WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND

So I go to future shop today, because they are moving stores and are clearing out models that will not be at their new store. I go to look for a new palm. I don't need anything great cause I had two that were top of the line and I broke them. Crap. Just because I love electronics doesn't mean that I don't break them. anyways so there is the palm zire there for 79 bucks! Wicked, that baby was 300 last xmas, then went down to 200 hundred this year. So there is this guy standing in front of me who is also interested in the palm. A sales associate who is not from that department tells us that he thinks it's only for the display model. the guy in front of me complains that he wants one new in a box. So I tell him that if he is not interested in it then I will take it. So finally a guy from that department domes over. He tells the guy that it's for the enitre zire line. My eyes seriously lit up! wow. Then the dude says I will take all that you have plus the display model. (3 of them in total) So I look and the guy and say "you've got to be kidding me!" He says sorry to me, and I am so furious at him that I look him straight in the eye and tell him, no problem it's christmas, i'm sure what goes around will come around. I'm doing my best to curse his karma. Anywyas I leave go to my Dortor appointment and then get an idea. I called the store to see if the guy bought the display model. The kid on the phone tells me that it is still there. So I tell him that I will be down within the hour to pick it up. I give him my name, he tells me he can't put it on hold, but he will see what he can do. So I get there right as this guy is buying it. God....Why did my luck turn out so bad? Maybe my karma isn't so good afterall. The only good thing that can come out of this is that I can now put in for the palm I really want...which unfortunately is going to cost my husband 3.5 time more than the one today would have cost. Damn these men....What happened to ladies first?

Funny what A little bit of partying can do




So for weeks I have felt like crap...go figure. Musical theatre is almost over!yay!! And now I am hearing from all sorts of people that they think my husband is wonderful, a marvelous singer and sexy. What?!? He plays this pittiful duped husband and people think that's sexy? So then I was thinking it's time to step up my game and not be in sweats everytime he comes fome from the theatre. Easier said than done. So we have friends come down from Calgary...and Voila! I am feeling like my old self again. A little bit of whiskey and karaoke (sweet caroline) and of course being surrounded by people who loved you even when you were the lowest can make you vibrant. (oh yeah plus the new hair helps) But it is all in the attitude. And no matter how young and bendy these girls in the show may be, I can be happy with the fact that there is no way they will ever be as slutty as me...(in that wifey sort of way) Now if only I could muster up the energy to clean the house!

So we are totally grooving along and into The Fly and the words "Everything you know is wrong" come up on the video curtains and my 3yr old yells out "YEAH ABC'S!!!" and starts to cheer I think he may be ready for his first concert next tour. Anyways so I tcuk them into bed. They share a room and my 3yr old wants a song. My daughter(7Yrs old) starts to sing...I waited patiently for the Lord...and i almost could have cried...She was singing 40...what a touching way to say goodnight. So we sang 40 and as I closed the door tonight she was still singing...how awesome is my daughter?!!

Muffin Top

Okay so I'm watching much on demand and one of the vj's mentions the infamous "muffin top" That is the sprout of skin above the waistband of your low riders. That totally cracked me up//so true! So I'm scouting out halloween costumes last weekend and the girl beside me has one. Well i shouldn't say one...her entire muffin was hanging out. And I'm thinking...dude..do you realize that i can almost see the bottom of your boobs from under that shirt. I mean come on she is at least 30. At some point you have to realize that the clothes meant for 16-22 year olds are just that---MADE FOR PEPLE BETWEEN THE AGE OF 16-22! It just made me feel sad for woman kind. There are so many things that look so good on woman our age that we can pull off because we are older more sexually mature woman and we should know by now how to dress and use our bodies to their full extent. There are so many things that we can pull off that just look stupid on someone who's younger. I'm not just talking about the naked thing with the pearls and heels, even though I will admit that was one of the first things that popped into my mind. Come on ladies....we need to start showing so class out on the streets. Look at sex in the city. Those ladies are dressed very well and sexy for their age. I know, I know, we all don't have the money for those designer outfits or Jimmy Choos, but with a little creativity and some knowledge of your own womanhood you can look just as great without showing everyone your muffin!

Am I a Pussy?

I am a pussy?
So I am archiving old home movies to dvd tonight, and I'm watching myself as a vibrant 18yr old and wondering what the fuck happened to me? The girl on camera was beautiful, but not only that so confident and brave about showing her real side and embracing what life had to offer at that moment. I think at this point if you have really changed since then like i have you have to stop and wonder....when did i become such a pussy? Okay so I am almost 30. So fucking what? Well for some stupid reason it really bothers me. I don't want to get older. I want to be that same girl who was dared to flash so and so and did it, just because. And that's not my only example. My job, I would love to move on a get my degree, but I'm scared because i worry about making the wrong choice. So what if I do? Why aren't I going back to school? Why do I stay with a Job that I hate, and not do something that I think I may like. God forbid if anyone should hear that i failed? When you are young like that and pull that shit people excuse the behaviour cause you are young. So if I did it now, no one would excuse it. If I did half of the things i wanted to just because i felt like that (at my age) I would seem like a really immature, insecure adult. Who the f**k changed the rules on me? There are so many parts of me that so wish they could be free without being judged but that's not the case. So for now I guess i will continue to go with the flow and forever not do the things i really want to do for fear that the general public will judge what i do and dissapove....for now I will be that pussy.

About Me

My photo
I started taking pictures of my kids when I started scrapbooking. I really wanted my pages and pictures to look like the sample ones in the scrapbooking magazines. It took a lot of hard work, researching, learning and a few hundred roles of film but I got the results that I wanted. Portraiture quickly became a passionate hobby. Finally, in February 2007 I opened Madchen Studios. The studio has become the perfect outlet to feed my obbesion with perfect photographs.
