Everybody Loves a Winner

Yo-ho, merry sailors of the high information seas. In my first federal election voting experience, I backed a winner. Well, the winner in my riding, anyway. Federally, not so much. But it does seem like Canadians got what they wanted: a weakish non-Liberal government, which can be easily dragged out of office again at any time the populace gets too irritated. What a positive move, Canada! But really, it was pretty much what I wanted. The only thing I would have changed, had I the despotic power to create a democratically elected government, would be to have just a few more NDP MPs or Conservative MPs in office, so that the NDP would hold the balance of power.

Yesterday was sort of meh; today was good; tomorrow will probably be even better. The Vivaldi we are singing is fun to sing and should shape up a treat. This weekend ought to be a blast because I'm going out to the McGill Outdoors Club cabin again. This works out nicely, because Katherine's parents arrive Friday and I won't be in everyone's hair if she wants to do fun stuff with them instead of staying in Saturday night and moping about with me. They're here until Monday, though, so I'll see them Sunday at least. Seeing them is a Good Thing, because they are a blast. Anyway, I'm out. Time for a little more obsessing over my resume (co-op interview tomorrow, natch) and then bed!
