The lights were on three stories down; the TTC guys were working late.
I laughed for minutes & minutes. Imagine being down there, and it starts raining business cards.
It’s almost as funny as my ham invention. I’ll tell you about that one on video though, you need to see the hand movements to really appreciate it.
It was a #ThursdayNight. Of course it was.
Best night of the week.
I was so sick of everything yesterday, that’s why I was quiet.
I’m sick of: traffic dictating my schedule, my ever buzzing phone, how time goes faster in a big city, how no matter how much time I invest here it’s not enough because I’m physically just one girl and can’t afford an assistant and I don’t like free/intern so I’m on a plateau that is killing me, and post another photo of yourself.
What kicked it over yesterday afternoon was the entitled street kid. Nope, gave my money to the drooling guy with the broken mind, and your shoes are giving you away Mr. Rosedale.
I can’t watch that bus monitor video that went around the internet this week. Can’t. Old people are my cryptonite. Entitled youth ranks very high on my have-a-short-fuse-for list, too. Bad combo, that video.
Did you know it was a Canadian (from Toronto) who is behind the fundraising campaign? Half a million raised since Tuesday. That’s really amazing, that much that fast.
Fresh flower day. Good deal, eh.
Honda video editing.
Here I am recording the voice over. Dramatically.
The black thing is my microphone, which creeps into the frame when using the forward-facing camera, which is a problem indeed.
Learned this, interesting.
Went to Kensington market. No, really.
That’s Yara playing the piano, you’ve met her before. My oldest girlfriend. Which is what it takes to get me to Kensington market (note: for those not living in Toronto, Kensington is like, hippie HQ).
Strangely, this is where they were playing.
It’s strange because, see the arrow? That’s the only other place in Kensington I’ve been.
Google that exact phrase to see the place, first search result. I’m not linking it up for a reason, and have hidden the text in a photo so the bots can’t find it, oh many I have so many tricks like that to share with you over on Smarten Up, Internet.
All right, the end.
Today I polish my Honda post, which is my best video in a while.
I prefer standard. I learned on it.
Most of my cars have been manual, but remember when my car died last fall? It’s been press and rental cars ever since, all automatic, so I hadn’t shifted anything since the fall.
Still killed it.
That’s a Honda Civic HFP, tuned out of the factory, one of about 200 in Canada.
It should be immediately accessible, no barriers. I have a thing about them.
The worst hazard buttons are on TOP of the steering column, are you kidding me. Put my hand through the wheel during an emergency situation. Have you ever got your arm caught while turning, it’s terrifying.
I say it all the time, and found further proof today…
Alen and I after our lap.
The lap.
I say it every week.
#ThursdayNight best night of the week! Tonight’s lineup includes a blog party, beer, and now it is jogging pants tiiiiime.

Specifically, I’ll be working on my sidebars.
– and here on KeriBlog.
And doing your nails.
Love doing my nails.
That tool is key, learned that from @It’sBrownBarbie. My nails are even on Casie’s blog right now. Are you following Casie’s blog? You should be.
I’ve been trying stickering my nails, I get it. Don’t bother buying cheap ones though, they don’t fit (see above), a total waste. I’d like to try having a professional put them on.
Back to blogging.
You can tell it’s Saturday night when you see the bubbly water by my monitor. No joke, check my Twitpics.
Tonight I finally got to some back-end-blog maintenance, caught up on having reliable internet again.
Made Sidebar Art.
Which is so beautiful it’s in it’s own post here.
I was going to talk on the phone while I did that, but never picked it up. Enjoyed the silence.
I’m a fan of silence. How you can fully concentrate with music on, I don’t know.
Have a great long weekend!!
Enjoy family and friends, enjoy IRL, put your phone down.
