything more, for obvious reasons, but we laughed hard over it, you will too. If you need to hire a solid webshop, he’s your guy.

Great photo of Casie and I.

Look how mooooody  (I did not mean for this post to be so car-centric).

I was sitting on my hood watching the stars, thinking about dogs.

One of my top three favourite places in the world is getting one. I’m taking the change harder than the family living there, I think.

I wouldn’t call myself an animal fan. I recently randomly was in charge of a black lab for a couple hours, this is the first time I’ve walked a dog in ohhhhh seven years at least.

Lastly, last night I cheered on my fellow blog girls at the Crystal Light Purse Challenge Fashion Show, congratulations ladies! Looking terrific! Sorry about the grainy photos, they all came out like this, I don’t know why.

Held in the Design Exchange, which was originally Canada’s first Stock Exchange, learn more about this Art Deco wonder over at The Canadian Explorer.

Do you even know HOW many Canada facts I have stored in my head?

I can do this All. Day. Long.

Kay I gotta run, TTYL! xo Keri
