OK, so I’m being bad about updating again. I plead summertime and easy living as my excuse.
Things going through my head recently:
- A long time ago I bought a bunch of “snack bags” (small, sealable plastic bags) on the presumption that there were sandwich-sized or so. They were not, and so since that day they’ve been hanging around my apartment with nothing to do… until today! For today I have determined that they are the perfect size for a coffeemaker’s worth of grounds, which is a very handy thing indeed when one is taking one’s show on the road.
- I feel like I should say something about the Canadian federal scene these days, but really, I got nothing. Conventional wisdom of the moment seems to suggest that Duceppe is going to resign from the Bloc in order to lead the now-headless Pequistes, thereby throwing his party into confusion and sounding the death knell for Charest’s priemereship. This, in turn, probably means a weaker opposition coalition in Parliament, and possibly a weaker Bloc next federal election. (Those votes would, I suspect, go to the NDPs rather than the Libs or the Conservatives, but that’s just a feeling I have and possibly wishful thinking.)
- I’ve been reading a lot of hackish books lately. I should stop, because at some point my neighbours are going to start wondering who I’m shouting “You hack!” at.
Anyhow, coffee’s ready. Time to get to work.
