- Visitors! I got to spend some time with my dear pals Wes from Vancouver and Matt from Winnipeg. There were art galleries, afternoon drinks, wedding guesting, brunches, new socks, record shopping, and a Gilmore Girls marathon involved. So much fun.
- I went to my friend Katie's wedding with my faraway pals. It was lovely and much fun. Bring on the winter wedding season, I say. (I have one more.)
- I finally found The National's "Boxer" and the Weakerthans' "Reconstruction Site" on vinyl. At HMV of all places.
- Wes and I went to a Raptors' game on Monday and holy shit it was fun. Did you know the Raptors are doing exceptionally well, and are at the top of their division? Yes, a Toronto sports team is doing well. Can they please not be like the Jays and actually manage to keep it going until the playoffs? PLEASE. I beg of you Drake, keep this going. (Drake is the Raptors' celebrity ambassador and that's why I am beseeching him to keep the Raptors winning. Also, I kind of like Drake.)
Oh, they won too. Raps 104, Suns 100. Pretty close and really exciting. I suspect this won't be my only basketball game this season. - Speaking of sports, my baseball buddies (Mathew & Vic) and I have our 15-game passes ironed out for next season, and I'm going to complete the bobblehead trifecta again, I promise you all. Great players this year are going to be passed out for free in bobblehead form: Bautista, Stroman and the new guy Martin. Also isn't it funny how obsessions come out of nowhere and take a hold of me? Two years ago I didn't really care about baseball, and now I'm a freak.
- Speaking of obsessions, Matt from Winnipeg got me hooked on what has become the most popular podcast ever: Serial (serialpodcast.org). Go listen now and report back to me. I would love to have an hour long conversation with someone about this podcast.
- I also love the new Taylor Swift album. Yes, I know.

Tiptoe through our shiny city with our diamond slippers on.
Wow, what a fun weekend and so much random stuff to write about. I think I'll just make a point form list.

Serial. Oh my God we are h-o-o-k-e-d. I didn't think we would get into it from the description but after the first episode, how do you stop listening?! We groaned when she announced there wouldn't be a podcast this week!
I'm nervous about not having cable next summer when you're blogging about Jays games!
The food at that wedding looked really good.
Players gonna play, play,play,play,play...
I love 1989 too. And this post.
