Your doctor asks you “You’re sure you’re not on any drugs? Street drugs? You’re positive?” followed by glimpsing in your throat and within a second exclaiming “that is nasty!”

“If you have extra cash to spare or you want to have an aerial view of Mount Aso, you can take the helicopter ride, which is not far from the Mount Aso Museum. It cost ¥5000 per person for a 4 mins ride but the view is astounishing!” -some dude on wiki travel.

I’d correct it, but I really really like the word “astounishing” now.

It was my buddy Marshall’s birthday a few weeks ago and following my “use the spider-man cake pan we own regardless of if the pose fits the character” routine, we made him this Dr. Who cake.

A couple weeks ago, my friend Julie invited us out to check out where she works. It was rad. Julie is a projectionist at one of those fancy new multiplexes that went up in edmonton. We got to sneak our way up into the projection room and see how it’s all set up (Including the digital projector –Rawk!). Somehow I managed to leave the camera at home on the kitchen table that day. I’m still bummed about that little detail. But we got to watch a private screening, (just Steph, Julie and I) of one week (highly recommended by me to anyone who likes canadiana). So that helped negate the sadness quite a bit.

Anyway, point of this story is that Julie rocks and I snagged a chunk of film leader out of the trash bin and fashioned this fabulous bracelet for myself.

Hey kids, I’ve been down with the sick for the past forever. (I dunno, probably strep throat as usual.) And some of you might have noticed that my website was out of commission as well. Well, after some judicious cleaning, the blog, at least, seems to be less full of disease. Huzzah!
