um, the only time i met a bunch of sinistrines here in the t.dot when
there wasn't a concert going on immediately in front of us all, they all
had their backs to me and stayed that way till i left.  however, i
attribute this largely to everyone having just flown in from somewhere
and being tired/excited and knowing eachother better than they knew me
-not, i repeat not to egregious faults of character.  

so is anyone going to guitar wolf this thursday, or is that just not
twee enough for the toronto crowd?

frankly, i think the weather is absolutely disgusting.  i actually broke
a sweat yesterday while i was making dinner -that is just unpardonable. 
in fact, while merely walking about the heat made the brylcreem come out
of my hair and i almost became completely unhinged.  heat is indecent. 
it should stop tonight and go back to being a nice, polite season like
fall or spring.  none of this summer nonsense where it's not wanted!

fall is my favourite season, partly because that's when all the records
come out, but also because it makes you a little sad.  and the sadness
makes you feel special.  everyone  gets this way and it makes them all a
bit more interesting to talk to, which is also nice.  plus, fall means
going back to school and reinventing yourself to a degree, which is
always a fun for awhile.  another bonus of going back to school is the
anticipation of all the fun stuff to be learned that year, of course all
this wears off by winter, when you're sick to death of everyone and just
want to curl up and die and never look at a book again.

ha! what the rest of the list doesn't know is that deb and i went to
primary school together in godawful concorde ontario.  where i was
called exclusively by my last name (see above) and my classmates tried
to poison me.  also sinister teri went to kindergarten at this same
school several years earlier.  it's a small small world and apperantly
concorde ont. is the centre of it.  

BTW the vox night isn't exactly 100% different from blow up, it's just a
bit toned down.  that's all.
