NO BIG DEAL.
Hooray for life! Apartment Therapy did a House Tour of my place due to my baller-ness and it looks pretty good, if I do say so myself.
A huge thank-you to Abby, who was charming and took some great photos… AND she wrote such a cute and complimentary write up on the site, I even teared up a little. ALSO, she called me “a hilarious blogger/gal about town”! I FEEL SO COOL AND IMPORTANT.
Only thing that I would change is I would lose 10 pounds before they come to photograph me because I look like a gross barefoot heifer. But who likes my gorgeous vintage Missoni circle skirt??? EVERYONE? I know.
Comments on the post have been overwhelmingly positive and make me feel warm in my belly - thank you to everyone, it’s great to hear compliments after all that hard work. A couple of people aren’t keen on my mugshots, and a few people seemed upset that I have an authentic set of Rorschach cards on my wall (note: there was a pretty public leak of the cards in 2009… and it was ridiculously easy to get them… even though neither of us is invovled in psychological assessments in any way… so I guess I figured the “secret” was out), which I definitely understand. But hey – that’s personal preference for ya. In fact, I’m kind of glad – art should be contentious and start discussion, or it’s just squares of watered down boringness on your wall.
I’m going to be posting some more pics and interior room tours of the place in the future – I was actually waiting for this post to come up before I did that to not “ruin” the surprise… for all my 3 dedicated readers.
If anyone has any questions about anything, or just want to say hi, feel free to contact me via comments on this blog or through the email provided on the “About” page above.
Self-hating, dog-loving and cheese-eating in Toronto. 
Congrats! Well deserved and a fantastic article.
Also, in no way do you look like a gross barefoot heifer. FACT.
Discovered your blog thanks to AT and I’ll definitely be your newest follower. Awesome blog…HILARIOUS. Great design sense. And you’re a Torontonian too. Sweet.
And for the record can I just say I’m currently apartment hunting – going on 2 months now – and girl. You. Lucked. Out. Holy crap. Keep me in mind if something amazing in your ‘hood pops up. So serious.

Hey Kay,
So glad that you have started reading… I’ll try to keep things interesting to keep you around. And seriously – I KNOW. Finding a rental in Toronto has gotten out of control. The only reason I found mine was by luck luck luck. And I will keep my eye out for you in my hood.
Holy shit. So effing nice.
yeah buddy, congrats a million times over! looks so awesome.
Love your apartment and your blog.
Found your blog via this House Tour on AT. Your place looks so wonderful! You definitely have interior-design / DIY / make-a-place-look-great-and-comfy skills. You’ve got a new blog follower.
Saw your house tour on Apartment Therapy today! Love your home and your blog! (You definitely have a new blog follower.) Great job on your DIY’s, I’ve been wanting to make that pipe bookshelf for a while now and you have definitely inspired me to do it even more!
I’ve just started my own DIY, home decor blog as well, if you have any tips or insights I’d love to hear them!
Thanks for sharing!
Way to go Natty! Who’s Kevin????
I don’t think I’ve ever left a comment on the blog of someone I didn’t know before, but for some reason I’m feeling a fit of extreme maternal fondness for you. ; ) Your house is charming (saw it on AT) and your writing is funny + sweetly raucous. You are not a heifer (though they are lovely creatures). It’s good to love cheese, dogs and also yourself.
Warm drive-by hugs from an old lady in Toronto.

AWWWWW! Eh-Bee!
Thank you for having feelings of maternal fondness for me – you made my Friday.
