cat attack

I'm in a bad mood so I think I'm needing a Kittie fix right now. (Hoping this will get me out of my funk). Enjoy the amazingness that is kitties!

Aren't they all just dreamy??

Seeing Red

So I want to paint my living room red. I know it's a hard colour to go about, in terms of making sure you get the right shade, but I just really want my living room to be warm and cozy. Right now it's painted a very pale, very cold feeling, purpley/grayish colour, and it just feels so cold and empty. I want to walk into the room and feel like it's warmer and cozier and comfortable. See, here's the thing. I only have one window in there and it doesn't get any light during the day, the only time there really is any light that gets to it is in the evening when the sun is setting (on those rarer and rarer sunny days). So there in lies the problem. Am I going to be making a mistake by making it feel small and in closed? Or will it have the effect that I want, warm and cozy?

summer lovin'

So I was sitting here at work and thinking about the summer, you know, since we're at the end of September and it seems to be getting colder and colder lately. And you know what? I had a pretty fantastic summer! I got to go camping with some work peeps (which was a blast), I got to then go camping again at my parents cottage on probably the hottest weekend we had all summer, you know you really can't beat swimming in the ocean for hours! Also I think I've seen my sister Laura Mae, who's an actress based out of Toronto, the most this summer than I have in total in the last 3 years. So all in all it was pretty fantastic. This is not to say that I'm not looking forward to the winter though too. Snowy days/nights? It really doesn't get much better than that. I gotta say I love living in Nova Scotia because of all the seasons!!

my bathroom!

So this is my bathroom. Yeah, I know, I'm really opening myself up here, but I wanted to show you the travesty that is my house. I know that there really isn't anything that I can do to change it, it's just plain old small.
The only thing that I can do is dream, right? So this is mine, hey, check out that super small sink in there?! I know, riiight, it's from a trailer or something. SUPER SMALL!
ps that's my little Miss Willow cat sneaking in for a drink in the tub. C. doesn't like the kitties in the bathroom, I on the other hand am indifferent.

This is the smallest bathroom sink I've ever seen. I'm pretty sure that when I went to Florida when I was 17 and stayed with my Aunt and Uncle in there camper (huge trailer) that thier sink was bigger :) HAHAHA Oh yeah, the windows are complete with bars for burglars. I sort of live in the ghetto.

This is the from the doorway, when sitting on the toilet, you can't close the door. You have to walk into the washroom, turn around, close the door, then sit down.

Black Rooms

So I'm trying to decide on clolors for painting my bedroom. I've been going back and forth between a dark grey, black, and purple. When I first mentioned to C. about painting it black, she was a little put off, but I'm thinking I'm leaning more and more towards it now though. Here are some prime examples of how beautiful a dark bedroom can be.

must see tv night

I've been waiting for tonight for what seems like ever! GREY'S ANATOMY is on!!! I can't wait. 45 minutes and counting. Survivor will have to help me pass the time. Ahhhh, tv. I admit it, I'm a television whore and I'm not ashamed either.
