this is my 4th participation to CHAD DARNELL's 12 OF 12 PROJECT.
but due to some health issues...
i had to reconsider what i had planned [generally speaking] for this day.
so i had to rely on what was close-by,
easy fixes to my dilemma.
my apologies!!
i know i usually tend to have editing issues in respect to the notion of "12 of 12",
but not this month,
as i barely made it,
through some wizardry of my own...
i tried to be humourous.
indulge me!!
i'm not feeling so well...
let's go!!!

yes!!
i've already done my holidays decos...
i didn't start with that intention,
but since i had installed a few things to see if i liked them,
i decided to leave them there
and do the whole thing...
didn't want to take them off
to do them all over again in 2 or 3 weeks...
lazy, i know!!!
:D~
scarf-O-mania!!
an affliction that affects most canadians,
and once it gets to you,
you feel the symptoms for like the next 6 months...
oy vey!!!
can i move south?!?
but then...
i wouldn't want flood or hurricanes either...
what's a guy to do???
:D~
demons?!?
in broad daylight?!?
they oughta be ashamed to flaunt themselves like this...
unless it is to invite you
to one of the finest restaurants in montreal's gay village:
PICCOLO DIAVOLO !!!
fine italian cuisine.
who in the world doesnt like that,
as it is probably the most congenial food
you can find on a table.
miam!!!
:D~
the POLAR BIKE !!!
once prized for its fur,
this endangered species was believed to now be extinct.
so you can imagine my surprise
to see one in captivity...
;)~
much to my surprise this morning,
the building of our national television station had vanished!!!
i thought for a moment
it might be one of david copperfield's stunts...
but no!!
it was all mother nature's work.
:D~
BIXI !!
(french)
(english)
those bikes you can have perform for you at a reasonable price,
& which you can ditch half-an-hour later,
pretty much any place you want in the city.
awh, montreal!!
no better place to have some fun...
;)~
if you ever wondered
how mankind evolved
from homo sapiens to drama queens,
look no further!!!
"cromagnon" is one of my alter egos,
and i obviously had to put it to good use today.
G-R-U-N-T !!!
:D~
a european meal?
judge by yourself:
veal meatballs "a l'italienne",
some greek salad,
with some spanish wine.
SALUTE!!!
:)~
a web buddy mentionned them this week
and i now had to watch them,
so i did,
over dinner.
dragqueens acting like women living the hollywood lifestyle,
sort of...
YIKES!!!!
and ever SO funny!!!
girls will be girls!!!
indeed!!!
:D~
so,
sue me!!!!
i ran out of ideas!!!!!...
(shut up!!
i feel cheap myself...)
:D~
OUF
!!!!!!
finally,
this day is over.
time for bed.
hoping things will be better for me,
as i hate to pull things off
barely by the skin of my teeth...
(if you only knew...)
see you all next month!!
my planned concept for today
would still be valid next month...
who knows?!?
:)~

Ben quoi?!?
Il est très bien, ce 12 of 12!!
Pas besoin d'aller bien loin, j'adore les diables, le polar bike, même les Bixi ont de la gueule! Et je vois que tu as changé quelques encadrements de place! ;¬)
Même la blank est géniale! C'est dire!
I like your style T and really enjoyed your photos. Thanks for sharing and bringing a smile to my face. I look forward to next months.
@ la bloggia:
je t'avouerai en avoir arrache pour completer ce 12 de 12. j'avais l'intention de faire autre chose, donc ce changement de cap a la derniere minute ne me rejouissait pas du tout. la bicyclette polaire cependant fut une belle decouverte.
bah!! on verra bien ce que l'avenir apportera!!

@ TJ:
thanx TJ!! if it made you smile, then, it was worth it!!

