Montreal

The first thing I do when I arrive in a hotel room is take off my pants. It's my home, temporarily thank goodness, but still...

Keepsakes.

Jean-talon market it the BEST market.

Suicide note.

J ATE THIS! I had Matzo ball soup.

Americans are weird!!

I want to move to Montreal. I don't care if it will feel like a small town compared to Toronto or even that I don't speak french. I really love Montreal and next summer I'm going to move there.

J's band is playing at the Velvet Underground tonight. I would normally be a perfect girlfriend and attend despite being worn out from work, having a headache and also facing an ever expanding inability to imagine being around other humans. All of the above make leaving the house for a Dan Burke rock show very difficult but in this case I'm just trying to save some dough.

We are heading to Pop Montreal this weekend where Ancestors will play a Saturday night with the likes of Anagram and Catl. I am prepared for mondo party-times which will certainly include couch-sleeping and cell destruction. The kind of fun I have not engaged in since 2007--whoa.

While you wait for those juicy photos let me share with you some of the great weekend finds from St. Lawrence Market.

Pyrex butter dish.

Vintage fabric.

Hornsea elephant mug.
