Long Time, No Blog

It's me again. Surprised? I've been super-busy, doing... well, I don't even know what. School, going to a rock show (it was HARDCORE, man!), looking for an apartment, getting ready for exams, it's all taking up time. Also, I'm extremely lazy and every time I look at this blog, I have to look at the broken, broken format and it makes me sad that I don't technically know how to fix it, nor do I really want to learn how. I'll get into the template and fiddle around with stuff, maybe that'll help.

Anyway, life continues as usual. The trip to Toronto for Easter was awesome, and I met basically the entire population of the city. There is some mad civic pride going on down there! You can tell that people are really proud to live where they do, it's not that they deliberately centre their lives on their city. It's just that it's the only city in Canada that is big enough that you could live there and never have to leave, yet never get really bored. Anyway, it's a good time. I recommend it for a visit.

Since Easter, life has been fairly quiet. I took Jacob to church with me on Saturday, thereby freaking out Fr. Andre. Apparently we are not used to outsiders at St. Margaret Mary's, because when Jacob asked for a blessing instead of the bread and wine, the good padre looked a little shell-shocked. Ironically, we went on the day that the Pope passed away. I can't be too sad that he's gone, because he was having such health trouble that I don't know how much he'd been enjoying life. No matter how bravely or cheerfully he suffered, there's only so much a man should have to endure, and he's gone on to a better place.

I have to go finish my journaux de bord for French class. They're due in five hours and I still have one to finish writing up. All will be well!
