Thanks for the compliment on my set. I really appreciated it! 
One of the very best things thus far about Kingston is the thunderstorms. They are... incredible. There is not much that is sexier than a thunderstorm. The power behind the rolling thunder, the electricity flying through the air, the sensuality of the water pooring from the heavens. They were a truly rare occurance back home but here, we are getting at least one a week...

i love Thunderstorms. I wish we had more.
I was so looking forward to having a summer off, but you know, I am not sure what to do with myself while having this time off. I am in a new city, on the verge of being broke, and I am discovering that I am not so good with some sense or purpose of self. I am going to wander aimlessly again today and...

Gah! none of the books close to me have 123 pages! Here's the closest one that does.
"Similarly, you shouldn't feel shy about using doors labelled "Emergency Exit" or "Fire Exit" or even "No Exit", as long as no alarm is threatened."
Access All Areas: A user's guide to the art of Urban Exploring, by Ninjalicious.
You almost got an entry from a book about precious gems. But this was ontop of it.

The only things next to me are appointment books and tattoo mags.
Glad to hear you guys made it up okay. If you send your contact info to my e-mail, I'll pass it on to Wade and his to you.
Hugs.
Also: With the exception of the lilies, Jill's flowers are still alive and well. Hugh brought a bouquet of roses, lilies and a few other flowers for my birthday so I added them to yours. I now have one rockin' bouquet decorating my kitchen. Cheers.

We are sae and sonud in Kingston, and slowly but surely getting settled in. I live about 4 blocks from downtown and there looks like there is a plethera of choices for restaurants etc, the grocery store is close, as are the booze store and beer stores. The school seems to be close (walking there today to explore a little) and so far, we are...

Welcome to Kingston!
Places of Interest:
The Sleepless Goat; A coffee shop owned and operated by hippies. Good quesadilas.
Located on Princess just down from Wellington.
Novel Idea: The last indie book store in town. If they don't have it they can probably get it.
Located on the corner of Princess and Bagot.
The Brew Pub; Our local bewing company/pub. Their signature ale is Dragon's Breath Real Ale. It's damned good.
Located just above the corner of Brock and Ontario..
Madeline's: A candy shop that for some sketchy reason is open later than the bars. They sell candy and cigarettes. I suspect this includes 'nose candy'.
Located on the corner of Princess and Division.
There are about six sushi places in town. Take your pick. They're all pretty good.
VIP; The best takeout chinese in town. Look them up in the phone book.
Good walk-in lunch specials too. They're on Princess and university I believe. Or else near there.
There's more. Lemmie know if you're looking for anything in particular.

Congrats, hon.
Fuck, I feel so bad that I didn't get to give you and Jill proper 'going away' hugs. I hope your move goes smoothly. I'll send Wade's number to your e-mail as soon as I get a spare moment.
And tell Jills I lurves her and will miss her so. That's a special lady you got there.

yeah, if you look through some of my past journal entries you can probably tell I was feeling the same way (I just moved to mtl). I hope everything works out well for you in Kingston dude.
iamkrys:
You'll definitely be missed, hon. But, as you said, this is a great opportunity.
We are just two weeks away from the big move now... I am more stressed about surviving the next two weeks at the inlaws than I am about the move... sadly Jill is very stressed about the move... at least we are stressed about different things =) onward and upward... to infinity and beyond =)

They just anoy me. Music/personality wise. They're like a bunch of Howard Sterns.
And though I hate the song 'Sedated' I will give them credit for releasing one of the first really controversal music videos ever.

Sometimes there is so much pain and love and anger and hope and helplessness and.... and... and... built up inside me that I justw ant to scream and let it all out... to let the memories that haunt me run their way out into the world and take a physical form so I can confront them and try and find answers for the unanswerable...

It's the things that aren't concrete that are always going to be the greatest and most trying things in life. I'm well familiar with the feeling of wanting them to be so you can boot-fuck them, though.
Cute new user pic. Look at you looking all taxi driver and shit. ^_^

A couple of days ago in the Globe and Mail, this story this story ran. Horray for hackers! Sadly the commentary afterwards left a lot to be desired, the pro-harper camp proving just how much of a sense of humour our new conservatives possess. The sad truth of it is however, that Harper, through his new system of freeing up taxes on the welltodo and...
