I'm in Canada! Hooray! A group of us came up for a workshop at the Fields Institute in Toronto. I'm currently partaking of the public access terminals at the UofT library (without displaying a current UofT library card).
We stopped at Niagra falls, and admired its stunning natural beauty... and restrained ourselves from spitting over the falls, though some of us threw some coins.
We tried to make trouble at the border, demanding that they take away our I-94 forms (which say that we are required by law to surrender them every time we leave the US), but despite our best efforts, they just took our $2.50 (to cross the bridge, or as I think of it, the "Get the hell out of the US tax") and sent us on our way.
We went to Tim Horton's. It was awesome. I almost kissed the floor, but settled for buying 20 Timbits.
Damn it feels good.
Now I must go and attempt to resolve my banking situation (we came up a day early to do such things as bank, have cars inspected, replace health cards, and, of course, go up the CN tower).
Watch for me on Electric Circus.

n-i-a-g-a-r-a
from you of all people, timE, i am saddened to the core.
ooh. gotta go to TH’s. just cause i can.
I’m afraid I wasn’t able to maintain my usual standards of spelling/punctuation. My only defense is that I was rushed by the constant threat of expulsion from the library for fraudulently impersonating a Toronto student. You may notice that I also left out the comma after “Damn.”
