The Camping supply pile grows ever larger in our dining room

We are now just 2 days away from setting out for Montreal. This past week has been crazy busy at work for both Erin and I as we try and wrap up all the last minute things that need to be wrapped up before one takes off for almost a month. So here we are scheduling last minute meetings, working late, leaving instructions, designing last minute rave flyers and posters, accruing more lieu time and arranging for the plants to get watered and trying to visit as many people as possible in a short period of time we have left here in Toronto.

We ate what is most likely our last meal at Clinton's tonight for the foreseeable future. Sure gon' miss those Mexi-Burgers and Wings and Quiz Night and the friendly staff of our favourite local. 

I found a bunch of old Goth CDs tonight. Importing to iTunes furiously for the trip. The air is hot. The excitement is palpable

Erin at Clinton's

Fun Fact: We learned today Miquelon is actually made up of two large islands. One with 515 people and one with 1 guy. He died in 2006 though so no one lives on the second island, Langlade, at all - Except wild horses and seals -- and us for 1 night.

Today's Jam: Crucifixion by Actifed. c. 1984
From last.fm "Actifed were an early 1980’s     Post-Punk act on the Jungle Records label. They managed two releases. Unfortunately it is nearly impossible to pull band information or images from the web because they took their name from a known brand of sinus remedy. It should appeal to fans of 13th Chime, Southern Death Cult, Furyo, Sex Gang Children and others… As he did for SGC, on Actifed’s 1984 single Tony James (Generation X) has added his production to the bands sound."
