Travel-blog: Toronto, Canada: Day Two & Three In One Big Blurb…
At the Friday Xanga-ites party, a delightful surprise. A last minute phone call from Steve and being able to convince him to come crash the party since it was in his neighborhood. Delight oh my soul it was a good time and much mischief was had by all. I have a photo of his erotic poem which I’ll post up as soon as I get back in california.
Saturday
Dimsum delights with GTA bloggers, Rannie, Jeremy, and Natalie along with my lovely host BananaEggy and myself next to a bowling alley. Yes…I said dimsum, bloggers, and bowling alley in the same sentence. Oh Canada.
Afterwards we jaunted to Pacific Mall and found a parking spot within an amazingly short period of time. I attribute it to us visualizing a spot to the point of actualization. Or it could be Natalie’s prayer…”Hail Mary full of Grace, find us a parking space.” Either way.
We spent the afternoon scouring the mall for photo ops, drinking boba tea, and I completely riced out my phone with a Hello Kitty face plate and Pucca glowing phone strap. It had to be done. I swear.
That evening my host & I caught a film screening called 7 films about Love. Twas mostly marvelous. The last film was 30 minutes and in my opinion, it was about 29 and a half minutes too long. The highlight for me was a short film with Sandra Oh in it titled Barrier Device. Bloody brilliant.
Following this jaunt, some cheap eats at Pho Pasteur and then out to Rivoli where I was able to meet up with my former Crush of the Weeek!. My COW (who later became upgraded to COM, yes… a month long + crush) came out to meet me at this cute little bar and then we jaunted off for insane Karaoke in Koreatown (so small we blinked & missed it and had to u-turn back) until 4 Am. Oy veh, 4 AM.

Laughter with friends Austin, Ann, Gardenia & my host BananaEggy. Twas a delightful first meeting with Ann & Gardenia. Ann was the lovely runner up in SB1 and it delighted my soul to no end to be able to meet her.
Steak, Cake. Gooseberries and getting the waiter to kiss me on the cheek.
And then
