(Outisde Kingston)
Tall grasses (or whatever, you know, city girl) performing adoration
Weeds at the side of the pavement buzz but can’t really see anything
It looked romantic for a little while but now the train’s been stopped for too long and I’ve lost interest; ugh VIA delays.
*****
It’s funny; my train left half an hour left and I was ready to think “ugh delays,” again, but actually my train arrived on time. Before I saw the grasses bowing, the first thing I thought of was The Happening… terrible movie. Less than an hour after arriving in Montreal, I met up with the roomies and practically-roomies and we headed up to the A-boys for a BBQ, followed by a few hours at Else’s*. It was good. The past couple summers, I adjusted very easily to my surroundings and more slowly to the company, but this year it was vice versa. I need to change my sheets and finish cleaning my room. But instead, I waxed my legs. Burgers at La Paryse** tonight, followed by chocolate***.
* Else’s – 156 est, Roy
**La Paryse – 302 est, Ontario
***Juliette et Chocolate – 1615 St-Denis OR 377 rue Laurier

I just jotted down the things I could remember when I woke up and it’s half a day later now, so…
I dreamt this morning just before my 6am alarm* that my favourite director, Alfonso Cuarón, was my dentist**. Dobrina Liubomirova, Nurse Sylvia in Sólo con tu pareja (or Love in the Time of Hysteria) was the dental hygenist. The otherwise ordinary dentist visit became a consultation for a cosmetic procedure to get rid of some skin discolouration I have on my abdomen and legs from some awkward burns. Eventually, we got to my teeth but apparently the chair in the other room was better suited for me, so we moved. But that room transformed into an incredibly luscious home library. Against one wall was a restaurant booth where the three of us, another friend of mine, a girl, Japanese tourists, and some more (comedic ensemble style, like in the car scene of Sólo con tu pareja) were squashed in together. My dentist, the film maker got up to go consult some books. I was having fun mostly, but at some point I got annoyed/bored and got up myself to wander and explore this incredibly luscious library. In the other room, I bump into teenage versions of Jonás Cuarón and Eireann Harper. I say something along the lines of ooer and we chat, and then I wake up. (more…)
