centre of the universe - the dreaming: And the rest, here on cenobyte's isle....

06/17/2008: "And the rest, here on cenobyte's isle...." Jay Ingram said to say hi to Saskatchewan for him. So, um, hi from Jay. He has a new book coming out, with penguins on (and, strangely enough, published by Penguin Canada). Hopefully I'll be interviewing him when that comes out. He signed me a copy of his honey book.

I saw my new BFF, Dave Foley about three more times at the hotel. I think he's stalking me. I also think he's in need of cash, because he appears to only own one suit jacket, and it's a rather...well...it's certainly not a suit jacket I would want to wear. I think he may have picked it up at CBC, back when he was leaving and they told him he could take *just one thing* out of wardrobe.

Toronto was incredibly fun (and thank you to DK for the rickshaw ride on Sunday. I don't think my feet could have handled the trip back to the hotel without some serious intervention, and while I'm not adverse to wearing barefeet in downtown Toronto, I think that may be a treat reserved only for Stinky Jim and Black-eyed Pearl, whom I met outside the convention centre.

Plaisir. Anything to keep your bearfeet from colliding with the streets of The Big Smoke is probably in my job description. I actually felt quite smug smiling and waving to the adoring masses while sitting next to the Queen...of the Silver Dollar.

Actually, the second-best thing about the trip (next to the companionship), was being able to go out to the cafés and bars and stay as long as one liked (or until the beer money ran out) and not being driven out by the smoke and not coming home smelling like an ashtray and having to hang one's clothes out the window and have another couple of showers. It was terrific. Civilization is threatening to arrive after all.
