Had a pleasant evening with one of my high school friends (outside of LJSpace), talked politics, religion, work, the future, grey hairs, gossip... I'm glad I met up with him, and it's been a while since I've sat down with just him and talked. He's mellowed a bunch since high school, I enjoyed myself more than I thought I would, even.

I smell like smoke now, though. I can't wait 'til all cafés and bars become smoke-free in the spring.

Oh, randomly: Go on the CBC had Peter Mackay on as a guest this morning, and I was really disappointed that they didn't humiliate him any. Really. I'm this close to writing a letter demanding they stop making him look good (for those of you who don't know, I dislike Peter Mackay with almost the intensity that dzuunmod likes Pierre Pettigrew).

I've always wondered why Mackay's gotten such a free ride. He was Harper's Trojan Horse, and living proof of just how machiavellian the Conservatives are -- a crucial issue when they're campaigning on their credibility. Then there was that moronic "knitting" comment he made the other day.

I think they're just being nice to him because he looks like Wayne Gretzky.

'Twill be nice when the cafés and clubs free. A lot of people are grumbling, but I might start going out again when I can breathe the air.

It has always amused me that our foreign minister has the same name as one of the main snivelly villains in Harry Potter (or vice versa, if you prefer).
