he cancelled

About an hour before we were suppose to meet. Problem solved. Except for the fact that he said the purpose of today was to discuss where we plan to go from here. Huh?? I thought we were done. He used the L word, and posted his half of an old picture of us, status: wishing to complete this picture. Oh God. Why do these boys never understand what they have 'til I'm SO DONE with it?


My "I thought this was over" relationship is getting in the way of my "it's complicated" relationship.

Let's go to the Ex!

Sorry, that's from the commercial for the CNE, aka The Exhibition, but I'm talking about something entirely different here.

What is the rule on seeing the Ex? There must at least be guidelines, or recommended courses of action, right? If they really want to 'see you', and 'keep in touch', etc, what do you do? Do the same rules as for first dates apply? Well-lit places with a clear exit strategy, planted phone calls in case you need to escape, plus no touching under any circumstances? Help!

Science Centre

Even though I was just there in May, I can never resist the geek in me to spend a day at the OSC. The Titanic Exhibit did not disappoint. At the entrance everyone is getting a White Star Line boarding pass, with a mini-bio of one of the passengers. Then you go through various rooms with artifacts and quotes, my favourite being Guggenheim's "We were dressed and prepared to go down like gentlemen". The eerie blue lights casted a glow of despair and doom at the part about the collision with the iceberg. There is an actual 'iceberg' there that you can touch. And at the end is a wall with all the names of the survivors and the lost, and you try to find out if the person on your ticket survived. Very well done. I may have to watch Leo & Kate's version soon again too.


Stardust
You have to go see this movie! And I guess it is a book too, so I'll be reading that.
