Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh....need I say more?

WTF kinda CR*P IDOL!!!!

Yes, YEs and YES

TOTALLY AGREE!!
I was like great, Kiss....then Queen...and I was SOOOOOOO happy for him in that moment - Jesus, I mean Keith Urban literally lead Kris in the performance. Oh, I feel TOTALLY DEVASTATED. I'm disappointed that people are happy to settle for mediocrity, when there is SHEER SUPERSTARDOM in their faces!!!

I do though know that our Guy is going to be TOTALLY HUGE and yes, thank God he doesn't need to sing that Kara song and I REEEEEAAAALLLYYYYYY hope Simon does manage him (or someone capable of recognising and directing that brilliance). In the end, its just embarrassing for them - really, GENIUS performer! W*F is WRONG with people??????!!!! Still, Queen need a singer, and did you see Brian May with Adam???

GREATNESS people, and EVERYTHING happens for a reason...there is something EVEN BETTER in store for Adam, watch as the magic and the tale unfolds...... Minions, enjoy the mediocrity with the new Idol you crowned, for you are stuck with him and his 'No Boundaries"......Can't be classy about it, I'm too hurt, wish I could be as gracious as our guy at the press conference. UUUUUGGGHHHHHHHH I will NEVER go through this (Idol) again.

ADAM: I'm with you FOREVER, you are BEYOND PHENOMENAL and there are WWWWAAAAAYYYYYYYYY better things about to happen for you

. Glamberts, Skanks and EVERYONE here - lets applaud ourselves for recognising true talent, feel blessed that you can see it and are not one of those 'sheep'.

DEVASTATED and DISAPPOINTED

What's the crown to a king? Just an accessory, a symbol. You recognize a true King by his nature, his posture and his words. Adam needs no crown to be a King.

For TRUTH, BEAUTY, FREEDOM & LOVE!

Less than 24 hours to go.....

.....before the AI Final - see, have I REALLY posted ANYTHING else on this site OR on my Twitter!!! I've been bewitched, and its really an amazing, for other parts of my life have been dull and routine and in many ways it gives me hope to see someone succeed being true to themselves*

So, I'm REALLY an Adam Girl, phenomenal talent, if you haven't heard, you REALLY must!!! and, while I WILL say that Kris could be perceived as kinda cute, he just doesn't have the whole package and that sense of androgyny and a TOTAL VIBE, just an INCREDIBLE all round performer that Adam does. Personally, I don't even think that its a contest, here's the hands down WINNER!

Did I say he should get the 'NUMERO UNO' spot???????

Well, thought my guy needed some support this week sooooooooooo:

So, if you are in the US, GIVE SOME VOTES TO MY GUY!!! He REALLY needs them! Not only for his MASSIVE TALENT but also for his ULTIMATE CUTENESS! I'll say it again, 80's Girl, men in Guyliner appeal to me and also, people who are REALLY HONEST and OPEN about who they are. I LOVE to see people living their dream and REALLY in their ZONE and well, this guy IS a ROCK GOD!

Go GLAMBERTS!

I'm obsessed...

I'm TOTALLY obsessed with American Idol....Not sure WHEN normal transmission will resurface....

Some Adam inspired Girls below.....

I wanted to show you Myer's Red Shoes....

...but haven't yet downloaded them from my phone.

Its been a LOOOOOOOONNNNGGGGG weekend, and not in a GOOD way! I feel like I really haven't had any time to myself and need another already and I *know* it will be a HUGE week at work - maybe I'll try get Friday & Monday off this weekend and do a long one.

Yesterday, with $20 in my pocket for the rest of the week till Friday (payday) I managed to get some calico, a pink heart shaped calculator and a postcard. Today, I had hoped for a day chillin' but since it was Mother's day, I was at the MIL's (mine is in London).

And, after a few days obsessing about Adam Lambert from AI (yes, I am STILL going on about his awesomeness) I've realised what his attraction is - apart from that overtly sexual bi/gay/straight/eyeliner vibe that the eighties was all about - its really about watching someone who is TOTALLY in the zone of doing what he REALLY excels at and isn't that what we all want?

So, thats where I am at...working on how to be more of myself and bringing more of that into my daily life.

Lets end with an Adam quote shall we? When asked about his success on Idol, he said:
 " This is an example of believing in yourself, knowing who you are. Anybody that feels different or weird, screw it. Embrace it! Embrace each other's differences, OK? Celebrate it! Its cool to be different."

Oh, I should warn you, I'm out to buy Black eyeliner next week and amp up my Ed Hardy vibe, this eighties chick is BAAAACCCCCKKKKKK!!

KB ROCKS!

 

I can't help having a pechant for eyeliner...

...on both myself and on guys - its the eighties Chick in me! I feel it only fair to warn you first up, I am currently SUPER addicted to American Idol and my singer of choice is Adam Lambert. He has this AMAZING ability to transform a seemingly innocent song into an often whack but SUPER cool arrangement.

