Musical Pick Me Up (Canadian Style)

Had one of those ends of my day, where really the only cure is music, and better yet, music that makes me smile and reminds that as a Canadian artist you can be successful. So I returned to a longstanding tradition of my teen years – mixed tape making – only wish this looked like an actual cassette tape (it’s a security thing, kind of like my yellow blankie that’s still in my room at home – if anyone knows how to do such things on the web, please share, I couldn’t find what I wanted):

PS If one of your tunes is not on here, it’s because I was limited to what I could find on Grooveshark, which brings me to my apologies to the Mac crowd – their widgets are flash based – I’ll put in a request for a change to html5.

Mid Week Pantie Choir

If you’re like me and working too damn hard on a Tuesday following a long weekend (why is it that after a long weekend I always feel the need to try and fit in 6 days of work into 4?), then you’re in desperate need to jump, jive and wail and shake up some sillies.  And really what better way is there to do that, then to sing along with Little Miss Higgins and the folks of Hornby Island to Bargain Shop Panties:

So don’t be shy!  Start prancing around in those Bargain Shop Panties.  I am sure no one in the office will mind.  Hell, if I were in your office I’d be hooting and hollering and encouraging you on.

Kisses,

Emme xoxo

PS. Oh and remember your Little Miss Higgins Pantie Choir, so belt it out loud.

PPS. So loving the 2010 Burnaby Blues and Roots Festival for introducing me to this gal and her bargain shop panties.

Summer Time Blues

I got me the blues.  Some summer time blues.

Only one remedy for some hot, smokey weekend summer time blues.  Yep, you guessed it – a weekend all about ME with plenty of indulgence.  Let’s just call it my belated birthday bash(es) with the Burnaby Blues and Roots TODAY and The Lilac Tree Has Been Hacked to the Ground Film Festival.

Now take it away Little Miss Higgins
