After much tears, laughter, smiles and heartache…Candice Does the World is finally live!
(That’s a total lie, my incredibly talented friend Shaun set the whole thing up in a matter of days and I just sat back and gave directions. The result? Pure fucking awesomeness.)
Really excited about this, I had the most insane case of the butterflies before I made the announcement. I really hope I can set up something unique, and I realy hope I can keep cranking out content as I’m not exactly travelling right now. But I think it’ll be cool to follow me as I plot my RTW trip for a few years. Sigh.
So check it out, give me some feedback, and set up some subscriptions will ya? I’m hoping to monetize this one. Now all that’s left is That’s Tangly to officially launch! Yis!
In other news, I completely forgot to mention that Meg at Lost in Thought honoured me with this award:
Thanks, Meg! I meant to mention this earlier, but was swept up in the mass confusion of my life. Check out her blog, I’m a big fan. I find reading online very difficult at times, but Meg has somehow perfected the flow of online writing so that I’m always immediately swept up in her posts. Does that make sense? She’s an all around great person with some pretty awesome travel stories too.
TOR and I are currently camped out on the futon watching the Victoria’s Secret Runway Competition thingy. If there is ANYTHING to make me want to stick a finger down my throat, this is it. Damn. I’d do all these girls. Twice.
I spent last night assembling gingerbread houses, baking cookies and making crafts with the Rangers. We totally bit off more than we could chew…by the time we left, my leader’s dinette was entirely coated in flour and candy. I don’t know where this woman gets her energy. Anyway, it did a lot to revive some Christmas spirit, as did coming downstairs tonight to find TOR surrounded by pretty wrapping paper and colourful ribbon. I have this weird fascination with wrapping presents. I’m a pro. I’d wrap my entire office space if I could. And I did. Last year.
I’m opening bets on how much sleep I’ll get tonight. I’m guessing five hours.

That VS fashion show is something I just can’t watch. It makes me feel guilty. For eating.

Congrats on the new site! Looks great š I refuse to watch the VS fashion show because three years ago when I did, I got so drunk, made a chocolate cake and ate the whole thing. You’d think I’d want to stick a finger down my throat, but no, it makes me do the opposite. Damn them.

Great new site, it is now in my Google Reader and part of my ongoing obsession with reading everything online.
BTW, I PVR’ed the show… apparently that does not make me a dirty old man but “apart of their target audience”. Who knew!

I can’t wrap presents at all. I’ll be one of those who wait in line to have their stuff gift-wrapped.
In other news… OMG! I love your banner/header at that site! Can totally see YOUR FACE. š And i don’t know if I’ve ever said it? but I love that picture of you, on the beach. I gotta take a photo like that someday.

Maybe you could wrap up a watering can for the office plant. š

I really love the look of that blog, Candice! I’ll have to hit you up for advice on how to start my own, after your life becomes not quite as busy. Maybe I’ll ask if you can get Shaun to do mine too, ha-ha! And congrats on the award!

Congrats on the new site. I look forward to seeing how you plan for your RTW trip. I am still debating to either do 1 RTW trip or break it up over a few years.

Love the new site!
And please come wrap presents for me. I’m so awful at it. I always have tons of extra wrapping paper at the corners so I just smush it down and tape it. Haha!

@J: that show makes me feel guilty for ever eating anything
@CJ: thanks CJ, you’re the best cheerleader ever!
@Linlah: again, THANKS!
@Rob: hehe, my friend put together the whole thing, sorry!
@V: that’s the most perfect way to EVER follow up with that show
@Chris: thank you! my feeder is much, much too long also. eek. and i would imagine you are THE target audience, hah
@nashe: thank you!!! I love that picture too. although the beach is crap.
@JoAnna: hahahahaha, how did i not blog about that incident?
@Sabina: thanks, sabina! i would never have been able to do any of it without my friend, he was awesome. his email address is at the bottom fo the site if you want to send him an inquiry!
@eric: i have a few potential plans, mostly i intend to set up some connections worldwide and use them. exploit them. and if it takes longer than a year, even better!
@Sherri: thanks!! and i’d LOVE to, send them this way .although then i guess you’d have to wrap them in packaging, kinda defeats the purpose
