Stuff for Sale

Hey, I have a washer and dryer for sale right now on UsedVictoria and Craigslist. It's listed at $550 but the pair can be yours for $425 just for reading my blog! We can deliver if necessary to anywhere within the greater Victoria area. Not Sooke or Sidney, that's just crazy. The washer and dryer are almost new and in great shape. We just don't have laundry hookups in our new place yet and when we do I think we're going to go for stackables. Let me know if you're interested. Peace!

Friday Night Live

So tonight was Seek Cover 2 at the Project art space on Fisgard which I previously didn't know existed. It was a very cool space and a very enjoyable night and Missie and I fully rocked out the stage! I was pretty impressed with us considering we just wrote the piece two days ago and hadn't had a lot of rehearsal time. We performed Dan Leaman's "All that is left" and a response to it and it seemed to go over really well. One of these times I'll actually get a performance videotaped so y'all can see it first hand. If you missed it you can see us performing with the slam team at the Solstice Festival for the Folk on Friday the 27th at Solstice.

Last night I photographed the improv show which was a lot of fun. It was featuring Narobov, one of Slovenia's leading improvisational groups. They were fantastic as were the impromaniacs as usual. Here are a few photos from the show.

The statue game.

Our friend Dave Morris was out from North Van for the show and he brought me presents of his new book of monster poetry and a disc of his recorded tracks. The boy is a super talented spoken word artist even though he does not identify himself as such. Click on the link above to check out his myspace band in particular the track "soft eyes" which I really love.

Here are a few new photos of me from a little photoshoot with Brittney. You can read a more detailed post on this with more photos on my Bettie Boudoir blog.

New blog!

Hey guys! I have a new blog for my photography. My personal blog will still be here but if you want to keep up with my photographic adventures. Check it out!

Ok...mega blog update. I have neglected you and for that I am sorry. Hmm...first of all at Shannon's request: a raw food update.

Well, we made it through our raw food adventure. I lost 10 pounds and was feeling amazing but when I tasted that Thai curry for our first cooked meal I almost cried it tasted so good. Our plan was to keep eating a good amount of raw food but to be honest, since we've quit we've been eating almost no raw food. I think Davis and I are going to have to sit down and commit to what percentage of raw food we're going to aim for in order to stick to it. I also want to start exercising with my mom once we're out in Langford. Which brings me to my next exciting update...

WE'RE BUYING A CONDO! A whoo hoo! So freaking stoked on owning a place. Currently it's a pretty plain jane two bedroom condo off Goldstream but we're hoping to jazz it up a bit with our own personal style. Thanks to Nicole for helping us get financing. If you're thinking of buying I highly recommend her. So we take possession on the 27th so keep that weekend open because I may be bugging you to help us paint and/or move in.

Tomorrow starts my exciting string of poetry gigs over the summer. We're hitting Reynold's High School at 1:45 with some Spoken Word action. We have 75 minutes with a Writing 12 class. It's fun to perform for the students who are actually interested in poetry and we'll get to see a few of our favourite high school poets who happen to attend Reynold's.

So a lot of you know I'm planning on pursuing photography a lot more intensely. I've decided to narrow in on boudoir as far as my marketing so I am looking to snatch up a new website within the next few days and get that rocking. Last night I decided on a name as well so...introducing...

Logo Option

Bettie Boudoir- foxy fotos of women of all shapes and sizes! I am offering an amazing deal to friends, family or really anyone who stumbles on this blog. My packages will start somewhere around $125 with no photos included but for YOU I am offering an all inclusive package at $50 while I build up my portfolio and you will get a disc with at least 10-12 edited photos on it. I have some samples if you want to see but let's be realistic...you already know I rock so just let me know when you want your session.

I think that's actually it for now although I'm sure I'll think of something more exciting to write about later. (more exciting than a new house and business...)
