There is something seriously creepy about boarding an empty train, even though the platform is full of people. As far as I could tell, there wasn’t another person on the entire thing – I was all alone.

Naturally, the only thing to do in this situation is dance.

I had to dance quickly, because I was only going one stop. I did a jig, I tried some pole dancing (which, to be honest, was really more like pole flailing), and I may or may not have done the “I’m the king of the world!” thing from Titanic which I have never actually seen so imagine it as done on a train, without Leonard DiCaprio, and full of anachronistic inconsistencies.

The Georgia Straight with my interview in it has hit the streets, so I grabbed a copy for my own amusement and to add to my collection of my fleeting moments of fame. I love seeing my name in print – it satisfies me on so many different levels. Clearly, I should try to get interviewed more. I have so many important things to say!

Last Friday I dragged Ed to the glasses store to help me pick out some frames for some prescription sunglasses. I don’t *need* to wear my glasses when I’m driving, but it helps a little and makes things easier if my eyes are tired or bloodshot from doing blow off the body of a naked hooker. I never wear my glasses when scooting, because I need to keep my eyes shaded – so with the intent of birds and stones and double whammies, I decided it was time to get some fancy sunglasses instead of the dozens of crappy blurry pairs I’ve picked up over the years.

Holy hell, why didn’t anyone TELL me that prescription sunglasses were the greatest things ever? I can SEE. I can see, and I don’t need to squint. They are so awesome. I was able to pick them up that evening, so I’ve been spending as much time as possible outside, staring at the sun. I got two pairs thanks to the sale and my work benefits, so now I can choose between stylish and futuristic. I love them. I’d wear them indoors if I wasn’t afraid of giving people yet another reason to avoid me in the halls.

i'm gonna learn how to fly
