My turn to say thank YOU!
Good idea to save the absinthe for a special occasion, just make sure you're not going anywhere for awhile.
(last time I drank absinthe was before I went to the bat cave in NYC...interesting night from what I was told..)
mmm..martinis. One of my vices too.

The Gods with equal eyes on mortal look,
He justly was forsaken, who forsook:
Wanted that succour, he refus'd to lend,
Found ev'ry fellow such another friend:
No wonder, if he roar'd that all might hear;
His elocution was increas'd by fear:
I heard, I ran, I found him out of breath,
Pale, trembling, and half dead with fear of death.
Though he had judg'd...

I was beginning to feel transparent, washed out and cold. the greyness was seeping through me like cold through a windowpane on a december night. All this darkness makes me pine for the night, but I need warmth, and I'm not gonna get any for a looong time. I woke up to a headache but everything's gonn be okay...

Glad you had a nice time in Montreal. NSCAD? what's that? *scratching head*
I am on MSN from time to time and it must be bad timing, because I never see you there.
*hug*

when are you coming to california?
silencenoir:
So from reading yours and Saruman's journal, I take it you had a great time in Montreal, eh? I'm glad
I couldn't help out too much, sorry about that. I'm not actually from there, just have family over there. Tried to ask my man but when I did it was too late, you had already left.
Anyhow miss hearing from you! Hope you're well and all that good stuff.

life on the road, cheap hotels and rental cars....strange people and strange bars. I sometimes revel in the anonymity of it all the newness and the possibility...when you are all alone and far away from home do you act differently? I don't. I guess I'm lucky(?) to be able to be myself when I;m home, so I don't fell th eneed to "cut loose" when...

saruman:
There are some places between sherbrooke and mt-royal on St Laurent that come to mind to. My late-20s early 30s anglo hipster freinds tend to go to a place called blizzart, it's on st-laurent and they have something that might interest you.
http://www.spectacle.ca/groove/Venue.exl/id/1076
All the really huge clubs and after hours center around ste catherine street especially east of the main (st-laurent) all the way to the end of the (gay) village.
As I also mentionned, a lot of the university crowd hangs out on Crescent street. So much that it's almost a joke. Irish pubs abound on Bishop, one street east.
If you have money to burn, the two blocks north of sherbrooke on st-laurent should cover that.
Strip Clubs (they're a common attraction to Montreal) are usually on ste-catherine. The farther east from the main you go, the seedier.
There are tons of good places for beers. Of course the irish pubs are amongst them but there's also all the brewpubs and quite a few cheap bar (and dives.)
St-Laurent street is anglo central, second only to Crescent in english unilinguism. St-Denis is french central.
Mont-Royal is an interesting street to shop or eat on. Much variety depending on where on the street you go.
Ste-Catherine is probably the busiest shopping street in Montreal. Around University and a few block west, all the high-end stores abound.
If you'll be driving, the fastest way to cut through downtown (outside rush hour) is rene-levesque, one block south ot ste-catherine, it's wide and not a one way. The orange metro line follows under the blocks directly south of the street. The Green metro line follows Maisonneuve (one block north of ste-catherine.)
If you take the subway (metro,) it closes at 1h30 on week-ends, bar close at 3. Cab fare to downtown from anywhere you'd want to go out would be between 6 and 12$, including a couple dollar of tips. Night buses suck and DUI will land you in jail, at least overnight. Of course, Downtown, you can always walk.
So, hmm, questions?

So, how was Montreal? ;-)
well, what an awful week.
I had to fess up to my girl about my little "indiscretion" this summer, and although I had always planned to, my hand got forced, and I had to tell her earlier than I wanted. she was BULLSHIT!! ugh. I'm not going to lose her, but I'll be in the doghouse for a looooong time...I may even have to leave...

heavens, that's no good. i hope you two sort it out.
blasfemme:
i'm thinking and sending the best thoughts your way. i really hope the two of you work it out. i lost my marriage due to a similar thing and it makes me sad to think that although i was wrong for my indiscretion, my marriage wasn't strong enough to survive it.
i know you guys aren't married but love should always be the same...
