Well. Well, well, well.... it's been a while so I have a fair amount to say. First, Vancouver was awesome although disappointing devoid of wacky adventures. The 17 hour bus ride there was hell. The 1.5 hour flight home was much better. I saw, for the first time, a guy shooting up. That was exciting. I was tempted to take photos but I figured if CrackMan was with it enough to realize what I was doing, he might not like it. Also, a note of caution... don't always trust websites. Just cuz the site says there's a wax museum at that address, it may be prudent to phone the number to ensure that you don't end up wandering through dodgy neighbourhoods looking for a wax museum that turns out to be a seedy-looking souveneir store. I wanted the wax museum, dammit!!! When the photos get developed, I will post them on my site.

8 Things I Learned About Secret Agents
1. A secret agent's hair is rarely neat and tidy.
Furthermore, I still want to be a secret agent. I've decided that my real dad is an agent. That's one advantage to being a bastard-child and not knowing your father. He can be anything you want him to be!
Lastly, I am finally giving in and admitting that I might sorta kinda have a teensy crush on Johnny* (*name changed to protect his identity!!! I don't actually know anyone named Johnny!!!). He's good-looking, he's nice and he's an incorrigable flirt. I don't know if he even realizes he's flirting! But's it's been a really long time since a nice, good-looking, non-creepy guy flirted with me, so I figure I'll take it where I can get it. I'm not gonna pursue it, of course, for 2 reasons. A) I know what kind of girls he likes, and I'm not it (luckily), and B) He's already a major player in a sick little soap opera. I refuse to become involved in it. My new plan is to keep my head down and my mouth shut.
Season One, disks 1 & 2 from the movie store. Of course when I got them home I found out that out lame-ass DVD drive only plays Asian DVDs. Great. Stepdad took it to be fixed though and I finally got to watch the first 7 eps! While I was watching, I compiled a list, so here it is...
2. Secret agents can drive practical, dependable vehicles.
3. Big boobs can really get in the way of spy-work.
4. Secret agents have hot partners.
5. Trust no one. They all work for the bad guys.
6. Acronyms are slowly but surely taking over the English language. If the CIA ruled the world, everything would be spelled L.I.K.E. T.H.I.S.
7. It's amazing what a wig and a make-over can do. It can make you feel (and look!) like a whole new woman.
8. Having a screwed up family is a prerequisite for being a secret agent.
