Please Don't Gouge Your Eyes Out Out of Boredom After Reading This Post.

I feel supremely accomplished today.

I

- finished painting the main interior ('Celestial Lyndhurst').
- picked out the stainless steel tables with which to create our fresh and sleek wainscoted cashwrap and condiment bar.
- caught up on ugly QuickBooks inputting.
- picked up the Interceptor and Frontline from the vet.
- got on the ball with insurances for Deuce.
- ate three gigunda maki(s?) from the El Cheapo Sushi Joint.
- unloaded the dishwasher.

Believe me, if I actually had something interesting to report, I would. I'm not holding back for the sake of salivation/anticipation/being evil.

The Best Part Is that It's All Tax Deductible.

omg I am having so much fun!

This morning I took Ernie to Bonejour and I found this effin' adorable Orla Kiely knock-off dog collar*.

I was so inspired, I bought a new laptop bag.

And since I was on a roll, I bought a bunch of interesting "Canary-related art" that will go on one particular wall of Deuce!





Oh Etsy! I love you!

*OK, the dog collar was BY NO MEANS tax deductible.

Odd Yet True. (And You Thought Four Celebrities Dying in a Week was Weird.)

This morning in the car, SFG said that if I came across the bag of human hair whilst rifling through the trunk, I could throw it out. Rabbits do not like human hair. Eco-tip! They won't touch your garden if you spread it around. I can't say I'm particularly fond of human hair myself. Especially when it is your neighbors' hair from the salon down the street. Or on a piece of soap.

Fight at the Circus today! A pickpocket slugged a guy in the face! Ok, that's not so weird for the Circus, but it's unusual generally speaking.

I Should Play the Lottery...?

Lease is signed! I am committed. It is so freakin' exciting!! Designer M and I took some serious measurements today which means I can submit my application to the health department this week. Gotta get this ball rolling! Yippeeeee!

AND

Rachael Ray's people called me yesterday. One of our brownies is going to be featured in the Best of section of the December issue of the magazine! Let's hope there's no stealing of ideas, unlike some other celebrity chefs and they're unethical methods. Check out You-Know-Who's new cupcake book for some really nice, though credit-less photos of some of The Canary's cupcakes.

This is too much goodness in one day. Now who's gonna die?

Much to Do About Everything.

Ta daa!



Isn't it cute?

The current outdoor space will become an indoor addition within 6 months' time. Yes, that is a community garden right next door.

Lease will be signed and sealed within the next two weeks, godspeed. I've already got anthro-designer friend on the ball with regard to the decor. Oh, it's going to be cute. It is really and truly a dream come true. Ho-lee Krakau!

Yesterday Was Just This Kind of Day.

Last night we tore the place apart trying to find a bag of money that the carpet cleaner appears to have stolen. Then Ernie pooped on the rug. It was sort of a twisted version of Gift of the Magi.
