Damn people, where did you come from?

So, I took a much needed sanity break from blogging over the holidays. I still haven’t caught up with email and won’t do that until tomorrow. I did post about a lot of sales for boxing day. I checked my stats today and the traffic was ridiculous from Dec 24 – 26. An average of 3,642 unique visitors each day hit this site. Insane! I’m amazed it didn’t go down, thank you Dreamhost, you rock. Thanks to Redflagdeals for the link love. It was a major contributor.

i got, Boxing Day edition

Boxing Day sucked, IMO. I did manage to get some strategic items like Curry Cashews from Holt’s. For the most part everything was the same price. I looking high and low for tall flat black boots and was denied everywhere. If I did find something, it was too big, ill fitting, or just plain crap. I’m going to try the Zola’s warehouse sale for some boots. I did find some things on the 27th at Girl Friday where everything was 50% off. I got 2 nice waist belts from Toronto company Brave Leather. I only have a picture of one, and it’s white and not silver. The other is black with embroidered elastic connecting the leather ends. I also picked up a cute houndstooth tshirt from Engine9

Project Runway Canada – Finale

I’m kinda disappointed that I didn’t call the winner of PRC way, way ahead of time. There were so many hints. Now that the media embargo is finished I can talk about the runway show. My choices for the top 3 were wrong by 1. I thought Stephen Wong was one of the top 3. Let me tell you the applause track they added to the finalist’s runway shows was laughable, completely laughable. I don’t know why it was necessary and it cheapened the whole thing. I was surprised that they used the Biddell/Lucian war to the bitter end. In hindsight I should have realized that they would milk it for all it’s worth. I laughed my ass of when Rita started crying over Lucian’s collection. It was beautiful, not really my style, but beautiful none the less, and it’s only clothing in the end. To me PRC totally followed the American model down to their “Rock and roll and edgy” young designer. He reminds me of Jay. Hopefully Biddell will have an easier time …

A Pod Bed for my cats The Pod offers the security of a mountaintop cave with way more style. It serves as your pet’s own personal sanctuary – a perfect place for curling up to snooze, hide, or reign supreme. This is a great little hiding/sleeping spot for the kitties.
