hah! it's 11:49pm, june 19th.
i went home last night, made sure that everything was ready for today (back home, s'been yesterday for a while now), showered and went to bed.
i woke up about 6am, had coffee while bouncing in the road (okay, i was a bit excited about the holiday), went back upstairs, got everything together, and then took the bus to azrieli to meet the kid.
we met around 8, had some great hot chocolate (he doesn't do coffee. huh.), i handed over my keys, and we said goodbye.
it was near enough to 9am that i needed to be on my way to the airport. the mall guard stopped me and gave me shit about not being in uniform - he pissed me off and stressed me out, which caused me to double-check my things.
that's when the gears in my master plan broke. i'd managed to forget one of the most important things next to my bed.
so i called up the kid, got him to take a taxi back to me, then we went past my place, i got the stuff i needed, went back to the train station, and parted company.
and i missed the train by a few seconds.
i asked the security guard when the next train would be, and he told me in an hour. instant panic - and no idea what to do. then i remembered that the schedule's published, and i double-checked, and discovered that the guard was wrong. so i relaxed a little, had a chat with a guy who used to be in the mongoose's section, and then took the train to the airport.
i didn't sleep very much. king kong was fun, everything else just slid by.
the airport experience in toronto was smooth, and pleasant. the flight to montreal was great! short, and WAY more comfortable. go figure :P
i'm staying at my aunt's, and this place is fantastic. we've all just spent a couple of hours talking, and now it's most definitely bedtime.
jetlag? i ALWAYS have jetlag, so i'm not phased ;)
moonflake: yes, the giant insects were fun. oddly enough, i especially loved the theatrical scene that drove the monkey mad - i think they played that out rather well
