Wedding Song

A song I wrote for Philip in honour of our wedding...

Women's Tennis is SEXY!

How does a person think of a really sexist idea for an ad, and then present it to a bunch of people in a board room without any of them pointing out that it's outrageously sexist, and how is it subsequently presented to the client who has hired them to create the ad without anyone in that boardroom saying, "Wait a second, everyone, don't you think maybe this is a bit yucky? No, nobody? Okay, cool. Pass the sandwiches. Ooh, is that olive tapenade?"

See "Folk with Benefits" in Toronto! MONDAY, JULY 25TH AT THE ANNEX LIVE!

Hi folks,

What are you doing on Monday, July 25th at 7pm?

PROBABLY COMING TO THE ANNEX LIVE TO SEE THE ONE TORONTO PERFORMANCE OF MY CALGARY FRINGE SHOW, RIGHT?

This show is funny and silly, and I think you'll really like it. Check out the lovely work of my husband and poster designer:

"Helder Brum & Friends"

Oh goodness, posting about another show, aren't I just a bit self-promotey these days? Well, the good news is all the shows I tell you about are probably going to be funny and awesome. I promise never to invite you to a taping of me as a Metro supermarket spokesperson.

I will be the musical guest at Helder Brum & Friends at Bread and Circus on Thursday, July 21st. What am I doing wasting all this energy typing? I could just show you the poster:

These shows are so much fun - you have to come! Bread and Circus is a great venue and the performers are some of the best that the Toronto comedy scene has to offer. Hope to see you there!

Folk With Benefits

Oh, hello, hi. So I'm sitting here in my pretty dress which I wore to Hugh Jackman's wonderful show, watching an old GSP fight on the TiVo because Phil turned it on and then left the room, and I thought I would say hello, hi, how are you, and let you know what I've been working on.

I and my friend Chelsea are busily gearing up for our Calgary Fringe show, Folk With Benefits, which will run from July 29th to August 6th. If you live in the Calgary area, we'd love to see you there. If you live in Toronto, we'd love to see you pay $672 to come see us, and we promise we'll give you at least one free beer.

Let me tell you a little bit about our show. It's about two comedic folk songstresses on the last leg of their cross-Canada tour. It's funny, quirky and dirty, and you will love it. Seriously, totally worth the $672.

Check out our website! Not to brag, but I made it myself and hardly cried at all when I was trying to figure out how to publish it. Now that I've done it, I'm considering becoming an IT consultant.

And now to summarize: Folk With Benefits, Calgary, I'm a computer genius.

Good night!
