I know! I'm a bad blogger!

Hi everyone.

sorry I've been so MIA with the blogging (thanx for the needed nagging, sylas). But y'all, i am having the BEST time. Let's see, I've been in Toronto since Halloween, with a small break to do a performance and workshop at the "Bodies of Dissent" conference in Peterborough last weekend, and I'm leaving tomorrow morning bright and early headed back to the states and down south to Atlanta and Nashville-ish by Thanksgiving. Also, I did a workshop on Racism and Disability for the Acsexxxible workshop series here in Toronto my first week in town. Thanks to the fabulous Loree, Colin, and others who made that possible. I think everything went well..

what else? OH! how could i forget the amazing Acsexxxable fundraiser this past Thursday? I participated as a roving, payable kisser. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the movement, you know. It was really pretty amazing. I've never been in a space like it before, and hopefully it will not be too long before I am again. To donate or otherwise support their rad work, check out http://www.acsexxxable.ca/index.html

Also, Loree, Ayden and Chris have been the friendliest hosts one could ask for. Geez, people. thanks. I have met tons of friendlyheads while I have been here too. And discovered the best roti on earth, to which i am now shamelessly addicted. I had some tonight for my last dinner in town of course. Oh, vena's, i miss you already and I haven't even left yet!

Got lots of new books, and Toronto Women's Bookstore (love.it.) now has plenty of Scars Tell Stories in stock, fyi.

So all is very well in Colin-land. I'm sad to leave Toronto. I really like it here. (well, except for the snow and the parking). But excited to be going onward as well.

I will try to be a better blogger from now on.

hope everyone's well!

Colin! SOOO glad you're having such a grand time. I'm envious, but in that so-happy-to-see-you-well sort of way. Your plants and I miss you. I give them infrequent updates about your fantastic escapades. They seem to like these, as they're growing rapidly.

Heart!
