What I invented today: Alternative scents candles

I like cranberry and vanilla as much as the next guy, but there's no harm in thinking outside of the box. (I'm alone on this aren't I?)

Video games aren't necessarily a waste of time, but I'm pretty sure that watching someone play video games is.

Connections Missed: lunch

I also can't tell you what she DOES want on her omelette, I've jumped the queue and left. I feel a bit odd not knowing how the story ends. (Note: The dog is tied up out front, not in line for eggs)

Dogs with jobs

Oops #9

I'm really busy, so today's post is a Squeakymarker flashback.

corner of Bathurst and Eglinton today

Someone's 50th anniversary tea set is for sale right now in a pawn shop near where we were back to school shopping. Someone should buy it, but it's kind of ugly.

CNE FOOD

Here is a list of the stuff we ate at the Canadian National Exhibition today. Washed down with double caffeine coffee dubbed "shock" which didn't shock, but was good. Tasted like old school percolator coffee.

Fat Wad of Gum

Ever get so distracted by one visual detail that you completely miss what the person is saying?

Ooops#14

Thinking of making a series. This sort of thing happens too often.

Birthday

I'm actually kind of proud of these jeans. Abercrombie has only double zero and (i think) triple zero sizes available from ground to eye level. I had to climb the wall like a frickin spider monkey to get these.

Turtwig

We didn't see him/her but we did see seven other small ones (serving tray size)

Road trip phase two

What's wrong with this picture?

I haven't seen downtown @ 6:30 a.m. before. I'm disconcerted.

Catskills

It is remarkably hard to draw while on mountain roads. very swervy.
Checked in. Headed out for dinner now.

Road trip

beach trip today

We went to a local urban beach today to give hubby time to write. We had to fight off a dog named Diesel for ages. The dog eventually overpowered us and ate our fries. The owner sat in her lawn chair the whole time saying "Diesel, no...Diesel...stop" Once Diesel had bested us, he went on to attack some french toddlers ten feet to the west of us.

The image was done after the fact, the colours added are the only ones I remembered specifically. Ginger mohawk on coke baby. Excellent.

Streetcar is late

I'm sitting on the public art, trying to decide whether I should tell that woman that her skirt is riding up in back. What's the rule on that?

Last book

Hewitt got up at 6:30 am to beat the rest of the family to the last Harry Potter book. I'm completely stealing it from him though if he takes a bathroom break. (Don't judge me...I'm worried about Dobby)

Junior High pool reopens

Sliders

I'm listening to some filmmakers, not thinking about the hamburgers at all. I mean, I can see them, and smell them, but not literally reach them without getting up and being all obvious about it.

I'm working

All these guys all wear black...so no more posts until I get to the art store for more markers.
