Do you like my new cow skull? It’s hung in the living room over the couch. I painted it so it would look less like it belongs on a ranch, but I’m not sure my Harlequin-inspired makeover was actually much of an improvement. Could I have picked a worse colour scheme? It looks as though Easter threw up on it. It would look fantastic in a nursery though. Maybe I’ll hang it over the puppy’s bed when I get him in the fall. Of course it might give him little puppy-sized nightmares…
A hot babe in a state of partial undress has the favorable effect of distracting the eye from my latest failure in interior decoration though, non?

My mother is obliged to send me fanmail because she’s my mother. I love how that works! Check out this gem:
“Blimey! These muscles are really popping out! Don’t hurt yourself, wee one!”
“Wee one” isn’t a very badass nickname but I still appreciate the sentiment. It’s the thought that counts and all that. (I just Googled “badass” because I wasn’t sure if a hyphen belongs in the middle and one of the top results was this list of badass Bible verses. I love the Internet.) My friends are pretty good about humoring me by telling me I look jacked too. Thanks guys!
But yesterday was a big day! I got fanmail from a musclegirl enthusiast — a complete stranger with no obligation to be nice and encouraging. Amazing! Did I mention that I love the Internet?
Today was a big day too. I’ve been growing my hair out from a buzz cut for six months and this afternoon I got my first real hairstyle in a long time! Compliments are welcome from friends and strangers alike! (Why yes, I did just file a post with a picture of myself under the “beauty” tag. Zing!)

In mid-December, amidst the hustle and bustle of the end of the term and the holiday season, I wedged in a photoshoot for Jae Jae La Designs. Such beautiful jewelry! My Christmas wish list got a whole lot longer. Amalie Russell did the hair and makeup — all the girls looked flawless! The beautiful vintage bridal gowns were lent to us courtesy of Vintage Bride in Toronto. It was a long day, but everyone had a blast! Here are some of my favourites.
