one step at a

i'm bombed, and about to shower and crash. it's been a long day, after a long night, and although i finished my cv (it's been educational) and attempted to contact a couple of people i was pretty much useless after lunch.

but the mexican dude sent me a message: he may not have connections to offer, but he does have some advice. and that advice is to focus my search on alberta...

... and to stay out of quebec. interesting.

after a short nap that turned long, i sat down to make some calls and the neighbourhood's power went out. i don't want to call anyone without being ready to capture email addresses or websites or whatever, so i took it as a sign for us to go downtown.

some failed shoe shopping and a movie.

a 3d movie, in imax. the new resident evil is 96 minutes of hardcore eye candy and breath-catching shocks. was there a story? don't care. it was fun, and seemed tailor-made for the screen we watched it on.

trying to pick up a bit of french by watching french tv may or may not be a good idea, but it's not much of a pick-up :P
