FREEDOM


HOLIDAYS!
(God knows I need it. I am stressed out, burnt out, flamed out, and just generally freaking cranky.....)
2 WHOLE WEEKS!
(I haven't had more than 1 week at a stretch for close to 5 years....)
SUMMER HAS ARRIVED IN TORONTO !
(But not yet, the smog....)
LIFE IS GOOD!
(Or at least I'm going to pretend for the next two weeks....)


So whatever will I do?
Play tennis (quads willing);
Read last 6 issues of Vanity Fair sitting on my coffee table;
Drink some really nice red wine;
Dinner party for 8 next Saturday;
Symposium at my Church next weekend;
Touring production of Rent next week;
Canadian Premiere of ALW's Song and Dance;
Guest lecture on Jung and such;
Go to the beach;
Walk;
Meditate;
Loll about on a sidewalk cafe pretending I'm in Paris;
Go to the Sandbanks (the lake) to visit my Sister and Brother-In-Law;
**CELEBRATE 6 MONTHS AS A NON-SMOKER**
What I will try not to do?
Eat too much;
Drink too much really nice red wine;
Complain;
Read my e-mail;
Go into the office;
Obsess about files blowing up;



These are some stock photos of Toronto. The one older, historical looking building (after Life is Good) is Osgoode Hall, home of our Court of Appeal. This building is kitty corner from my office which is featured in the picture of the statue (you can just the see the corner of my building in the right hand side of the picture). Toronto's new Opera Hall is directly across the street from where I work in the other direction but I couldn't find a picture. The rest, are a couple of Toronto's many landmarks and the Toronto Islands where we go to the beach. The night view is from atop the CN Tower looking out over Lake Ontario... the Island is just to the left of the photo.

Wow, Toronto looks like an amzing city. When it isn't winter of course. Have a great vacation. I hope that vacation from work doesn't mean vacation from blogging. I need my daily dose of Scott. Have a great vacation, you deserve it.

Love the pics!
I agree, great pictures of Toronto. Enjoy the time off and try to relax a bit.
I say you go to the clothing optional beach with your 6 copies of Vanity Fair and red wine.
Have a great vacation! Toronto is a lovely city. I am sure you will have a blast enjoying it as a vactation spot rather than a work spot the next few weeks!
Nice photos. I've been there once and did not get to explore as much as I wanted.....
I am a bit envious of your 2-week vacation....ENJOY!
Delicious!!! Ah, the "summer" holiday...I am soooo jealous! I have never been to Toronto, and it looks like an amazing city. Enjoy yourself, and congratulations on a half a year of not smoking! Awesome!
Beautiful pics!! Have a fantastic break!!
enjoy the break ... sounds perfect
Congrats on passing the 6-month hurdle. Keep up the good work.
