Well, today is Sunday and you know what that means. Time for the St. Lawrence Antiques Market Sundays. This time out, though, I didn't pick up anything. I was sort of eyeing a New Order collection, but the cost was a whopping $30. I figured my money is best spent next week in Ottawa, where I plan to pick up a few slabs of vinyl from The Turning Point on Cooper Street. I want to get some Chicago stuff and Todd Rundgren that they have there. So I keep my money in my wallet today and conserved.
Not much else is new today. Just watched the Jays beat the Chicago White Sox for their third straight win. Hoping that they do as well tomorrow. Basically, I'm just waiting for Thursday to arrive, when I can go to Ottawa and see some of my old friends and hit up some of my old contacts. I've been thinking about a return to freelance journalism and I'm rather excited by the prospect. I know a lot more media in Ottawa than I do in Toronto, so it just seems to be a non-started that I might move back there and eek out a career for myself. I was even looking at some of my old clippings today and was fondly remembering some of those stories. I have to wonder if I was a better writer then than I am now. After all, being out of the game all of these years might have made me a bit rusty. I used to be good at puns and turns of phrase. If you've been reading this blog, you'll know that my writing has become more workman-like. Just the straight facts, and no hefty turns of phrase or matrix-style leads. Still, maybe I'll warm up if I get back to it. We'll have to see.
Can things hurry up and go till Thursday? Argh! I can't wait.
