It’s looking better although it’s got a long way to go before I’ll feel normal. It actually reminds me of my childhood, was there a time when I didn’t have some major scab action happening? Shannon can’t see the bruising irl but I sure can. No, I didn’t fiddle the colour in this picture, just […]

Proof.
By Caitlin Jane in friends, love, Old crapI’ve always been this cool. And here’s how you can tell: I went to see The Who in 1989 when I was 17. It was at the CNE when the Grandstand was still open, that’s where the Blue Jays played before the Skydome opened. It was an amazing place for concerts, it’s also where I […]
But just a bit
By Caitlin Jane in clothes, fucking weird man, we have funI went to Niagara Falls, NY on Thursday. My mom took me cross border shopping, it was great. Got some alsome scores at my beloved Target (I mean, 100 antihistamines for just over $4? Heck yes!) and we had lunch at a sweet restaurant called “Mom’s”. See? For Mother’s Day? Haha, right? The joke was […]
Latest project
By Caitlin Jane in crochet, making stuff is goodI decided to use up my scraps from my original sampler quilt to do an English paper piecing project. It’s a lot of cutting, pinning, cutting, basting, organizing and sewing. And it’s double the amount of basting for me because-guess what!-I don’t like to read instructions and did them totally wrong. It’s tiny, that whole […]
Ow. Sigh.
By Caitlin Jane in Griping, we have funSo my first time out on my xmas roller skates was a complete disaster. Our alley/driveway is extremely rustic: It may as well be a gravel road. And I should have known better, I should have walked to the end of it and THEN put on my skates, but no, I was feeling ambitious. And […]
For Libs mostly
By Caitlin Jane in friendsDid you know that they have cool Vivienne Westwood glasses at Walmart? I like the clear/black ones at the bottom of the first picture. And the red frames in the middle. They’re locked down in the store so you can’t actually try them on without asking for help. Sorry for the blur.
It’s not yet, but almost
By Caitlin Jane in clothes, friends, loveEven though I have another week until I turn 38 (THIRTY-FUCKING-EIGHT-ZOMG!!!?!1) I’ve gotten lots of birthday love so far. Not just the most incredible (and apparently jealous making in some) car in the world, but a stunning necklace from Ashley. And some beautiful lamp work beads that I need to figure out what to do […]
Fun for all
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, Art!, friends, we have funIt’s exciting when a new tattoo shop opens, especially when there is free beer involved. Oh, and sushi and vegan cupcakes-not that I ate any of those. Bill Baker has finally opened the doors to his new place, The Pearl Harbor Gift Shop and Tattoos. It’s a catchy name, I know. And they’ve done an […]
Just plain glorious
By Caitlin Jane in UncategorizedI met up with the glorious and free Ms Duncan today for some hot protest action. It’s so rare that we see each other so it’s always a delight, especially when she brings along little miss MangO. Which I found out is not pronounced like the fruit, it’s more like how you’d say ‘mang’ and […]
Happy (early) birthday to me
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, love, we have funI was not expecting this, especially considering I don’t even drive. At all. Not even G1. Very exciting, indeed. It’s 1973 Mustang and it’s pretty much huge. My first whip. Thanks and love to Shannon, who else?
