<-- my life, by webgoddesscathy --> :: Thursday, April 08, 2004 :: Sometimes I love Toronto. I was thinking this last night as I walked near Yonge and Eglinton on my way "home" to Theresa's. I could see my breath in the crisp cold night, hear my heels clicking down the quiet street. I was just returning from a lovely night of amazing food and fantastic theatre, all in the company of a great friend and I was on my way to stay with yet another great friend. It all seemed to slip on like a soft leather glove. The bright lights of the city twinkling through the trees against the dark starry sky... this is my Toronto. And today, I walked down the street, grabbed myself a mobile phone (cell phone, cell phone, WHEN did I start calling it a mobile?), jumped on the subway to the GoTransit station where I hopped on a train to Burlington. Easy as pie. Now my brother and I are watching the Leaf's game together (ahem - you see how well I'm watching?). He is reminding me how much I love hockey. Sadly, I found out that Hoglund doesn't play anymore... :: Cathy 6:47 PM [+] :: 0 comments :: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 :: Just saw Hairspray (just the preview, it actually only opens tomorrow night) and it was a RIOT! Totally loved it. Funny, good music, beautiful, kitschy. A little rough around the edges in some spots, but it should polish up with practice. And I have another job. Yes, two jobs. The second is a temporary job (2 weeks) with a bank, doing admin for their World Markets division. Should be interesting to wear business clothes again... :: Cathy 9:22 PM [+] :: 0 comments Tonight I'm meeting up with Jane to see Hairspray. Very excited! Plus, the weather in Toronto is looking up. It's about 4 degrees. Well, at least it's not in the negatives. However, I'm still wearing lots of wool sweaters. Can you hear that? That's the sound of me frowning, unhappy about the wool sweaters. But at least I have a Web contract now, working for SharpMedia on a very cool indie music project. It's only part-time, so I'm still looking, but it'll be good to get some money in my pocket, after the bank-emptying ordeal that was Australia. I betcha they're not wearing wool sweaters in Australia... :: Cathy 10:48 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Tuesday, April 06, 2004 :: I have created an Ofoto gallery for my Rotorua NZ rafting photos. However, sadly you have to INVITE everyone to the gallery manually. So, if you didn't receive an invite, let me know. I'll put the good photos up on this site soon, anyway. (And by "soon" I mean it could take a year.) UPDATE: Photos can now be found in my Flickr account. Click here for the rafting photos. You'll be happy to know that I'm not feeling as horrible as yesterday. NeoCitran does work. Today I will actually go outside. I will brave the elements and the subway (mmmm, Eglinton subway station has a Cinnabon, I forgot that Cinnabon is one of the best things about Canada until Tree brought one home last night!) and suffer myself to wear several layers of sweaters and meet up with an old colleague in a really great part of town for coffee. Then I'll look at getting a mobile phone so that people can actually get a hold of me... I know that there are millions of people out there just waiting with baited breath for me to get a phone so that they can offer me a job... ps: I would like to thank Theresa and Josh for having yummy tea at their house. And I just met the GroceryGateway man, so I now have milk for my vanilla tea. "Food is a delicious lie that makes us believe that heaven is here on earth." :: Cathy 6:50 AM [+] :: :: Monday, April 05, 2004 :: I am sick. I have a migraine and I'm pretty sure I have the flu again. I am very sad about this. Jaap, of course, believes that it is because I miss him. The good news is that I don't have to do anything today but geek-out on Theresa's computer. And internet access on her computer is fast and unlimited. I love Canada! Well, let me rephrase: I love Canadian Internet access. Unfortunately, today it is -3 degrees and feels like -12 with the windchill, etc. Nasty! At least it's sunny and I'm inside. Theresa's house is just beautiful! It's at Yonge and Eglinton, a lovely part of the city. I'm sitting in a sun-filled room attached to "my room", looking out the huge window at swaying pine trees. Quite relaxing. However, I'm quite sure that I have a fever because I'm boiling hot and the temperature gauge beside me reads 20 degrees. Well, it's better than being cold, I guess. At least it didn't hit me yesterday, so I could enjoy an AMAZING shopping trip with Matt and Kendra. I managed to get Matt to buy the most amazing jeans and shirts at Guess. I love Guess. What a good look for him. I'm a GOOD shopper! Now off to find a job... :: Cathy 7:26 AM [+] :: 0 comments :: Sunday, April 04, 2004 :: Update: :: Cathy 6:39 AM [+] :: 0 comments
