overheard while doing christma eve lesbian potluck dishes...

"i'm thinking about convincing kirk to let me take the summer off working full time, so i can take some courses to get a head start next year"



"really, shmoopee? does he know that?"



"no, we haven't really talked about it yet, why?"



"cause he's sitting right next to me here. in the same room as you."

santa is my bitch

Venture brothers is the best cartoon ever. not everyone gets it, but the more absurd, the better, I say.


Last night we went out for dinner with my parents and my in laws. The food was fantastic. so was the booze. We walked Kirk's parents to their hotel, and then walked home from there.


We were all giddy from actually having a decent time with our parents, and totally started making out as soon as we walked through the door. At some point I felt a little gassy and thought I'd let a little go. Well. It ended up being the most hilariously foul silent but deadly fart ever beefed. A real clinger.


I was horribly embarrassed, but couldn't stop laughing about it. Definitely a mood killer.


Lucky for me, he eventually got over it.


Tonight, Angela joined us for lesbian Christmas Eve potluck with the Melissas (yes, my best friend Melissa dates someone with the same name). They are the raddest bitches. I planned on taking pictures but got ripped pretty much right away and totally forgot.


I drank red wine, limoncello and eggnog spiked with Cuban white rum. I ate a lot too. Eggplant parmigiana, venison meatballs and red cabbage salad with honey mustard dressing. Then I ate a shitload of chocolate and pot butter cookies and we walked Angela to the subway.


Tomorrow will be another whole day of eating with my family. It's a non-stop Italian gorgefest from about 2pm until 6pm. We're going over to my parents a little early, so I can have a run on their treadmill before I get started. I've been slacking off in that department since school ended and I am starting to feel it. Sore neck and lower back, oh and I've started grinding my teeth at night again. Time to wrap that shit up, yo.

'tis the season

happy ho ho

I finally finished my christmas shopping today. We tried so hard to do the Buy Nothing Christmas but it is SO HARD not to get something for the people in my life that I love. So Kirk and I decided to limit it to our immediate families. I did make something for a few of our friends, which I'll tell you about later, so I don't spoil any surprises. We decided against mailing out cards this year, and instead have started calling people and trying to hang out instead. Sometimes that's better than getting something you can't use, or being stuck in the malls for more than 30 seconds. I fucking hate malls and this time of year I double hate them. People are rude and blind and stupid.

This year is way better than past years though. The in-laws are coming to Toronto tomorrow, so we'll be spending the day with them. Just ONE DAY. They will be heading out on Sunday morning to Kingston to visit Kirk's sister, her husband, and their super-ultra cute baby son, Kirk. Then we're spending Christmas day with my family and that's it! WOOHOO!

OK. I gotta go finish cleaning house, wrapping presents and decorate our tree. If I don't post again before Monday, peace and love to all, whether you celebrate or not.

now with blogrolling goodness!

I've now added a blogroll. Just scroll down to the bottom to see it. If you want your blog listed, just tell me so in a comment, and I'll add you.

'who's retarded now, hunh?! who's retarded now?'

My next favouritest line from Talladega Nights: "When I wake up in the morning, I piss excellence."

I, on the otherhand do not. I am retarded.........ly hungover from a great party last night. And I think I may have to go back to bed. Right now.

tgif motherfuckers!

I don't really have much to post about, except for the fact that I'm bleeding like a stuck pig, have cramps from hell, took some advil and am now drinking red wine. So's I'm flying like a reckless, bloody, uterus-shaped kite ya'll!

Also, I came in 5th place in poker last night. Awwww yeah. I gamble too, bitches!

Sorry, I sometimes I get a little mouthy. I'm definitely going to hell.

Call For Submissions - Help Create The Shapetionary!

What is the Shapetionary? It is a visual index of objects.

It started from looking at the dictionary and wondering why some words are illustrated and others aren’t, then thinking it would be interesting to illustrate the whole dictionary, or all the object nouns...then organize them by shape.

So Margaret Flood extracted all, or most (aprox 9500), of the object nouns, and is now setting out to get them illustrated by as many different people as possible.

She is interested in our subjective and collective understandings of objects. So far over 400 people are participating, and she estimates that between 1200-1500 drawers are needed.

If you are interested in illustrating some words, email Margaret Flood at velvetbicycle@hotmail.com and she will send you a list of 6-8 words, along with complete instructions. All contributors will be acknowledged in the final project.

I'm doin' it and if you like to doodle or draw, so should you!

Anyways, a big shout out to Instant Coffee for turning me on to this project!

oh, i mean, besides oscar of course...

vote for raymi!

I visit Raymi's website pretty much every time I'm online and I have more than 5 minutes to catch up on what the hell is going on. I kinda can't help it. The same thing happens when a television and I are in the same room and America's Next Top Model is on. She is arrogantly opinionated but in the funniest, hottest and sweetest way. If you haven't heard already, she is up for a 2006 Weblog Award in the Best Diarist category. Even though only 5 people read this blog, every vote counts.

Vote now.

Vote often.

I'm looking for a good free Mac RSS reader...

any suggestions?

fancy new colours!

Last night I wrote my final art history exam and am finally off school for winter break. Kirk and I are now drinking some decent shiraz from Argentina and we're watching the Pirates of the Caribbean that just came out on DVD. We're halfway through and it's about what I expected. It's some dreamy dirty pirate fun! So much fun that I'm posting this while it's still on. Last night we watched Superman Returns. It too was adequitely entertaining.

this is my latest sculpture homework. no really.

props to Kim Adams for inspiring me to hack a bunch of war toys and hand it in as homework. And I got an A on that last project!
