Last fall or late last summer, I was asked to be in a 1930s themed photo-shoot for Buy Design.  (A charity that provides new clothing and basic need stuff to social service agencies.)

Because it took place on the Island and I hadn’t been to the Island in years, I went to the thing.  It also gave me an excuse to wear my bespoke pink suit.   Not like I need an excuse but sometimes it’s nice to say you have one.

The photshoot thing was okay.  It’s not really my cup of tea.  Cameras have always made me uncomfortable.  When someone takes a picture of me, I usually try to ignore what’s happening and go to my happy place.  I feel the same about parties.  I sometimes attend because I feel like I should but it’s not what I find fun.

Don’t know if I’ll go this party or not.  I can’t even remember if I’m invited.

As far the shoot went, there was a boat ride and lot of sitting around.  I spotted a couple of cardinals and followed them around for a little while.  Someone put some make-up on me and some gel in my hair.  There were cookies.  I’ll do a better post on all this when I get some more pics.

Anyway, the website is up and running.  (There’s pics of me there.)  And I think this ad campaign is gonna be all over the place in Toronto. Maybe it already is.  I have no idea what’s going on and I actually forgot all about it.  But if you’ve seen me on a subway or something, let me know.  I’d like to know what trains to avoid.
