"Jesus, believe us.."

"Believe us, because we taught you all you know."

...

"Keep dreaming."

"Believe, plead", "yeah, you know".

I'm so fucking lazy about writing accurate song lyrics, but fuck it, and fuck no how it's a stupid goddamn monday night and what the hell do I care about a silly little-ass journal entry out there in never-never land.

There's always da drums....

The blackout was fun. I can't say that everyone had quite the same experience, but regardless, stars in the night sky over Toronto is quite a spectacular thing.

So, I work with computers right? We're sitting there about 4pm when, literally, the shit hits the fan. We normally have regularly scheduled power outages which we're prepared for and even the occasional brownouts are weathered easily....

sounds like you made the most of your darkness. i love a good power failure. the night sky looks so different (see: amazing) without all the artificial light...
large groups of people often frighten me, and yet constantly manages to pleasantly surprise me.
take care sweetie,

I liked the radio report about the homeless guy directing traffic on Front St.

"The basic problem," he proposes, "has always been getting other people to die for you. What's worth enough for a man to give up his life? That's where religion had the edge, for centuries. Religion was always about death. It was used not as an opiate so much as a technique - it got people to die for one particular set of beliefs about death....

This weekend was busy busy. Obviously the highlight was the pool party, even though I didn't stay nearly as long as I would have liked.

However, it was so nice to meet Trinity, and Mya, who are both adorable and kick-ass all at the same time.

All the usual Canadian friends were there: girltoy, bigpunkmike (well, that's his name for today), Cereal_Killer...

ah, thanks. i mostly want to see it for audrey tautou, but the movie actually does sound good.

oh, and while we're on the topic of movies, where did you see this is what democracy looks like? at a screening or did you order the video?

I'm such a grown-up.

Last night I did something I swore I would never do; I sat down and figured out my expenses.

I need to know where all my money goes (wine) so that I can hopefully afford to move next year.

Damnit. I want my spontaneity back. This is just silly.

Sorry for the rant.

i've always felt too mature for my age. i was at the same maturity level when i was 6 that i'm at now.
chimpsky:
Running out of money can lead to some very spontaneous behaviour. Also not having a place to live. I think planning is excusable, at least in limited circumstances.

ps: Bad experiences with Amtrak? Naaaaahhhh.. Impossible.

Long %#$%^@!@# weekend.

Really, really long.

After a 10-hour busride through New York state I arrived at Grand Central at about 7:30 in the morning (we left at 9:30 at night) then after transferring to another bus we finally arrived in Hartford at 12:30pm on Sat.

Tired, but wanting to actually do something besides sit on a bus, we hopped in a car and drove...

BTW..just noticed Sex and Lucia and Red Violin listed on your fav movies....both damn good films I must say.

chimpsky:
Ever taken the train to NYC? 12+ hours, usually more, and sometimes it smells bad. But at least you can get up and walk around.

BTW, if you were on a bus, wouldn't it be the Port Authority terminal where you arrived? (Former NYer here).

I'm heading to Connecticut tonight at really last notice.

I was hoping that I'd get to see Isobel during the trip, but I'm going with a lot more people than I originally anticipated (good though, it will save me money) and I don't think a stopover will fly to well with them.

But, I have made a promise and I will keep it. Maybe not...

So. SARStock (which is the worst name I've ever heard for an event) was a lot of fun. I'm trying to get over my moral dilemma around the world helping out Canada during it's rough time when all the other areas affected don't warrant such attention.

Even though, having these opinions are sort of hypocritical since I did, you know, attend the concert.

In any...

haha I am sooooo with you on the 'SARStock' thing... that is the stupidest name for it... I just call it what it is "the SARS benefit concert" sounds better. Anyway I didn't go... I just can't handle being trapped in the sun all day... besides, uh... I don't think I would have had much luck getting a hotel in the GTO, what with all the people from out of town. One thing that bothered me about the whole security situation, even though I was not there: why was it okay for the 'pilgrims' to camp out at the same site for the Pope at 'World Youth Day' last year but they were apparently giving people a hard time for camping out prior to the concert? Seems like a double standard there.... and just so ya know my op' on the Pope... he is the anti-christ puke but anyway, so glad you had fun at the shew. I really will have to make it to Toronto one of these days and if I ever do get plans you'll be the first to know... I really wanna hang out sometime. Been thinking about a trip to the zoo though... I actually feel very weird morally about that one, but I do know that there are CABA meetings there, maybe I'll plan around one of those, they send me a newsletter every now and then via e-mail. I found out about CABA at a lecture by Jane Goodall a couple years ago.... she even sighed my copy of through a window; my 30 years in Gombe. Also she posed for a pic with my group... ah off on a tangent here.

I thought "Practical Demonkeeping" was fantastic. Biting and very, very humourous. I recommend it.

I'm actually not that new to SG. I was on last year for a while and met a few of the TO crew when we went to see "Bowling for Columbine." Lots o' fun for all. See you around.
