Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry

well, three-fifths of the gang expected to attend tcaf yesterday were still hungover from the night before, so comic book day was postponed until today. instead, adam and went out to the vegan ethiopian place in parkdale , which is so good and cheap and filling, and lord, toronto, please go and visit because the woman who runs the place warms my heart. we got the all-day breakfast combo ($5.26), and she threw in double portions of butucha (scrambled chickpeas) because she remembered they were my favourite. so filling, so tasty. after, it was a short walk to bri's third birthday party in as many weeks, which was a bit of an iffy, and so we left early to go to sleep for 11 hours.

this morning was for watching episodes of clark and michael on youtube, and then wondering why i am so unfunny when some people are all sorts of funny. this afternoon was for meeting up with dan&stewart, bev, and eventually adam (and adam b, unexpectedly); admiring comics; avoiding the sorts of people who draw comics about math or cancer and then talk your (my) ear off while you (me) feel uncomfortably trapped; loving pretty colours; loving clever ideas; an early supper at juice for life. we came home to two postcards in the mailbox, from my mum in quebec city and sarah&nick in monoco.

what if i'm no good at my new job tomorrow? what if i'm really great at my new job tomorrow?

also, i'm still so angry about this $2.3B budget surplus the government of ontario has suddenly found. what type of idiot financiers do you have working for your organisation, when you suddenly find $2.3B that you weren't expecting? or, who do you think you are not adequately funding social programs, hospitals, schools, road repairs, public transit, transfer payments to municipalities, all under the guise of not having any money, we all need to tighten our belts, etc. finally funding the autism programs the courts ruled you had to fund two years ago does not make up for all of this crap.

One time I found a $20 in a pair of pants I washed. I bet it was just like that.

oh, no doubt! i found $5 in an mystery pocket in my wallet few days ago, and i reckon finding $2.3 billion is essentially the exact same thing!

you are going to take new york city by storm, actually!

unless you meant i as in me, in which case, all is great, except that i haven't a clue how to do this job and am baffled that i was the best candidate interviewed.
