So, uh, yeah. I guess an update is in order.

I like lists sometimes. They make things so much easier.

2) I caught a glimpse of the Perseid meteor shower while at the beach with a friend this evening. Even with the bright moon and a crapload of pollution (both smog and light), I caught ifive shooting stars. Cool.

3) Chris and I headed to Taste Of The Danforth today (really? The largest street festival in the world? I think Wikipedia is lying on this one) with a couple of folks. I was silly enough to buy greek pastry treats (mmm) from a vendor other than my favourite greek bakery (the Athena), but still ate assloads. Minimal sunburn. Too many effing people. Jerks.

4) In keeping with my recent lapse into a childhood speech impediment (switching the first consonants of two words -- ie, instead of "shopping for treats," I will burst out with "tropping for sheats") with frightening regularity, I have also taken to occasionally saying words backwards. The other day. I was horrified when I gathered ingredients for a lettuce-less greek salad, check the fridge and when spying some still-healthy strawberry tomatoes, I exclaimed, "Oh, doog!" with great relish. Chris' response: "Did you just call me 'dude'?"

5) About a half an hour ago, Chris announced he wasn't tired and came up to watch TV. I suggested we go completely apeshit and indulge in a very rare treat of late-night pizza. He's asleep on the couch as I type this. So much for late-night pizza. Jerk.

6) Allergy season has begun. Already I can feel myself mentally psyching myself to stab myself in the heart with chopsticks.
