  • 5 Bars

    That’s how many made it to in just a few hours:
    september 25 2009
    – at one of them my drink tasted like lavender
    – danced it up at another
    – at another I got obsessed with this married guy pitching hard to get the girl on the other end of his phone, hiding his wedding ring
    – walking through the Entertainment District I exclaimed “oh I’ve missed this” and I have, the busyness of this area late-night.  I’ve got to get here real soon to do “Exploring the Entertainment Disctrict Late Night” before all the students run out of money
    – was asked by the club’s photographer if I was a cop
    – the VIP bottle service at this upstairs place on John Street was the saddest VIP area I have ever seen.  It was there that when my friend asked the DJ “can you wish our friend a happy birthday?” the response was “I don’t have a microphone”.  We were dying.

  • An Inpromtu Dinner

    It was very random, very delicious, way fancier than I thought, I quite liked the duck sauce. Thanks lady, and great meeting you two!  Here’s what we disovered:

    – Sobey’s is much more Canadian than the Metro
    – crack is approximately $7/hit, many hits a day are needed
    – we all have Bolds and good luck getting us to switch from BB
    – invite me for dinner, I always do the dishes as you know
    – being a consultant to the Logistics Analytics Dept. for the East Coast Division is a BFD 

  • Me Today

    That’s something I bought in the summer of ’07 because I’d seen an infomercial for it in the spring.  It’s a QuikPod, it was too weak for my big camera but fits my new one just right.
     
    And re: this tweet about who I met yesterday, look at my nails.  That’s what I used to shake hands with when I met Anne, “publisher and editor-in-chief of TraveltoWellness.com, the FIRST and only editorially-driven monthly online magazine for wellness-minded travelers”.

  • I’m Reading This

    It just came out, and being a longtime fan of course I bought it, and it’s fantastic.  And guess who’s coming to Toronto next week SICK; we’re going.

  • Toronto’s Oldest Restaurant

    It’s the Senator Restaurant on Victoria Street, click here for their day menu and some history.

    It’s 2 seconds away from Dundas Square and go, it’s like walking back in time… so much that when a movie is shooting in Toronto and they need an olden-times set, they rent this place.  Also, it smells exactly like the News Cafe.


    I decided on pecan pie and milk.
