Back

I'm back in Canada. I had an amazing trip, but am very glad to be home, despite the teetering piles of laundry, mail and (metaphorically) email (I'm going to write to you really really soon!) I am 31 years old. I was a finalist for the Danuta Gleed Award (sincere congratulations to Pasha Malla, the winner). I missed you guys, along with my bed, my plants, the TTC, plentiful streetside garbage cans, and an abundance of cheap fruits and vegetables. Of course, now that I have those things, I miss a comprehensive subway system, the mysterious 4:30 strong winds, the best convenience store lunches I've ever seen, temples in parking lots and (very much, already) my brother.

But you can't have it all. And I'm doing pretty well--nothing like being thrilled to come home from a wonderful vacation to make a girl realize that.

Why would you lie about something dumb like that?
