booooooooooo ze

i am hung over. and it's all cause i stopped drinking to cleasne my body. now it can't handle squat.

i refuse to believe it is because i'm getting old.

this is a whole day long hangover i hate it... i'm at work and my brain hurts. :(

damn you beer followed by vodka! damn you!!!

blink twice

ok
my reality tv porn has just come to an unsettling head.

Turns out Travis Barker has a reality show. ala tory spellng. ala gene simmons. ala paris hilton, tila tequilla and fat people. ala the hills. ala i hate myself.


i dont know why the travis barker thing is affecting me so much, perhaps because Blink 182 had an impact on me and my gr 10 self that has lasted until now. Something that I'd like to consider "influence"... in so far as the way the music can affect your mood, your emotions, your good times, and thus your life...


And while some would see +44 as a step backwards for the once punk rockers, I simply continued to enjoy what the world of punk-pop could push into the top 40. Somehow seeing Travis flaunt his ex wife and baby on reality tv, as well as in the tabloids makes me a bit queasy.

This is also on the cusp of me wasting a half hour researching who the HELL kim Kardashian is... and guess what. all i found is that her career designation is Actress/socialite.

really? REALLY?! Her only acting credit is her own reality show

I wont kid myself (or you) and pretend like i'm going to stop looking at celebrity gossip porn. Today just made me stop and think a little. it made me feel really bad for those who feel selling themselves to the tabloids is the best option for income. I mean, i suppose it's a little hypocritical because i'm one of the few idiots who actually read that shit. but i'm in it for the smut. for the chase. for the "caught in action' shit. Not the, hey life and style, i'll pose FOR YOU. now that's just sad. and frankly, it's going to put the paparazzi out of business. QUIT FLAUNTING YOURSELVES.. FOR YOUR CHILDREN!

Meet the Barkers




I'm also finding myself watching re-runs of the hills and really wishing lauren and brody were an item now.
as well, i've finally watched an episode of the new Degrassi (they are now in f'n university!) and it's awesome.

soap in the motherboard

Hello world.

I'm basking away in my self- initiated 'office', or the control room on set, continuing to waste time before the next band arrives. This incredibly long day has had about 2 hours of actual working and maybe 6 or so, so far, that would require us to wait. yay film. slash low budget tv. i heart my job. ??

i did however manage to take some pics of my soap making endeavors so i'm posting some pics for your pleasure.

big lies... it wont load... check my facebook page for pictures :)

speedy

ok so my hectic few days have lead me to seriously break my blog-a-day streak. bah.

i'm on my way out the door momentarily to go to day one of band week 2 for king kaboom season 2. ha. i'm stoked i'm on the jib again and David our new baby duckling is steadicamming it up. shoudl be a good week, plus carpooling with christy rocks.

today i made soap: edition 2. more care, more love, less pain, more cinnamon. all in all hopefully better then the first edition.

also, yesterday a family reunion of sorts with Wendy, Nicks mom in town. My mother's cousin... my 2nd cousin? anyway, another BC realitive who lives in chiliwack. It was a good time and we're trying to organize a trip to see the Sound of Music this week.:)

shite, i'm late.
adios

the basement blues.

Well...
Today was a long and rather uneventful day. I spent the better half of it shacked up in the basement creating my latest sewing project. I have debated posting picutres of it, but seeing as it will become one of many homemade xmas gifts i think it's best that i keep it under wraps.

At the gm today i thought about my photography... or lack thereof. I got outside and took some pictures today just ahead of that and it really got me thinking. Tomorrow i'm going to try and take some more. There is a plethora of interesting set-up opportunities these days since every inch of the lawn is covered in fallen leaves. I wish i had more people around to take photos of, but i've decided that my jewelry is my next best thing. Jewelry in the leaves. whoot. Then a few of my dresses in our old grape vine trellis. we shall see how that turns out. ;)

ps. tv sucks. i've become addicted and i dont like it. I"m at the point that i'm thinking about TV all the time. I'm channeling Pavlov's dog and as soon as i make myself a meal the inclination to watch tv is simultaneous... it's not good. I wish i had another person around for crafting, it seriously makes it easier to concentrate when there's a little bit of distraction. :) ahhh, ADD generation.

blah blah workin' for a livin'

My bro's GF makes the best meals.
and I hear he cleans up real nice.

Delicious food chez John and Krista tonight with mom and dad.... after a short day's work on KK.

A weird shoot, somehow I didn't feel the best about it. Perhaps it's just the anxiety of the show almost being over, or something.
I suppose once i see it cut together i'll feel better about it. Ha, that and the several months from now THAT'll happen.

it was 20 freaking degrees out today. So shooting outside was very pleasant. november 6th and I didnt' even need a jacket.

I'm kinda obsessed with this random music by a random Burington dude named Kirby. I keep listening over and over. i guess i'm overdue for something 'new' . Even more coinsidental is that his video was shot by Devon and Robs Co. Who whouldda thought. it's such a small world.

back to el' craft table.
