Random Traffic Through Nick's Brain

• Spent Friday evening in downtown Montreal. Had a cappucino at a café on Crescent. Had a Superstar®, no green peppers at Mikes. Between ordering and receiving my meal, I took a quick run to the Jean Coutu to get some eye-drops.
  • It was fun running along Ste-Catherine St., darting in and out of pedestrian and automotive traffic. Brings back memories… well… not really specific memories… just more a good feeling of having done and enjoyed doing just that many times before.
  • Part of what made it fun is that I’m back in decent shape. Running itself is fun instead of difficult.
  After that, off to the Comedyworks, my favourite comedy club. I went often enough before I moved to London, and between London and Boston, that the wait staff and comedians from On The Spot still recognized me after all these years. When the show ended, I still felt energized and wanted to stay out. Not a normal occurence for me at 23:00 these days. Especially not after a 6 hour drive. I guess I miss Montreal.
• Billboard near the Centre Bell, where the Montreal Canadiens play: stripper, in bra and panties, sitting on the side of her stage, looking dejectedly at her watch. Room is empty. Caption (loosely translated): It’s all about hockey.
• Went square dancing on a Tuesday for the first time in months yesterday.
• The muscle in my left butt is killing me. This getting in shape stuff is fine and dandy, but the little aches and pains that come along with it are annoying.