I've loaded up this vodpod player bottom left on the site so either check there or just YouTube Adam Lambert and search for all the live performances you can get - they keep being taken off so you might have to work a bit but they will probably also be on American Idol (8) for a while. You should check out 'Whole Lotta Love' from this week but also awesome is the version of 'Mad World' and 'If I Can't Have You' (Bee Gees).

Sidenote: Can't BELIEVE that Allison got kicked off this week and that Kris (with a 'K', ugh....) are still there!!! Anyways, never know if it would be a good thing if he won - idol tag and all those restrictions...

Cheering for freedom of expression and originality in all forms and SERIOUS amounts of talent!

Blessings All,

Hey there wonderfuls....

This is SOOOOO short it is probably not even a TWEET!

Just dashing out from work and likely to be late home so wanted to post something just in case my little 'Mapple' doesn't work when I got home - it crapped out this morning and is still under its 3 year 'Mapple' warranty with the company that Steve Mobbs owns, get the picture!!!!

Will they give me a new Mapple???????? - search youtube and The simpsons for the Mapple episode, hysterical!

Fingers Crossed!

WoW, I'm CRASHED.....

Don't know WHAT is happening today, just feeling REALLY exhausted...eeeeewwwwhhhhh, need to visit a Naturopath/Life Coach and get this life into gear.

Lets not taint this post with my grumpy mood, last part of Sat shop tomorrow. Lets instead, show more gorgeous Blythe-ness - you can't see but this one had vampire teeth.....

Going to bed in the next 15, hopefully this will improve my mood, dance class tomorrow night.

Ketchup Domani Peeps,

How fabulous was Saturday Cont.....

Part two: Saturday:
Well, after Peta Pledger, where did I head? Why, to Virgin Active's display suite in Melbourne with a teeny weeny detour into Dymocks to put 3 books on hold - 'The Naughty Secretary's Club', Sewing Green and another random one I can't remember - THAT'S HOW MUCH I READ!.....

Soooooooo what happened at the Virgin Suite? (heh heh...just realised how cheeky that sounds...). Weeeelllll, lots of oooohhiinnnggg and aaaaahhhiiinnggg at cute concepts and machines and, along with my DESPERATION to leave Fitness First (little disillusioned with their shocking customer service to say the least) I picked up...

and became a....

Can't WAIT till the club opens in June/July! Dedicated wellness area, climbing wall, stretching machines, video game cycle, key to record workouts, 190 classes a week, vibratone, REAL Pilates AND dance classses, Tai Chi and just THE most up to date fitness equipment AND friendly staff!!!! Sounds like a NOOOOOO brainer and with a super cheap sign up fee and 1/2 price first month with NO CONTRACT and you can cancel anytime with 2 weeks notice you just GOTTA. And, NO, I do not work for Virgin or know anyone who does, I just am REALLY happy to have an alternative to FF, yyyaaaaaahhhy.

Next stop, an ultra super dooper fabric store in the city, mmmmmmmmm........

And that Blythe yumminess I promised you? Check out this fabulous beauty from none other than Christina of Jam Fancy followed by another two of Christina's creations, that Gal is just WWWWAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY talented* The stitching and the detailing are just INCREDIBLE, the Cherries, the little Bunny Rabbits just ALL FABULOUS......

Seriously, you could just EAT up all this Blythe fabulousness, ROBIO, you ROCK!!! Can't BELIEVE how amazing these l'il cuties are Miss Christina, its an absolute honor to be in the same city. If you are a Blythe Fan, make sure you search Ebay sporadically and see if you can purchase a set or buy one of Christina's prints just to have a taster.

Ketchya Tomorrow Bellas** Part 3 tomorrow...BIG day, heh heh......

Yesterday...

...I did LOTS of shopping and had the BEST day that I alluded to yesterday.

It was weird, as so many cool things conspired on one day so....your Honor....I didn't REALLY mean to spend SO much money, it just sorta 'happened'.

Part 1, visited the studio sale at the Nicolson Building and bought this little lot:
Some cool patterns - BTW, no idea if these are my size and all the instructions have little squares cut out of them - not sure WHY...they were only 50c each for the first few and the last was only $4AUD..

and this cool lining cuz its kinda hard to get printed lining.....

and these doodads that are, well, just cool.....

phew....thats enough shopping for one day....exhausting just telling y'all about it and there is WAAAAYYYYYY more on the way, heh heh...

Part 2 tomorrow. ;-) and some more Blythe wonderfulness following on from yesterday. In the meantime, here is a photo of my SUPER CUTIE Dharma. There's ALWAYS room for a Kitty pic....

 

Blessings,

Blythe Goodness....

