[Gone the grey I say]
First off, I’m getting ready to purge my friends list at Livejournal, and the last information gathering stage on that is this blog. If anyone reads this via a feedreader or bookmark or something else that is NOT Livejournal’s syndication feature, *and* has never commented here, please comment on this entry or email me at not the myth at gmail dot com (no spaces, etc.) You can go back to lurking, I promise. I just want to know who’s here.
Now, on to the business of blog. This weekend I took a much-needed trip out of the country …more or less. (I just went to Abbotsford, and from there you can practically spit and hit the States.) There are pictures, and, as always, click through to Flickr to embiggen.
The drive up on Friday was slow but pretty…
…and there was the reward of poutine at the end.
I had gone up for my friend’s birthday. Here she is introducing Harry Potter (by way of book 7 on CD) to her dog:
I gave her a Slytherin scarf. God willing I will never have to knit one of those things again. (This was my third.)
Sunday we went to sushi. Mine came on a bridge.
It was also exceedingly tasty, especially since they were kind enough to make it ‘nude’, that is, without seaweed, to which I am allergic. Basically, I go up to Canada to eat. I also may have bought some chocolate, but only enough to get me through til I go up again at Thanksgiving.
I’ve been listening to a lot of Spring Awakening & The Secret Garden lately. I think it’s out of winter denial. Last year when I went up for Thanksgiving it snowed, which is fine by me. I’d rather deal with snow than endless drizzle.
Oh, the perils of the Pacific Northwest!

I read you on Google Reader, and haven’t commented before, so I guess I’ve been kind of invisible until now, right?
That sushi looks so amazing. I’m always impressed by the preparation, even if I’m not such a huge fan of fish. What are the pieces in the middle? I’ve never seen those before…

You were safe anyway, but thanks for commenting!
It was a spicy tuna roll, and it looks a little different because of the sauce, probably, and because it’s made without seaweed.

Yeah, I think you’re probably safe

This is true business. And since I just decided to not get bookshelves yet, I can better afford it. Any suggestions where to get started shopping for one?
