Had a fairly busy night hanging out with friends. Afterwards, I felt scandalously hungry, so went to Jimmy's on 20th for a shawarma and olives. Well! That shawarma was the size of a small baby. No really! It easily weighed two pounds. Now normally I'm a light eater, but on this occasion I thought I'd apply myself, y'know, focus on the task and see ( Read more... )

I just found out that 3 of my polaroids were shown nation-wide on CBC last night. yay. However, one picture was cruelly cropped, but what can you expect from a bureaucrat? (<---that took several tries to spell right)

Regardless, it gave me a cheap thrill, and wrenched a twitching dry smile from my morose countenance. Leave a comment  3 

Chimera was awesome!... good turnout. Great music to enliven a monday in cowtown, and the venue was suitably dark and atmospheric. (could have done without the waterfall though ;) ) Looking forward to the next one ( Read more... )

Saturday was fun. I met a friend at Nellie's for eggs and conversation. Then we went out taking b&w photos for a couple hours.

Retrobution was fun on Saturday... big crowd. Lots of great songs..one or two cheeseball songs, but that's okay (and that's the point). Overall worth the price of admission (free). I seem to be feeling the lack of industrial/ebm there lately. Spoiled by Schlachthof. Regardless, the Warehouse is entertaining.. nice people, and the tunes are always ( Read more... )
