canada day?

according to central park summer stage, it's canada day today, june 25th. i do love the attention paid to detail. anyway, so i'll do 2 canada days-- one today, and one july 1st-- yes, that's right, that's the REAL one. not that it doesn't feel like a real canada day today, all rainy and grey. all i am missing is some fish and chips wrapped in newspaper, and i'd be just spiffy under my umbrella. after all, i've already had weet-a-bix for breakfast.

anyway, today is day one of a brand new start in new york for yours truly. i'll have to tell you the story of what i mean by that another time, but just take it on trust that it is. i have 2 whole canadian friends to meet in the park (equally mystified by the twice celebrated holiday), i have an afternoon of fabulous music awaiting me, and best yet: i have an excuse to leave my apartment. work has kept me prisoner in here far too long. i'm going to have fun.



RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME: i am presently engrossed in 3 linguistics textbooks.
