You said "my life's like a bad movie"



And so it goes, another month, another singular update. The infrequent nature of my posts would lead one to believe that each post would be full of information and sweeping news of change and revolution in my life, but they aren't. They just aren't.

So here I sit, in this frigid February weather, with a warm pot of tea next to me and little frozen bits of ice flying sideways through the air outside my window. I think a few people got a little too excited by that "warm" spell we had. I think a few people made the mistake of daring to hope winter was dying. I think a few people are pretty disappointed.

My life hasn't been all that update worthy lately. I just work a lot. I spend a lot of my free time with my girlfriend. I'm putting disgusting amounts of mileage on my car.

Went to Montreal though. It was my first time really being in Montreal. I've driven through the edges of it several times on my journeys, even going so far as to stay in a Hotel somewhere along the southern edge. So I finally experienced the city. What a beautiful, cold city it is. Explored the older sections and the underground. Took the Metro. I like it there. The trip was capped off with a visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art. Claude Tousignant's work was on display. I became rather interesting to the prowling security folks because of the camera I had on..Imagine appreciating a piece of art, then looking to your left directly into the eyes of a staring, suspicious individual, who immediately glances away. A little disconcerting.

Work on the East Coast Movie continues to chug along. A little tedious at times, but quite hilarious as well. We have gotten rough work as far as Day 7 now, and it's funny watching ourselves transform into babbling psychotic shells of ourselves as the trip wears on. I can't wait until we get to week two.

I don't know if I ever addressed the fact that I never moved into Matt's place. Because I never did it. I decided his place wasn't set up for three people to live in. Because it isn't. Only two bedrooms. Now my girlfriend wants me to move out West for the summer. I really do want to do it..I've just never lived with a girl before. That's the only cause for my reluctance. I will be thinking about this a lot this next little while.
