What a stupid night. I'd blame it on the full moon if there was one. Parades, gunfire, lost shoes, bad reservation taking by my boss (Thanks for that you twit!), drunks trying to swing from my horse's face.....

I'm going to bed.

I'm going to take a camper van full of my favourite people to play in the ocean on Sunday. There, now that feels...

I love living on the coast. I love that I was born on the coast. The smell of wet peat, and cedar boughs is home to me. I'm reminded of it by all the people who visit who have never even seen a bald eagle before. Their wonder keeps me appreciative of where I am. It's easy to sour in your hometown, but I meet...

I'm really sick of horses today. Shame on me.

I'm going brown.

I'm going to tighten the trucks on my rollerskates now, and take out the recycling. Then I'm going to skate somewhere. To the peeler bar I think. I want to see some professional pussy.

MUAH.

My job is like acting. It IS acting. I become the person my passengers want me to be. That is how I get tipped well. If they are bigots though, I draw the line at joining them. Actually I don't speak to bigots.

I had some awesome "living-large" people hire me for two hours last night. The two hours consisted of their drinking lots of...

My last post, by the way, was not a jab at American tourists, just the occasional pain-in-the-ass person in general.

Day after Canada day. I worked it. It is kind of fun driving through crowds of people with a charging, 2600 pound shire mare. Perverse, but fun. To not tempt fate too much, we shut down well before the fireworks. I wove through the melee...

A very happy Solstice everyone. I hope it finds you well. Feast with your loved ones and take in as much daylight as possible. As of today, the Dark gets stronger again.

Today is rainy. It's a nice rain because it isn't cold. Being a tour guide in the rain sucks only because my people complain, and blame the rain on me. I tell them...

Go to the gym, ride some horses, visit friends, and rollerskate to work. Life is so rough right now. I'm covered head to toe in dirt all the time. Summer rocks.

I'm becoming less and less politically correct in my old age.

Never apologize and never explain. If someone has a problem with something you cannot go back and change, but will never touch again, the weakness is not yours, but theirs.

Now this is just getting outrageous.

Did you hear about the guy who was stopped at the border yesterday? They confiscated a protractor, compass, calculator, and mechanical pencil.

Then they arrested him for possessing weapons of Math Instruction.

I used to only eat meat that was cooked black. Now I've discovered the joys of bloody flesh. We went for sushi last night at a place that serves venison tataki. What is that, you ask? It is deer meat that has been only briefly seared, cut thinly, and arranged in the most delicious ponzu-like sauce. Thin, bloody game meat is sexy food.

I finally...
