- Nellie’s vacations are always bittersweet for me. As an introvert I love the alone time, but I always miss her too.
- Two years after I saw Once for the first time, I watched it again. Still just as amazing. The scene in the music store where he teaches her “Falling Slowly” gave me chills, just like it did the first time.
- The city of Toronto is holding a design contest for a revamped north building at St. Lawrence Market. Good. I love the farmer’s market on Saturdays, but that building is both hideous and a logistical nightmare.
- Eighteen pound cats do not enjoy falling into bathtubs full of water. They enjoy it even less when their owner takes too long drying them off because he’s nearly strained a rib muscle from laughing.
- The Santa Claus parade seems ridiculously out of place when it’s foggy and 14 degrees. Oh, and fucking November.
- That said, I’m excited that Swiss Chalet has the festive special up and running already.
- There are few three-word sentences in moviedom as cool as “Gregor fucked us.”
- If I ever own a house I’m going to make my living room into a replica of Cumbrae’s, complete with butchers and bags — bags, people — of pulled pork.
- My team was teh suck last night (except for Carey Price) and hasn’t been very good at all this year.
