did anyone catch the beginning of the leafs opener yesterday? right before the national anthem, the announcer said one of the corniest things i’ve ever heard in my entire life:

“the passion that unites us all…the passion that unites friends…the passion that unites strangers…the passion that unites families…” gimme a break…

some other things i did yesterday:

- cleaned up pongo’s diarrhea
- found and played from an old amy grant Christmas songbook
- watched "dodgeball"
- went to mitchell’s to look for dramatic musical material
- read chapter 13 of my textbook

today’s to-do list:

- view on-line lecture
- watch "the day after tomorrow"
- change the guinea pig’s shavings
- read chapter 4

i’m looking forward to thanksgiving! it’s my second favourite holiday after Christmas. there’s something about autumn that really gets me—the brilliant colours, the crisp air (just cool enough to wear a sweater), the family gatherings, the apple-picking, going to sherkston—i love it all!

I like how you spread out your pet's toilet cleaning business. I know how you feel...you gotta spread out the fun and funky odors.
Glad we had time together!
I'm ALL about corny...but that leafs announcer should be disciplined.

the only thing worse than that announcement would be the new NHL commerical. the samurai thing with the scantily-clad physician/trainer = tacky to the max.
