I'm STILL a self confessing, self professing know-it-all, or so I think!

I’ve become so numb I can’t feel you there

I’m tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don’t know what you’re expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

I’m becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Duck Pancakes!!

Finally getting around to blogging about Tiffany K‘s Duck Pancakes – pulled BBQ duck, a heaping helping of blueberry compote, and a huge scoop of creamy chèvre piled high on fresh flapjacks (I know, sounds SO decadently good!) from our initial brunch outing in November 2011 at Barque Smokehouse on Roncesvalles. Hey, better late than never, ‘sides, ain’t as if yer payin’ a pretty penny for the quality of my work … so no complainin’, lol. Found this pic, actually two pics – two perspectives … take a look! Neat!

Special Chimay!!

Chimay Spéciale Cent Cinquante … it’s a limited edition Chimay, commemorating their 150th anniversary …. and it’s VERY hard to come by … my LCBO app has been working overtime checking for availability/locations. Picked up a couple of bottles the day it was released to the public (a mere 60 bottles for all of Ontario) … have a HUGE Chimay crush of late, if ya hadn’t noticed, lol!!

RunKeeper

Downloaded this app last week, and this was a trial walk (not run) … a brisk walk. Great app, very useful and helpful. Here’s my results minus the route GPSed … wouldn’t want any fellow bloggers banging down my door.

back in the day, no one gave a flying fuck

Was a time when I’d say shit loud ‘n proud … back in the day when nobody cared or noticed. And by back in the day, am referring to the late 70’s to the mid 80’s … spewing “that’s retarded” or “that’s gay” was commonplace … flowing freely from my mouth like the River Jordan, AND I never thought twice ’bout saying it … NOW, in this-twisted-2013-weird-world-am-warily-politically-correct-of-these-words, these phrases out in public. First, I survey with my eyes making sure no one’s within earshot before speaking, like I’m breaking the law if caught. Is only a figure of speech folks so simmer down! No harm intended, not meant as an attack … personally, or towards ANY group … NEVER thought one day I’d be sitting dissecting the fuck outta it either?! Much ado about nothing!

Jesus Christ, why don’t you come save my life now?

Choices always were a problem for you
What you need is someone strong to guide you
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
What you need is someone strong to guide you
like me, like me, like me, like me

If you want to get your soul to heaven
Trust in me now you don’t judge or question
You are broken now but faith can heal you
Just do everything I tell you to do

Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
What you need is someone strong to guide you
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow
Let me lay my holy hand upon you

My Gods will becomes me
When he speaks he speaks through me
He has needs like I do
We both want to rape you

burning my cathedrals ’cause I don’t pray anymore

look at all of these people, tragic little people

this is where I draw a line, I will draw my line
this is where I blur my line, I will blur my line
this is where I cross my line, I am crossing my line

Godzilla, no shit!!

Driving the other night on the 401, a grey Nissan GT-R flew by … he was three lanes over, and when he gunned it, I said, “there goes Godzilla” … we kept jockeying back and forth, separated by those lanes, but I always had him in my sights. Ten minutes later, and many kilometres too, he came up beside me in the adjacent lane, and I couldn’t fucking believe it … it ACTUALLY was Godzilla … the plate read GODZILLA … it was then I lost him, or so I thought, but further down the highway, I caught up, and came up behind. Now, I know this picture is blurry, and the glare of the flash hitting the windscreen filtering it even more doesn’t help (sidenote: as I clicked, the flash delay, I mean realizing it was going to flash, freaked me and my hand wavered, it was almost like I wanted to put my phone down, not wanting to be seen snapping a pic, lol), but THAT’S Godzilla, no shit!!

burning the midnight oil!

… after midnight, we’re gonna let it all hang down … they call me the midnight rambler … all I know is I just got home, it’s well past midnight, it’s been a LONG day … I’m tired as fuck, yet here I blog. Snapped this tonight, edited it on a few apps, think I have half a dozen versions … but something about photoshopping making me look like shit appeals to me. I think it’s my new favourite pic!!
