A Miniature Philosopher Once Said....


Cocaine Princess here, 

A miniature philosopher once said....

Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere. He's gotta pick this one. He's got to. I don't see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there's not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see." ~Linus Van Pelt 




Ahh yes my Lovely Ones, tomorrow is Halloween. *Insert sinister laugh*

For as long as I can remember (next to Christmas) I love Halloween! I ask, what's not to love?

1. Decorating the house in ghoulish decorations.

2.Choosing a costume & getting a pumpkin.

3. Scaring yourself silly watching horror films, (Watching "A Nightmare on Elm Street" or "Insidious" doesn't seem as frightening in the month of July)

4. Buying Halloween chocolates and buying an extra box to keep for yourself.

5. Ordering the Pumpkin Spice donut from Tim Horton's. Yum!


6. Watching "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown."
 

7. Running from house to house ringing the doorbell while saying "Treat or Trick." (The only day of the year where kids are allowed to talk to strangers and accept candy)

8. You can away with talking like Bela Lugosi — “I vant to suck your blood.”



As an adult not much has really changed-- except I don't go Trick or Treating anymore. It's all about the party.  

I've picked out a costume, the house is decorated, ate a pumpkin spiced donut, watched horror films and the Peanuts special, boxes of mini sized chocolates have been bought and I've been driving my sister crazy while talking in a Romanian accent all week. Hehehe. 



Each year I post a Halloween themed song. I have two favorites but seeing how I've posted Heart by Pet Shop Boys and The Morning After Dark by Timbaland in my previous posts, I thought I'd pick something different. Hmm, I think the one I've selected qualifies as being somewhat Halloween-ish. For reasons I can't figure out MTV banned this video.

I'll be going on a hiatus for about a week or so. Why? Vaycay time!! Whoo! I can already feel the warm, silky sand in between my pedicured toes.

My loyal and dear readers, it's Devil's Night!!
Whatever your plans are have a devilish weekend and watch out for The Boogeyman. Mwaaaah. ~x

Rebel Heart Part 1

Cocaine Princes here.

Last weekend I attended Madonna's Rebel Heart Concert in support of her latest album-- Rebel Heart. Sister & I decided to make a day out of it by spending it in the city. We left around noon and after doing a little shopping in trendy Yorkville we headed on over to the Air Canada Center.




The concert was scheduled to start at 8pm but sissy-poo & I had dinner reservations for 6pm at The Air Canada Club. And let me tell you our table for two was fantastic and I'll explain in a moment why. Since we were attending the concert we were presented with The Rebel Heart Dinner Menu.

  
I scratched my head when I saw Lobster Deviled Potatoes on the menu. I'm not going to Iie-- that sounded awful but then again I don't like seafood. I started off with a Caesar salad.  Please excuse the blurry shot.



For my main course I decided on the Classic Double Cheeseburger with BBQ Kettle Chips.




The burger was enormous! Clearly it didn't occur to me that it would be gourmet and not your typical fast food type burger. I had to literally flatten it with the palm of my manicured hand but the damn thing kept popping back up. I had no choice but to cut the sucker in half and even then it was still too big to eat. I didn't want to but I had no choice but to eat it with a knife and fork. 


As I mentioned earlier our table for two was fantastic! Why? Because we were seated within a hands reach away from the curtain that was covering the auditorium and Madonna happened to be in rehearsal!! Three other tables were nearby and let's just say we were all in the platinum section. Prior to be being seated we were told not to peak behind the curtains and pictures were definitely a no-no until the curtains were lifted. The curtains would be raised at 7pm when the doors would open for concert go-ers to be seated. Instead what kept on happening? Patrons who were seated in other areas of the restaurant kept not just crossing over into our section (upon hearing the music) but they also kept peaking behind the curtain to take pictures prompting the security guards to delete their pictures.

I however was able to sneak a shot without even having to get up. There was a slight opening on the curtain, nothing too big but it gave me a good view of the stage. I had to be careful since security was everywhere. I pretended I was taking a picture of my dinner. 



I know what you're thinking-- this picture has already been posted but take a good look again. In between the kettle chips & burger can you see a shiny light? Voila the stage! 

By 7:30pm the auditorium was filled to capacity. Prior to sitting down we headed to the merchandise area to buy some souvenirs. 



 T-shirt:



Programme:




The cost of the T-shirt was $65.00 yet the programme was only $30.00. I couldn't understand why the shirt cost more than the programme?

Now the show was suppose to start at 8:00pm until we all had been informed it wasn't starting until 9pm creating a loud uproar among the fans. What could we do? Nothing really, right? After all it was Madonna & we were on The Material Girl's time. 

By 9:05pm there was still no Madonna. 9:15.....9:30pm.....Nothing. Not a peep.

It wasn't until 10pm the lights finally went out and the music finally started with Michael Jackson's Wanna Be Starting Something....

To Be Continued.


Oh by the way---- here's the outfit I wore to the concert. Pretty cute isn't it?

Long Weekend


Cocaine Princess here.

What a week it's been-- & what a great one too. Madonna's concert on Monday night was phenomenal!! 57 years old & she killed it. Last night I was at a VIP Fashion Event involving fashion & alcohol & I just realized the other day it's Long Weekend for us Canadians! 

Thanksgiving/Harvest Time is upon us--- Let The Weekend Of Over Eating Begin!

Next week I'll be posting about the concert. I would have blogged the entry today but let's just say I may have indulged in a little too much champagne earlier tonight.

My loyal and dear readers, it's finally Friday.
Whatever your plans are have a loving weekend. ~x

S.E.X.




Cocaine Princess here.

Well first off I'd like to say how happy I am that the world did not come to an end.
 
210 days ago I purchased 2 tickets for sister and I to see the one and only Madonna perform in concert  in support of her thirteenth studio album Rebel Heart. Only 3 more days remain til The Material Girl hits the T.dot!! Words can't express how happy and excited I am-- and the fact it happens to be Paris Fashion Week and later on today Christian Dior presents his SS16 Collection. Talk about icing on the cake! I'll be blogging plenty about the concert next week. 

An of course what better way to end this post but with a song. Have you heard this one?

"....Twisted rope, handcuffs, blindfolds, stringer pearls
Neckties, silk scarf, silver chains, pretty girls...."

My loyal and dear readers, it's finally Friday.

Whatever your plans are have a splendid first weekend of October.~x
