Healing

I woke up with a song in my head yesterday morning and have begun to sing again.

I have a new cat who has a new name. His previous name did not, as my friend pointed out, suit his magnificant and handsome presence. Would you worship an animal named "Peanut"? I didn't think so. Nonetheless, the new name incorporates it, so he will know that I know who he in fact is, or was.



My thesis is rolling along with the inspiration of Spring.

Spring in Ottawa feels more inevitable than it did in Montreal. In Montreal spring was a celebration. Here, it just feels like, well, ok now that is over, where are my tax forms?

But no more being down on Ottawa! Ottawa is too easy a target and surely there are better things to do here than complain about the city.
