the more we get together, the happier we'll be

"For your friends are my fiends and my friends are your friends" and #genyTO meetup's are a great way to get together! Yes, Raffi.

It was really awesome to see many familiar and new faces. I met some tres cool people and have lots of pix that I will add to the #genyto group on FB later this weekend.This month's meetup was at Andy Pool Hall. Must say I'm sorry that some of my stickers got 'stuck' on the pool hall and not just on peoples clothes etc. I won't be going back there with this a haircut. I recieved a nasty email today from Andy's that went something like "your f***in stickers, what the f**k ". Sheesh, sorry guise. Don't have to be so mean about it.

I had a blast dancing, it's abviously a really classy place. I wasn't quite having as much fun as barefoot lady. She went all out! For real.

I'm really excited to be part of this growing group of wired, creative, motivated young people. Seeing the growth from the first #genyto in February to last night's April meetup has been really cool. I've met some of the most inspiring & fun people ever.

Hope to see heaps of you out at #pibTO today 1pm, Second Cup @ 307 Queen Street and John Street! 100% of the proceeds go to SickKids so bring your travel mug and get in line!

Sorry about Your Career

interest in spying on people engaged in behaviors

So nice out yesterday. I could have let the day last forever. Today too. I like it hot. They were talking about mozzies while we were sitting in the grass and I was like 'no, what mosquitos? I don't feel them'. Biggest loser. Today I'm scratchy-mc-scratcherton.

The baddest bikes around. Pete was having a one night stand with this one and testing it out. Cervelo got the green jerz in Tour de France and they're partying this week. Picture makes me giggle cause the leg looks kinda like the bike to me.

I was in friend heaven last night hugging everyone so tight. I missed you guys! I haven't seen so many favorite faces all together for a while. I met some cool new people and my purse is full of business cards. Lost my keys but my glasses have been located.

Pretty much everyone in the joint tweets. I met two people that were don't, how weird. Follow @pinkbrickroad and @dariusbashar, they're cool kids. Patio was beau-teeeee-ful. Fun, sun, friends, beer, music, like OMG can it get any better.

Then I met this guy who is nice (sorry I forgot your name) and we chatted but he had something to say, he doesn't get my blog. Like really, what is the point? Um, well, ah....it started because I wanted to remember stuff better and I was bored and I like writing. Now, people read it and like it and some people even say I'm inspiring. How cool is THAT! Me thanks Mum and Daddio for inspiring me.

My stickers are always a hit. I make stickers because I think it's better than a business card at this kind of thing. They get stuck on peoples clothes and name tags and they wear them around proudly. You can't wear a business card around and look as cool as you do with a sticker. Plus, at the end of the night you have the sticker with my URL and Twitter making me easy to find. Plus, the picure makes it hard to forget my pretty little face. Ha!! Two points for me.
We all tuned in to hear the exciting news that Redwire is now Sprouter , "an application facilitating real-time discussion and networking". Their next step in their mission "to provide exceptional tools for start up founders." Just as I was listening in the door came Toronto bloggers Ad Girl and Tech Nerd.

Darius though it was really funny to pretend to toss my baby Bobby laptop around. haha, as in not funny! Darius runs the social network of do-googers Daily Challenge. I've worked with them on a few great events over the last year and I also won my little blue steel camera in a Daily Challenge contest. Yahooo! I do good.

It was a busy day and all the beer fun has left me a little tired today. I'd like to be laying in the grass floating in pool with my sunnies on. Oh, remember when I was all gung-ho about Sobey's opening next door and being 24 hours? I set up a Twitter account cause I thought it would be funny to say what was happening there in the wee hours of the morning etc. Well it's not 24 hours but they DO want the Twitter account. Badass.

sometimes i think i'm so cool

I've been going through my old hard drive and I've managed to dig up some jems from years ago when I used to go out 'clubbing'. In this one my friend is smoking a dube. haha. They used to allow smoking inside back then, lots of cigarettes in this photo. Sorry Mum.

Moxie Halloween. That's my old lady mask. It rules. Dad used to wear it when he took us trick or treating. It is so old and scary. It looks real and totally freaks people out. My costume was an 'old sexy bag' my shirt said that on the back, I made it. It was right when 'Sexy Back' came out.
Moxie Promotions Princess party: We all wore crowns and big puffy skirts. It was really fun. My hair was so long. This is Hannah. She is also the Power Ranger.
What kinda outfit is this? Fishnets under bathing suit? Nice real nice. Pretty cool when you go to the Guvernment in 2005.
I hope you will enjoy these guys like I did. Don't be shy on the comments. I know I had a few!!

just one more day ♥

Sorry about your Grandma Barry.

"She was somebody who was a very humble person and a very plain-spoken person,'' he said.

"She was one of those quiet heroes that we have all across America. They're not famous. Their names aren't in the newspapers,'' Obama said.

"But each and every day they work hard. They look after their families.

They sacrifice for their children and their grandchildren. They aren't seeking the limelight. All they try to do is just do the right thing.

"And in this crowd there are a lot of quiet heroes like that, mothers and fathers, grandparents who have worked hard and sacrificed all their lives,'' drawing satisfaction from the hope of a better life for their own offspring.

"That's what America is about,'' Obama exclaimed, his voice rising to a shout as the crowd responded with a roar.

"That's what we're fighting for. And North Carolina, in just one more day, we have the opportunity to honour all those quiet heroes all across America and all across North Carolina,'' he said.

"We can bring change to America to make sure that their work and their sacrifice is honoured. That's what we're fighting for.'' From the Sydney Morning Herald

He's such a hero.
