Oeuf

In my perfect world, everyone would wear these amazing mask and tail sets from Oeuf. I think the racoon one is my favourite.. which one would you wear if I forced you to?

Facebook Fools

A great discovery from my new favourite website, Passive Aggressive Notes.

Let this serve as a warning to everyone - be careful, Big Brother and all his friends are watching!

Signage

After this note appeared on the toilet seat at work, I got to thinking about the notes and signs that people make to avoid having awkward conversations. Obviously, the fact that someone would tape a sign to the bottom of a public toilet seat is amazing in itself, however I understand the desire to avoid confrontation in the workplace. So I trolled around looking for photos of similar signage, and I realized that this toilet seat was nothing in comparison to the ones I found... and that scares me...

(This one is from a hospital...you would be amazed by the number of booger notes I found, this one being my favourite because it was a whole wall, and not an isolated incident. And having a good friend who dated a serial booger wiper, I can appreciate the trauma and the necessity to leave a passive aggressive note.)

(Ok so a lot of this is disturbing, but boils??? EAR DISCHARGE??? Blecccchhhh)

(Uhmmmm.....)

(8:42, the perfect time for non-banana pastries....)


(Wow, really? Really people??!!)

(Umm, check, check, is this thing on? Anyone? Anyone?)

Twitter

I don't pretend to understand Twitter. I'm still trying to come to terms with cell phones and having people reach you all the time, let alone people knowing when you're drinking coffee or taking a crap. That being said, this is brilliant.

Justin is 28 and lives with his 73 year old dad. Justin Twitters the everyday stuff that his dad says. It's funny and worth checking out if you need a laugh today.

Ummm...

Must. Watch. This. It's only 41 seconds so you have no excuse. I'm all at once amazed, bewildered, confused, scared, and trying not to laugh.

(It's been pointed out to me that some of you don't understand what's going on, so I will just tell you. The man singing gets his mic stand knocked into him and he swallows the mic. True story. Now watch it!)

Where I Will Not Be Trick or Treating...

This house is down the street from ours. They say that a picture's worth a thousand words, so I will say no more. Except that it's even scarier at night cause it's all lit up. That's it.

In Da Hood

I love my neighborhood. There are so many interesting people, places and I'm always finding new and often bizarre things that make me smile. I've been wanting to take photos of my favorite neighborhood sights for a while, and today was the perfect day.

I knew it was meant to be when I walked past a house that has a lawnmower in the driveway with a sign on it that said "R.I.P. 1977 - 2009". I love it! Sadly, the mower was gone when I returned a few hours later with my camera, but I did get some other great shots. Enjoy!

I've always wanted to go to a Garag Sale!

I loooooove this house! The photo doesn't bring justice to the great bright blue color, and the gorgeous red flowers, but you get the idea...

I am in awe of the people who did this. No yard? No problem! I love a makeshift garden! Totally random and totally awesome.

Everyone's favorite is the "Color Tats, Pro $25" - not a great photo and definitely something you have to see to fully appreciate. I really hope no one is actually getting inked there, based entirely on the artwork of the sign.

And lastly, the musical fence. Should we do a white picket, chainlink or wooden slats? No, scrap that - let's do music instead!

I loooooooove this neighborhood!

Toronto Life

How much do I love the cover of Toronto Life? It's my poster! And the article is great so it's a double bonus - definitely worth the price at the grocery store.

The Baltic States

I've been wanting to check out the Baltic States for a long time. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, located in Northern Europe have always drawn me in as a special place to visit. Not exactly the kind of place to visit if you're hoping to work on your tan, but loads of culture, history and great architecture. I want to go there!