Cromagnonpitheque!!!!
Your pics are great, and the subtitles are excellent, good idea.
started my day laughing ;-))
@ linoue:
well, "cromagnon" doesn't exist for nothing. you & lucrecia know me personally, so you know about my occasionally brutal nature, my first degree sense of humor, etc... & my loud mouth. so, i thought it'd be nice to insert this character into mankind's evolution [?!?]. i think this month's 12 of 12 had more to do with the text than the pictures themselves... but it's alright!! i'll take this as a welcomed change from my usually overabundant postings. am i finally grasping the notion of "less is more"??? i think NOT!!!
:D~
HUGZ
Less is more for everyone ... but you. ie: I always look up to you because you R a passionate being, once wound up, you are unstoppable and you do whatever you do 200% bigger than life size. It is not the only reason I luv you, but that's how I see you.
@ linoue:
OMG!! you wanna make me blush?!?
:D~
i have to admit there's no middle ground with me, i'm either indifferent or totally sold to the idea...

T - These are AWESOME! I need some of those snowflakes (the real ones haven't shown up 'round here yet). And the Polar Bike just weirds me out.
Couldn't help but think of The Beatles White Album when I saw the "Blank Page"... was the original shot you and Yoko naked??? YIKES! ;)
Hope you're back to health - you're creativity sure wasn't off with these pix... nice job!
Hugs,
J
P.S. The hubster laughed at your "knot" comment. ;)
@ jill:
the polar bike is what gave me hope i could do something locally on that day, given my spine problems were acting up.(took a sick day the day after...).
the polar bike clearly states the nature of their business while conferring a seasonal look. i find this is an excellent window, very effective. it catches your attention.
when we get snow here, i'll ship it all to you, ok?!? brace yourself!!
:D~
as for the knots, what you did was beautiful & interesting, but if you hadn't thought of its kinky aspect, well, now, you both know...
;)~
see ya next month!!
HUGZ
Well, that got a few giggles out of me! I'm off to check out Carrie's blog now...
@ bec:
i'm sure carrie will appreciate since, aside from my closest friends, all the visitors she gets are [most likely] guys looking for "chat/pussy/sex", you get the picture. do you realize your nickname (bec), in french, could either mean a bird's bill, or a kiss??
always sounded [pleasantly] funny to me!!!
see ya girl, see ya next month!!
:D~

But Debbie ... pastels? (Love Girls will be Girls!)
The next time I find myself in the Village, I will ask you for recommendations -- I had one of the worst dining experiences ever at a restaurant there (don't worry -- I don't hold it against Montreal!).
Nice 12, as always!!
@ chris:
considering the amount of restaurant we have in the city...it'd be a shame if you held it against the whole city. one restaurant, perhaps even only one person having a bad day & you paid for it, or maybe, it's really not a recommandable place. you gotta know where to go, & it's not always in the village. gotta think outside the ghetto, sometimes...
:)~
better ask the locals where THEY eat!!!
:D~

A creative 12, I like the poster idea! I was going to say something else, and can't remember it at all now! Grrr...
Oh! Are you by any chance Scorpio? I normally don't read horoscopes or pay any attention to them. But I've noticed that I fit a LOT of the Scorpio characteristics (I am Scorpio anyway). And one of those is feeling passionately about things. If I love it, I *really* love it, and if I don't like something, I *hate* it! I even do "don't care" strongly. If I don't care, I really don't feel anything for it!
Sorry I'm late commenting - busy week at work!
@ dogeared:
nope! a simple aries!!... (as if there was anything simple about it...)
:D~
i had to get creative, given to my disposition that day. as if life wasn't crazy enough, one has to be annoyed by other kinds of problems...
while i'm pleased with some, i'll have to endure the others. that's ok!! there's always next month; hoping things will quiet down at work, & my health improve, so i can have a better experience.
see you next month! looking forward to what everyone wuill be doing!!
:)~
HUGZ
Sorry you weren't well on the 12th. Hope all is better now. I loved your 12...love that you take the time to play with the pix. And, I particularly love your red duvet, shams, etc., on your new bed. See you next month
@ sunny archibald:
as it is spine-related, it is a chronic problems with peaks, comes & goes!! as for the pics, i've always enjoyed playing with the pics themselves, via photoshop or other programs, & enhanced their presentation via others. it can sometimes be a long process but it's part of the fun. visuals are important to me. also looking forward to the next 12th.
