G'afternoon!

Manic Monday eh? But to be fair the weekend was amahhhzin'! First off- my birthday party was a success! I think I succeeded in staying out of the planning of it- although it was an anxiety producing experience- I did it! lol So many good friends came from all over to hang out! Lor (the ginger) brought her vidicam.... I'm not sure how I feel about it. I love watching videos of other people, but when I watch myself playing MTV cribs the morning after... I may need to reconsider my love. The girl's Christmas party has some horribly embarassing footage, but thankfully nothing like that happened this weekend.

Chel made an amazinnnn cake! Mint choc ice cream, fudge, choc ice cream, fudge, oreos- COULD it posssssssssibly be any more deeeelish? She was pulling off the housewife persona quite well... until she cut through the silicon cake pan- "what a waste of $10" followed by Lor (the ginger) saying "epic hosusewife fail". I love it!

Parcour on the subway, Aero walking home, and seeing 15 people passed out in the living room- HA good times with great amigos!

Yesterday, Dave and I got some breafast with Ann and Adam- delish. Then we went out for Thai for dinner. Obvs I ate waaaaay too much but hey it's 2 days before my birthday. I'm going to try and not use the "hey it's 1 day before my birthday" as an excuse to not work out tonight. We'll see how well that goes over.

Short work week, then home- ayiiii! 5 K this weekend- it's looking good!

Tata,

1000 Awesome Things


I don't know if you've heard of this before, I hadn't but I LOVE it! I love how everything is so simple yet is the greatest thing in the world. This site really encourages you to "stop and smell the roses". And they have a book... I need it!

How smart are ya?


Love these things... and I'm bored! What did you get?

Vid of the Day... Something for the Sportfans


I was talking about this video on the weekend. It's soooo good!He is VERY cute and VERY bad ass... don't mess with him. He is 5 and he is a child star. As a former child star I understand the pressure associated with this level of popularity. Fortunatley, my decision to leave the limelight when I did kept me away from a life of sex, drugs and alcohol. My CHOICE to live a quaint, quiet life, has treated me well. If Josh needs some advice or just a shoulder to lean on I'd be glad to give it, he's a star (just like meeeee)!!! Keep it up brotha- you're doing great.

Poor Taylor


Aw my girl T. Swift lost badly last night at the ACA's... and I'm so sad. Carrie Underwood gives her a good run for her money but I was really surprised to see Miranda Lambert win over those two. Ah you may be wondering why I care so much about country music- and in short I hate Much and MTV so I watch CMT- the only station that plays music. I love it! Every time you turn on that it's MUSIC or a show about MUSIC not some slimy little buff kids hanging out in sleezeville or someone trying to become famous. I hate MTV shows... I think I am the only person in the world who does. Now to give you MTV lovers some credit they have GREAT viral vids. You can watch the shows anytime. I watched J.S to see what the fuss was about... but I can't believe ppl make $$ off this shit. Teen mom- this one is ok.. it's SO trash TV but I love it BENTLAAAAAAAY... that's for the ginger.

Everyone I have ever lived with is ob-sesssssssed with MTV- Charlie is no exception (she watches them ALL) and Mar- you're the worst! But still... I manage to love them all the same. I think deep down it stems from my insecurities with my hip side. I need to be more hip but I'm just not with it... SO country it is. Poor Taylor... I love you guuuuuuurl!

PS reminds me of the J. Johnson song Taylor, I think he wrote it for her:

Poor Taylor.She just wanders around, unaffected by, the winter winds yeah, she'll pretend that she's somewhere else, so far and clear about two thousand miles, from here.

2010 Juno Beef


Ok so I've got some beef with the Junos. I'm all for Canadian music- love it, BUT commonnnn! Juno Beefs:

1. Would someone other Michael Bubble PLEASE hire a stylist? I do not consider myself a super fashionista but I could have dressed those Junettes and Junors better than THAT. Sweet Jesus... just horrid. The women outside were wearing soccer mom outfits from 1997.. they may have been the worse.

2. Can you PLEASE show more than 5 awards. I get that they have limited time, but they skimped on all the wrong places. Show more awards pls. Also, when they were announcing the nominees it was like it was on freekin' fast forward... slow it down baybee.

3. Please check your sound equipment BEFORE the show. You couldn't hear ANYTHING it was awful. No one is buying any music after those performances.

The things I loved were Bubble obvs, and how Drake dominated Beiby. Drake is better and hotter and just the best- he was so cute with the little Beiby all night... he even picked him up. You think this is just cute.... but it's Drake dominating everyone and everything that gets in his path. Arrivederci Beiby... maybe next year
