well..here's an update, i actually am going to chicago for july! very exciting. it's kind of sudden and i have to get there really soon so i don't miss more class. however... yaay, the midwest. a new city. the lake. come to lollapalooza with me in early august and we can see kanye. i will try to make reservations to attend a taping of oprah. i miss everyone, and this city, already. edit: who knew that mentioning the name lollapalooza is such a fucking faux-pas? SORRY if you went when you were 12. anyway. | | Friday, March 10th, 2006 | | 5:36 pm |
daniel's experience of the frigo vert, friday march 10th: [the child] just stood there looking arrogantly at me, ...i kept getting mad at all the people who were there, after that jarring entry..because they're weird. maybe i was in a bad mood...but i wasn't really.. and then bronwen was in a meeting, so i went to al-taib and ate a giant meal. and then i had my tutoring. and then i went back and saw bronwen. "how is she?" oh, she seemed a little flustered. she kept saying she was gonna do something, but then she would just stand there.. she said she was going to some church after..she said she'd be back around 8, so that probably means midnight. back to me, i am having a very exciting day. i woke up in a fancy b'n'b (castel durocher) with the so-competent heather hayes manning the deck. she was running an entire business all by herself, it was insane. she also gave me fancy bitter chocolates, which has prompted me to eat chocolate all day to re-create the taste. last night we saw a film screening by qpirg, for social justice days. i really liked the movie..it was about a neighbourhood, i think in d.c., which was being fought over between gays, african-americans and other groups that all hated each other. it had a surprisingly heartwarming ending. then i started to wonder if it was actually fictional..??? anyway, it was a lovely time, followed by more great moments with marina and hea. best part: eating canned pineapple, using the shiatsu massage chair..conversation, etc. it would have been nice to go to nyc for the weekend, and i'm still pretty sad i didn't go/am not there right now. if i could track down jj, things might be different. but she's an enigma wrapped in a conundrum, slathered in mystery sauce, as someone wrote in the 'encounters' section of craigslist the other day. where is she? i'm at st. andre to give love/drop off rainboots to those who live here. i think i have to stop writing these things - i hate it. also, mental note: i need to make more clear mental distinctions between the night and the day. day = doing productive things. night = it gets dark and you hang out. ok, ok..i'm done | | Thursday, February 23rd, 2006 | | 2:36 am |
ok, so here's an update. today i woke up at 9:30 to have breakfast with my baby step-cousin, who was wearing a frilly pink dress and celebrating her 5th birthday. actually she's turning 20 and is 12 inches taller than me, literally. we went to chez cora. it was nice and i scammed the sherbrooke bus with a fake transfer and so wasn't even very late. when she was leaving, i was musing to myself and forgot to look out the window and wave as she left, which i then hated myself for because we all waved to my sister when she left and it was cute and i'm sure my step-cousin was disappointed. and it was her birthday! anyway, she's really nice and i love her. she gets straight A's and i don't, and my dad constantly tells me that. but..whatever. also, she's graduating at the exact same time i am and is 2 and a half years younger. but..i guess that's ok. anyway, that doesn't leave me with much space to describe the rest of my amazing day. i started walking home and couldn't decide whether to go have a nap immediately or do many productive things while the day was still young. but then logic won out and i went to the native friendship centre, where i just started to volunteer, and had a meeting with the girl who works there. she is a friend of my friend julien. and she's from vancouver and only 21 - why is everyone younger than me and more accomplished suddenly? then i went home and eased jj through the process of waking up and going to school - telling her the time (1:00), letting margo in the door because she was in the shower, serving margo a glass of tap water like the fine hostess i am, helping jj choose an outfit. it was nice. i have these white jeans from old navy that i bought when i was approx. 16 and never wore, and i tried today for the first time, and j called me on it and called me 'schluffy.' so i just wore the normal ones. then..i left and did a bunch of stuff. and i tried to apply for some jobs. then i came home and did a bunch more stuff, including cook dinner, and burnt a giant pot of carrots. i tried to let the smoke out the porch door and stepped in kitty spudson's water and spilled it everywhere. anyway, i ended the night by doing some ink drawings and some drawings of knives, and hearing the story of dr fagnew's extended family, and mispronouncing things, and sitting on the little couch with my sister and dr fag although there was a whole room and another couch that we could have sprawled on. i tried so hard to convince dr fag to come to the cock'n'bull with me and my sis, since we had a plan to cruise there in my dad's car, but she would have none of it. she ended up forcing us out of the bathroom, wearing only a tiny shirt, as the shower was running and we were begging her shamelessly to put her pants back on and come. heartless. then sis and i drove to the cock'n'bull for what was supposed to be half an hour, and ended up staying for 2 hours and dancing insanely to karaoke with stars like dennis, mel, liz and other exciting people who will go unnamed. chelle had to drive back cuz i am slightly drunk, even as i write this, and might be mad at me, and we listened to dr. dre, as planned. i am staying at her house tonight because i don't have pepper spray on me. that was the most nerve-wracking thing i've ever done. for the record, chelle = rochelle r. = my sister. can people please try to remember this and not act shocked every time they find out? i keep having to tell the story of how she was nice to me as a child and how we are still friends to this day - like, every day. try to remember. just kidding..i guess.. i will tell you all the story some other day, perhaps. love, madamemalchance | | Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006 | | 2:58 am |
ok, ok. i think i'm gonna start actually writing in this sometimes. this is inspired by two people: a)kitty h. b)cee strauss. therefore, i dedicate future entries to them. oh my god, i have to go to bed. my little step-cousin's birthday is tomorrow morning and i'm supposed to meet her at 9:30 for breakfast. | | Thursday, January 22nd, 1970 | | 5:43 am |
