Shannon leaves tomorrow for Belgium again. It was tremendously nice seeing her again, though I'll see her in a couple of weeks.
Notes from the night:
- music night was pretty fantastic. It's a shame I have been sick and haven't had the time to practice anything for it... I really wanted to do ... well, I'll save it for next year.
- the bartender either didn't know what scotch was or really had the hots for me. I asked her for a double and she pours me a full glass, then charges me $9.50 for it.
- drums are fun.
- girls that dance with their whole body, rather than just hopping around and/or moving their arms... are incredibly rare and awesome. Yes? Yes.
- poutine is delicious.
- Firefox's spell-checker does not recognize poutine as a word. I had to add it. What a shame.
- history will not remember you if you are a hero. Villains are different... they are remembered forever because human beings are more amicable to not romanticizing villainy and/or acts of maliciousness. Heroism eventually turns to myth as the stories get older, as people are less inclined to believe in overwhelming good. Villainy, however, is preserved in history.
