Phyllis: "It's hard to explain to people who haven't reproduced"--The Mary Tyler Moore Show
Dreamed of a group of romantics travelling through England in the late 18th century and being given pyrotechnic rockets by their admirers.
Dinner was butter chicken.
Dreamed of living in Fredericton with a group of graduate students; spotting actor Danny Aiello when he was young, in a 1970s TV show about beach bums.
Dinner was pizza.
I missed the first Toronto City Opera rehearsal last night (they started earlier this year), but I was sick anyway. I can't register online because all the places are (just officially) taken.
"Wonderful news, Homer!"
"Does it involve pies?"
--The Simpsons
Lou Grant (watching TV): "Is there anything real on? Like a western?"
--The Mary Tyler Moore Show
Dreamed of driving toward a hellish-looking Chinese industrial area at night; a real-life version of the Acme freezer on Wile E. Coyote's back which ground ice cubes and sprayed them forth as snow for him to ski on.
Went to St. Mike's for another appointment with Dr. Scholzberg the haematologist. There was lots of waiting and I had a book, but my cold has me so worn out that I didn't feel like reading!
Went to Tilley's and got a new spring-autumn hat.
Dinner was pork roast.
"I don't want to marry her, she's my friend!"--The Lion King
Dreamed of waking up in our old home in Sackville, N.B., and realizing I was an intruder.
I've started playing the online Zynga game Adventure World. It's pretty easy so far.
Dinner was McDonald's.
Saw Disney's The Lion King (for the first time) at the Yonge & Dundas, in 3-D. It's pretty good, an efficient story handsomely drawn and well voiced.
Finally activated my new Visa card. (It was misplaced earlier, but we managed to find it.)
Father has a cold and now Moira and I have caught it! (Like in Contagion, which I saw yesterday.) I was going to attend a Games Meetup but wasn't up to it.
Dinner was KFC.
Saw the DVD of Tom and Viv. T.S. Eliot (a miscast Willem Dafoe) came across as a cold fish.
Went to another Heritage Walk, around the University of Toronto campus with an emphasis on astronomy. (At the start we were near a noisy football game in Varsity Stadium.)
Dinner was linguini primavera.
Went to a Karaoke Meetup at Twister. I got brave enough to sing Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin' On"!
"I can handle other people; it's me I'm worried about"--Murder One
Dreamed of trying to bicycle home from Cape Breton.
Baked raisin bread.
Got some literature at the NDP campaign office and distributed it in my poll division.
Dinner was butter chicken (using sauce we found in the supermarket).
Saw Steven Soderbergh's Contagion at the Yonge & Dundas. (A couple next to me talked too much.) Fairly predictable middlebrow fare, though with intelligent touches. Jude Law is cool.