Oh, as well as THE most FABULOUS day today - tell all tomorrow - last night I attended a BRILLIANT gathering at Robio last night with an awesome Chick from work and saw lots and Lots and LOTS of WONDERFUL Blythe's, just hanging out in cool outfits - wanna take a peek?
Of course, I'm really ITCHING to show you all the photos but need to hold some back just in case of a 'pic short' week ;-) (STILL no camera.....mmmmmmmm....wish I could make a decision.....).
Have a look below at all the Girls AND Boys Blythe hunting.......

and a prize Blythe in the window.....The skirt is just AMAZING - whoever created this ROCKS!

and just in case you thought it was all cute dolls hanging out....DON'T mess with this Gal!

and a teaser for tomorrow.....

a ZILLION WONDERFUL Blythe's and Blythe goodies by LOTS of talented Artists on show.

A Domani.... REALLY must get that camera.....mmmmmmmmmm

WR Begins....

....WR begins as does another month of NaBloPoMo and I managed April so figured heck, why not continue, its a great discipline and this next couple of months is set to be hysterical as today is the FIRST day of Wardrobe Refashion. I've been double dared to take the WR Challenge for two WHOLE months and today is the first day.
Really, I am going to try my very best and am excited about making some vintage inspired clothes but at the same time very nervous about whether I can succeed and if I will have anything to blog about....

Will have LOTS though tomorrow - off to a Peta Pledger sale, visiting the new Virgin Active gym, going to the Tessuti store and then (hopefully) making something.

OOOOOOOOHHHHH and there will DEF be breakfast in here too, Las Chicas anyone or Los Chickies ;-)

WHY does YouTube NOT post to my Typepad....

...I spent an AGE explaining how it was a TRAVESTY that Adam Lambert was in the bottom two - I mean....what WAS that???????? If you really don't know WHAT I am talking about go here or go to youtube and then search for Adam Lambert - for this week in particular add the words "feeling good" but you could also search "mad world +Adam Lambert" or "bohemian Rhapsody +Adam Lambert".
I tellya, this guy is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDD

Seriously...sometimes I wonder about myself...... Can't WAIT to see next week when Adam hits Rock week, he is going to KILL IT!!!!

Blessings Y'All,
Especially to my Crafty Gals exhibiting at Bris Stitches & Craft - GO TEAM!!!

KittyB XXXXX

Gosh, its been a looooonnnnggggg day.....

Sometimes, you have ONE of those days where NOTHING is straight forward. TODAY was ONE of those days.........

Super tired peeps, just been to dance class - LOVE IT - but the downside is its a little far away and then when you get back you still want to stay up, mmmmm....well....nearly bedtime.

Sorry for a BORING post, promise tomorrow I will get my act together ;-)

Blessings Peeps,

KittyB

Is it Friday???

Dang! Is it wrong that I am already thinking about my Baked Bean Brekky on the weekend?

Just found out that Mercury is retrograde, now THAT explains it!

Green Beauty Guide....

....I just HAD to buy a copy of this book tonight: The Green Beauty Guide and unfortunately, had to buy a copy of Marie Claire Idees & a copy of Ready Made Magazine too.

Dang, there goes the budget for this, and a bit of next week....

Its a REALLY good book and I highly recommend it, lots of recipes that are sound good enough to eat but that are actually meant to be put on the face. Now THATS the kind of cosmetic I want to apply.
Will have more time to have a peek at it more thoroughly tomorrow so I will keep you posted.

Here is an oldie to pass the time, forgot to take photos this weekend, dang it! Enjoy a sunset from my window....

Bunny Hopping...

Awwwwwhhhhhhh, this doesn't even show it at it's best but I still can't believe that the fabric I bought for the cape (see yesterday's post) is called 'Bunny Hop'! Just in case you can't see in this picture its a yummy Brown with pale Blue and I'm hoping <hopping even> that it is going to be FABULOUS*

If I could find silk lining with a print of bunny Rabbits all over it would be SUPER cute, BUT, failing that, I have my eye on some yummy dusty pink silk. Have to find some decorative ribbon too to cover a join inside - maybe this can have some Bunny cuteness* <3

Aaaannnnnnnnddddd, OK, so I am NOT sure that I am in love with the fringing but I finished the scarf I was making. Its a BUTT freezing day here so this scarf is REALLY coming in handy.

I've also sorted my coat for Winter and looks like about time....layby is a GOOD thing!

Blessings

OMIGOSH....

.....nearly missed the deadline for posting, better type SUPER fast!!!

Well, a half day trip in the city yielded almost nothing, until I finally relented and bought some fabric to make a cape from the Diana Rupp book - Sew Sew Everything! I'll show you the fabric tomorrow, some yummy silk to be purchased for the lining in next week's budget.

and there is some FABULOUS fabric on the Tessuti site that I NEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD......Will try to find something to make from it tomorrow.

Oh, and I finished my Lorna scarf...again, photos tomorrow*

Catchya Peeps!

Today....

...Appletini's, tomorrow the WORLD!

When Toys Rule the World...

Didn't you used to dream that when you went to bed they all came alive? Oh, if that were true....
