Quick Update from Windsor September 30, 2009

Posted by Sina in : Daily , add a comment

I’m in Windsor (Ontario) for the Ontario Tourism Summit, staying at the Caesars Windsor. Here are a few quick updates and observations:

- I rode Via 1 here and it was pretty good.
- Tonight’s receptions at the Canadian Club Brand Centre was a cool venue.
- Casino’s are kinda depressing. Seriously.
- I won $37 on roulette tonight.
- VIP parties with people kissing your ass are conflicting. But I can see why they’re effective.
- We take it for granted, but the ease of communication in our modern world is amazing.
- Toronto is much bigger than people realize.

Good night.

Today is the last day of summer, and even though I don’t consider summer “over” until October, I can go ahead and say that the summer of 2009 has been the best summer of my post-childhood.

I fully expect summer 2010 to be even better, 2011 better than that, and so forth.

A typical conversation with my dad September 10, 2009

Dad: So do you go to work?

Sina: What do you mean? Yeah…

Dad: You go to work with that beard?

Sina: *shrugs* Yeah—  [pause] …They don’t pay me to shave.

Dad: *sarcastic chuckle* They pay you more than that.

Sina: I dunno. I’m not really worried about it. Shaving doesn’t make me work more or anything.

Dad: Well…….

Sina: Meh *shrugs*

Not a nice feeling
When you are used for something
And then set aside.
