I just sent out the Evite for Toronto&#8217;s Sante Wine Fest happening Sat, May 6th. Just holla if you wanted to be on the list, but weren&#8217;t included &#8212; I may not have your e-mail, or I might think you hate wine.<\/p>\n<p>2. Got my Canadian passport renewed yesterday, bought a long overdue ticket to visit <lj user=\"cranly_pants\"> in NYC, am flying out there evening of May 19 and coming back to TO morning of May 22.<\/p>\n<p>3. Am thinking of signing up for Ryerson&#8217;s &#8220;Macromedia Studio&#8221; course, 42 hours of learning about Dreamweaver and Flash for just $500, with an idea that maybe work will pay for it, and also if I become a student I should be able to purchase a copy of Studio at the $700 Educational price rather than the $9 gigillion dollar commercial price.<br \/>\nClass would be Tuesday nights from May to August.<\/p>\n<p>4. Preparing to work on an Alzheimer&#8217;s quilt made out of my dad&#8217;s shirts, screened photos, translucent fabric panels etc. for a travelling exhibition. It&#8217;s due for submission June 5th so I&#8217;d better get cracking on it. <\/p>\n<p>5. Bought sinensis.ca today with the idea of building a tea website. It will be my learning page for messing about with Flash.<\/p>\n<p>6. Watched &#8220;Hustle &#038; Flow&#8221; last night. Meh. I have a hard time feeling emotional attachment to a dude who lives by selling the bodies of women to get cash and microphones. I like Terence, but seriously, there was nothing sweet about his relationship with any of the three hos he was pimping in that film; it was all about abuse of power. Music was all right, but I could have lived without the violence and swearing. Am I becoming a &#8220;chick&#8221; in terms of movie viewing? Maybe.<\/p>\n<p>7. Feeling stunningly unmotivated today.
