I can't live without music.

Photos

I'm far from a pro, but I love taking photos.

I vlog

Have a look at my videos. My accent gets all sorts of messed up on them.

Deny, Deny, Deny

Who cries at IKEA? Not me, no way. Well, maybe a little. It's a good cry though if there's such a thing. I'm here because I get to choose whatever I want to decorate my new place and that's an amazing feeling - but it's also sad as I'm moving on and a part of my life is ending.

So ignore the chick with the red eyes. She's OK. It's a good cry. It's totally not me anyhow, she's some other Aussie bird that just looks like me.

Pure Speculation


Today we made an important step forward in the Michael Lee Rhodes mystery as a source discovered more about the sign maker who desperately wants MLR to be freed.


"Just did a drive by of the RV. Will post photos soon. He has a mailbox on the RV with a sign for $40. Not sure if he's selling it for 40 or if he's willing to mail a letter to god for 40. Also previously had a book for sale for a million bucks to cure diseases through god."

"...by the police mafia" is sort of new and made me think, is Michael Lee Rhodes trapped at Pitchess? Pitchess Detention Center is the local jail up over there on the 5 and it's not really on a mountain but there are police there. Or is he at Magic Mountain as there is a police station right there up in front.



Oh screw it, I thought. I'll just go and get video of the crazy, because that's the sort of stupid stuff I do. Oh and I'll also do it after a weekend with little sleep and without makeup AND I'll put my face on camera because that's how much I'll take one for the team, Yeah, you're welcome. 


I have absolutely no idea and I'm completely guessing but the mystery surrounding this is interesting and yes, I'm fascinated. 
I know that the sign poster clearly has issues but there has to be something behind the signs and I have to know - and I'm also not the only one who is intrigued by the signs. There is a facebook group that has been created and daily FB chatter speculating what the whole thing is about. Is it obvious the place where we live is inherently boring? Oh wait, my bad - it's Awesometown. *smh*

Halloween 2011 Costume

Perfect.


I still need to make her bag and get some boots but not too shabby for an afternoon of rummaging


I could try it on to show you but I won't so you'll just have to wait. 

Halloween 2011 = Ramona Flowers (From Scott Pilgrim)


Whoring Out For Halloween

A few years ago I forked over about $70 for the evil queen from Snow White and last year it cost about the same to be Coraline. One year evil, the next year cute but this year...


This year I have no idea who I am going to be for Halloween as it's going to be a whole different experience. This year I'll actually be going to a few parties and I'll also be going as someone who is 'single'. My mind is spinning as there seems to be a few basic ideas when it comes to Halloween costumes for adults, and I had never really paid any attention in the past.

1. Be a storybook character.
2. Be a funny character.
3. Be a career character.
4. Be a scary character.

Then make the dresses really short or really tight, push up your boobs and look like a whore.

When I say whore I mean it in the fondest way as it's not every day women get to wear the costumes they wear in the bedroom outside the bedroom to show off their goods. But do I want to be one of those chicks? I was jokingly told that it was a requirement to wear a sexy costume at one of the parties but how sexy do I want to go? I don't really want to be the "Hey, it's OK. You can all look at me in that way now because I'm getting divorced!" chick or is the attention a good thing for the ego? I was told I would be a hot Snow White.

Choosing a costume in itself is hard. I guess you want to be sexy but original - and when I say you, I mean me. I can think of nothing worse on Halloween than being the less hot of the two vampires in the room.  This morning I looked online at costumes and I have no bloody idea who or what to dress as. There are literally hundreds of choices. One day I will go as Wonder Woman as that would be cool. Should I just go as an Angry Bird? What about a zombie cheerleader - sort of fitting as I am terrified of both zombies and cheerleaders.  As I spend hours looking online at costumes I will be content in lounging around in my PJs. They sadly don't fall into any of the categories for the parties but are comfy nonetheless - something the sexy costumes won't be. Better start looking for my corset.


Happy start of October! Happy soon to be Halloween!

Curiouser and Curiouser

Now Ivy Gibbs is stuck somewhere too and she WANTS TO GO HOME!
And there's mafia! 
And there's glitter! 
And unicorns! (Always unicorns)



Now there are two people; one of which is stuck on a mountain and the other is just AWOL. 
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, please read about Michael Lee Rhodes and how he is trapped on the mountain. In the meantime over on Facebook we continue to speculate:


And then BINGO, we had a spotting of the sign maker. (please excuse my dodgy Corel work)






So we know who the sign maker is, sort of. We know what he looks like and someone has told me that they know where he lives and that he puts signs all over that area too. The whole thing just intrigues me and now even Jeff over at SCVTalk is getting into the mix of writing about the insanity...

...did I mention Michael Lee Rhodes friended me on FB this morning? 

More to come.
