Another return...

Oh dear. It's been a year... over a year! And good heavens, that leaves THREE whole followers with nothing to muse upon!

Well, three followers (and my friend Lisa, who has been harassing me to get this going again), my apologies. Granted, one of those followers is my father... but, well... sorry Dad.

Sadly, the inciting incident for this return was not even an especially great conversation - rather, I went to comment on my friend Kendra's blog, and realized how terrible it would be if she in turn clicked on my blog and saw that NOTHING had been added in over a year. So, Kendra, should you find yourself here... know that three followers (my dad, my cousin's wife, and a former roommate) now have more information to absorb, thanks to you! Huzzah!

Well, in the interest of time (and the fact that I probably SHOULD be doing homework), I won't go into too much of a review here. BUT, in brief:

-I have talked to no more rockstars. Although I have gotten to know the boyfriend of a friend whose rather up and coming, at least in the Ottawa scene. Giant Hand - check him out. But that doesn't count anyway.

-I talked to several strangers at weddings. The friend weddings have begun - I must be old. But I'm not going to tell those stories, anyway.

-Public transportation continues to be an excellent source of strangers. One of those stories to follow directly:

Stranger: French Literature Reciting Seat-mate

I think I might have said one other time (or maybe not) that I often don't try to start conversations with people I sit with on the Greyhound. It can just get awkward. But I didn't have to start this one!

Did not initiate: 0 points

Longer than half-an-hour: 20 points

Stranger on bus: 15 points

Comfort zone: 2 points

TOTAL: 37 points. Huzzah!

What I learned: The premise of Dollhouse was like the premise of a French novel. Also - if there is a zombie apocalypse, choose weaponry that allows for maintaing distance. The chainsaw, while macho, just keeps you too close.

What is with boys and zombies?

PS - dear Kendra once went out of her way to speak to me as a stranger. She has a fantastic food blog, here: http://kendraskitchenmusings.blogspot.com/
