A Great Weekend





+ Seeing A Serious Man
+ Dinner at Live
+ A visit to Algonquin Provincial Park, where we saw a beaver making his way through the water, wood in mouth, to repair his house just before sunset
+ Discovering White Lotus and their delicious vegan spring rolls and lemongrass "chicken"
+ Continuing reading Bicycle Diaries by David Byrne

Last night I saw Growing and Fuck Buttons at the El Mocambo, and am looking forward to seeing some films at the Canadian Labour International Film Festival (CLiFF) at the Bloor Cinema later this week.

The Return




I have spent the last two months or so getting used to starting life in a new country (hence my lack of posting). Toronto has been very kind to me so far: I have number of job interviews lined up, T and I are living in a wonderful apartment right where we wanted to be, and it has been so wonderful being able to see old friends, and get to know new ones. I feel really lucky to be here, and am excited about the possibilities of life in Canada.
