another saturday night

Hmm.  To make up for last Saturday night my good friend Rebecca agreed to stay over and make the weekend something worth living.  My Saturday ended up being excellent.  If anyone was wondering, here are the ingredients for a good day:

1 morning phone call from a wonderful Mexican

5 new songs written by a dear friend

1 crazy motivated cleaning spree

1 sweet and solidaritous red-haired Mennonite 

10 000 veggies chopped into a salad

2 chocolate desserts

1 british movie involving soccer and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers

beer to taste

The only thing not accomplished last night was going out dancing.  By the time we decided to go out, the rain had made up its mind to change to wet flurries and buffet us with horribleness as we wandered the streets.  Kudos to all those club-goers and club-hawkers who actually stayed out. We pretty much ran home.  Toronto clubbers meet Toronto weather, and we blinked first.

We were up today before 8am, which strangely I am quite happy about. It took me about 3 hours to get through Chapter 35 of Daniel Deronda, making notes and whatnot.  Before retiring to my freshly-made lunch, I will make some general observations:

General Observations

Fresh air makes a body happy

Being up for a beer is a good quality in a person

Tuna is delicious

What is labelled "spicy" in the supermarket really isn't at all 

Computer viruses are freaky 

Cashews are genius in salads

My music collection is not bad

I need to be more tolerant of people
