nervous energy and laggard entry

[metawidget]

It’s been a good weekend — art opening on Friday night at Galérie l’Espace (it’s still open ‘til Tuesday... 19 prints and printy intstallations from up and coming artists), went, saw that, ran into a bunch of people from my print media days at Concordia (many of whom have been crawling around the same woodwork as me: Luke and Miriam in particular), went for beers and a large Giovan poutine at Copacabana (I hadn’t gotten around to eating since breakfast, a large was necessary) afterwards was hit on relentlessly by this thirtysomething antique-collector and bistro-guy... I guess I should be flattered ... caught and talked with Mike from Île Sans FIl about the wifi scene, video games and politics.

Saturday was cleaning, unsuccessful costume engineering, then a Birthday Incident for emjayne with food, vaguely familiar people, new LJites to watch (welcome goddessofjoi, kidlicious73 and balistic... I’m sure I’ve met Balistic before, maybe at cuz_mary_jane’s birthday do? ... and if anyone knows the username associated with Glenn [?] the sci-fi editor ... ) ... I have a lead on a cat, Noisette, who we may adopt over here in a week’s time or so.

Today [yesterday now]... marking, more cleaning, reading, procrastinating on the five hundred ideas flying in loose formation that is our prototype...

Today [now-today]... exam invigilation, class, give lab, meeting, program, mark.

I feel a little lot off kilter, still. But still going... like bicycling downhill on one of those ice cream bikes (which — useless trivia — I have done without injury from time to time). Friends, fun and work are all much appreciated these days.

Whee.

I am still interested in Noisette -- Saturday is probably best for me... I'll try and give you a shout at work tomorrow.

Great icon.

Haven't had a chance to post much recently, as I'm still waiting to get my Mac back from the shop.

Brazenly cropped, levelled and resized from emjayne's incident photos... pretty representative, really!

One animé userpic coming up... I think we'll be all catted out here, it'll be my first real kitten tutelage experience...

Found out the colocation place where my provider's e-mail server was had a little power issue -- if you sent the e-mail when they were running around checking to see that all the plugs were in sockets, it may have gotten shredded or bounced in there.
