WARM IT UP!
party started at 8. i had a dinner of doritos and dill pickle chips. Good thing I kept it right and tight and only had 3 beers.
we had a nice steady flow of peeps throughout the night. I was surprised at how many smokers there still are these days... the backyard was bumpin!
generosity was at an all time high! we've moved 3 times since being in the city now and our friends keep bringing gifts. all love all the time ya know.
bottles of wine, beer cozies, keytars, skull cube trays, glass bowls, champagne, sour puss, a nifty dip thing, kitten treats, oh yes.
I love it when you bring all your random friends together and people hit it off and make new friendships and this whole love in of shared friends happens. it's nice.
i think we need to start thinking about hiring/asking a dj to take care of the music situation though. i feel like it burns me all through the night. i mean, i could play hip hop all day every day and feel the groove all night long but you gotta look out for the peeps that need a whole other groove to keep their party going. I get stressed about that and then i eventually give up (usually after someone says i killed the vibe with something too slow or too rock n roll or too whatever). Then i leave it up to the party guests and they always end up going back to hip hop anyways.
and aside from me having to "kick out" one guest that fully overstayed their welcome, who no one knew, and who popped open bottles of champagne that we were given as gifts, there was no drama. don't get me wrong i'm fully down with having a good time but when it takes you 15 minutes to put one of your shoes on and you continue to assure me that "you know more then one person at this party and that i should lay off" your night is done in my books.
The kittens were perfectly behaved, megatron made sure to put on a show for all visitors, spaghetti laid low and hid under the bed but im happy to report i am breaking that shell one hour at a time and he is becoming the suck that i'm hoping he truly is. I think my parents were pretty stoked they're finally grandparents. :)
I was really hoping Kwil and Glenn were gonna make it out, but no such luck. :( and unfortunately Steph had a turn of events that also had her MIA. that's ok, i think hayley and i will have to plan a crafy party, survivor party and ganja party in the near future so we can get these kids over here.
ok time to shower and begin our trip to the pet stores of the east end. We need scratching posts and mice and shoe laces!

kitten mom
it's happening! it happened! I am officially a mother of 2 ridiculously adorable perfect little felines.
My Nintendo DS kitten is finally REAL!
Jogee the sneaky bugger that he is surprised me last night after my girl date with an old friend who I used to work with at IDA when I was 16. HI TARA!
I walked in the door, Hayley kind of blocking the way says "hi buddy! how are you?" weirdness. she never greets me like that when i walk in the door... and then i got further in and i see jogee's face and it's half happy half nervous half shocked and then i look down and there's food dishes and litter boxes and around the corner of the couch are 2 little soft perfect KITTENS!!!
I'm not gonna lie i was in a state of shock when i realized what was happening. Becoming a mom like that with zero preparation is INTENSE. I'm still in shock, but this morning when i woke up from a completely uninterrupted 8 hour sleep (GOOD JOB SPAGHETTI AND MEGATRON!) and megatron came pouncing out in front of me and I picked him up and omg i think i might start crying right now but it was just so magical and lovely and PERFECT. I really hope they behave and everyone loves them and they become super affectionate and stress relieving and humour inducing and part of our totally dope family. SIIIIIGH could things be better right now?
housewarming party tonight with all of our most favorite people
KITTENS
box of wine in the fridge
well rested and alert and happy.
Jogee!
shit is unreal.

stressed out
I'm not stressed out right now, but i had this text to myself to post this that night we were at that old school hip hop jam with Jogee's sister. Good jam. I don't love this album version though. Whatever the DJ played that night was waaaayyy better. or maybe that's because Jogee was grinding me and i was sweating and i could feel the bass? BAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHA!! sorry family! that's a pretty gross visual.
mos eisley cantina
i was reminded of this today. star wars. this scene is awesome. mos eisley cantina. haha cant believe it has a name and a history. you should read the wiki on it. man oh man i would love to have a beer here!

canadian music week circa 2010
im jot noting this cause im watching the last quarter of the raptor game and it is INTENSE.
8:30 - drop jogee off in etobicoke, house party thang
9:30 - arrive at craig's, drink a brew, talk about his dating experiences/mishaps
10:15 - head to the garrison. park right in front! amazing! wait in line for 5 mins. apparently at capacity. i havent waited in line to get into a show in a very very long time. although it was total bullshit and annoying and we were ready to pull the plug within 2 minutes, it was nostalgic and nice and awkward (sounds bad, it was good). craig smokes a cigarette. get in. order a coke.
11:00 - meligrove band take the stage
11:30 - craig goes out for a cigarette
12:00 - moneen take the stage
12:15 - craig makes me go out in the hurricane weather with him for a cigarette
12:30 - hightail and head to the horseshoe for the junction
12:55 - make it just in time
1:10 - craig goes out for a cigarette, i go pee
1:20 - junction plays
2:00 - photo project commences, craig goes out for a cigarette
2:30 - look at our blackberry's and realize it's 3:30. or 3 or just way later then we thought it was, drop craig off. head home.
i love live music, i love cmw (fuck me the raptors just lost, my heart just sank) and i love that i made it to at least 4 shows this year. :)
im stoked for this week, so many amazing meetings, and parties and lunches planned. mmmm and the weather oooohhh the weather!
here's that post visually in case you totally have no time to read the above.
