whoo doggy, where to begin ...
so, this place is awesome. that must preface everything.
it is gorgeous, everybody is happy, every single girl is good looking and most of the guys are good looking. bi-sexuality seems more appealing with each passing day.
my home is amazing. my cooking has improved exponentially.
work is interesting.
life is just ... you know, good.
adventures:
a) Concertland.
good lord, clubs and concerts here are good. I found my bar ... it is a purely french place which serves $2.50 shots of tequila and turns into a clothing store by day. Marissa (not negin: it was late when I wrote this and I was very drunk) and I danced there. we had fun.
I saw Japanther a few days ago and it was good. I just got back from Duchess Says. Jesus fuck. seriously. fuck jesus. that was good. energy is seriously underrated. Doug has a good thing going on. SLUM records is, most likely, going places.
b) bikingland.
so I decided that, rather than taking transit for an hour and a half, I would bike the 35 km to work. All went well the first day. The ride is beautiful (if long) and I found myself surprising capable of riding 70km a day. well, that is a little untrue. I could not make the last 5 km yesterday and had to eat three slices of pizze to regain balance. but otherwise good.
today ... today sucked.
I blew a tire, not unexpectedly, with all the glass and potholes, but I was retardedly unprepared. I tried riding on a busted tire. That sucked. So I walked. I found a depanneur, got a bunch of wildcat, got drunk and kept walking. I tried riding again. A mix of alcohol and grass made it seem okay. I haven't actually looked at my front tire yet. But the rides were short lived. Riding a street bike on grass with a flat tire while drunk is hard. really really hard.
I walked and walked and walked. I starting yelling at nobody in particular. Old ladies looked at me funny.
I found a store that sold more beer and bought a six pack. During flirtations with the cashier I found out that there was a metro near by and that bikes were allowed on. Victory. I was going to duchess says! (if I had had to walk, which I assumed I would, it would have taken me another 2 hours to get home. as it was I did not arrive until 10:30).
I got come, drank on of the six pack, watched some Casanova and headed to the club. As I attempted to pay, the guy closed the money box and walked away. so, it seems that the night was free. To make amends I bought a cd.
c) myhouseland
I lucked out. my roomates rule. the boyfriend of marie, the parisian, just got a place with a 2500 square foot backyard. If they make me leave I will cut myself.
sleep now.
goodnight moon.

Passport. Bar Passport on Rue St Denise (sp?)that is your "local"...
i'm happy to hear that you're so happy in mtl, mat. i want to visit you, maybe near the end of the summer. if not, definitely during the fall.
i'm supposed to be finishing my last paper right now, but -- this always seems to happen when i'm supposed to be writing papers -- i've gotten myself in the middle of an active discussion in the #IT forums. my hobby of finding things racist is in full swing. i assume you've seen my last blog entry. knowing as i do that you find my hobby humorous, do you have an opinion?
Matt, thank for your concern for my life. I don't think I will ACTUALLY die in Elfred's absense though I might come close. I wonder if I can plan a weekend to Montreal in June? Is any time better or not for you? I need to get out of here, I need to see my friends. I love Toronto, but there a but BUT...
