Sina: What do you think about her?
Cuqs: She’s a little ugly.
Sina: She’s not ugly.
Cuqs: It’s not that she’s ugly, it’s that she sorta looks like a frog.
Sina: Yeah, she is frog-like.
Cuqs: And as a person, you really don’t want to look like a frog.
An amendment to Rule 6.
Rule 6: Never destroy/delete any photos anything.
Viki: It’s good that you and Peter are still friends though.
Rita: What do you mean….?
Viki: It’s just that it’s good that you guys are still able to be friends.
Rita: I’m not sure what you mean, we’re……we’re still together.
Viki: *confused* Oh really?
Rita: Yeah
Viki: Really?
Rita: Yeah…
Viki: Like, “together” together?
Rita: Uhhh….yeah, we’re together.
Viki: But I thought you broke up in, like….. February.
Rita: No…. Well…it’s complicated.
Sina: Oh okay, that’s cool — Viki, let’s go. *wink wink*
Viki: Wait wait — so you’re, like, together. I mean, are you sure? Because Peter told us you broke up in February.
Sina: Viki…. *nudges Viki* I think we should go now.
Rita: Yeah, we’re together. I don’t get it. I mean, did he tell you we’re not? It’s complicated….
Sina: No no no, he didn’t say anything at all. Viki is just making dumb assumptions. *turns to Viki* Viki, let’s go.
*Viki and Sina leave*
LATER…
Sina: That was very interesting.
Viki: Is she telling the truth or did Peter lie to us?
Sina: Personally, I think she’s crazy. Secondly, you just gave Peter a very bad headache to deal with. tsk tsk
After threatening to take her post down over embarrassment, I’ve decided to restate Vivian’s perfect summer night here just in case:
IT WAS ONE OF THOSE PERFECT SUMMER NIGHTS
It starts with a girl and a boy. The night is silent, as the city sleeps. A gentle breeze whistles through the thick summer heat, creating the weather of perfection.
An elementary school. A playground. There are no children, there is no one in sight. Nostalgia all around. The girl and boy frolic through the deserted funhouse, reminiscing on how its like to go on a swing, or to go down a slide. They remember how its like to be a kid again.
There is at tree up ahead. Boy spots it and runs quickly towards it, leaving Girl behind on the swings with no one to push her. Girl turns around to find Boy up high on a branch. “Hey!” she cries, “I want to get up there too!” Girl tries to climb but fails as she realizes that she had no such thing as upper body strength. As though on command, Boy leaps down from the tree and hoists Girl right up until she is safe on a branch. Boy joins. Side by side they sit, looking up at the dark, clear sky. They see a few stars, and perhaps even a planet.
He doesn’t know it, but was her perfect summer night.
I don’t think it’s that embarrassing.
I just had a crazy awesome idea: go around posting Calvin and Hobbes comics in bus stops across the city! I really think I’m gonna do it one night. :D It’ll be my own form of art. I call it Calvinian Flowers in Mass Transit.
To my on-and-off friend Sonia (“off” at the time of this writing), you might like this (sound is required):
My memory card was actually full when I went to record this, but I really thought she’d like it so I deleted some other videos in order to record it. Unfortunately I didn’t delete enough, thus the abrupt stop.
Dear Jessica,
I just came back from seeing John Legend at Casino Rama tonight, and I’m pretty sure I was right: John Legend’s voice is much more heart-melting than Michael Buble’s.
I’m sorry but if the man can melt my heart, he can definitely melt any woman’s. Like I said, I’m sure Michael Buble gets enough ass — but seriously, can he compete with this? Exactly.
It’s okay, I still love you and we can still be friends of course.
I miss you,
Sina
I’m seeing John Legend at Casino Rama with George tomorrow (jealous?). Thus I’ve spent many hours the past few weeks listenting to his songs and watching his videos on YouTube.
I couldn’t decide which of these two to embed, so I’ve included both…
Did you know that Toronto is the webcomic capital of the world?
Via Sanjay:
But it makes sense, not because of Sanjay, but because I live here and I read a lot of webcomics.
Sometimes people who don’t know you will hate you, even though people who do know you love you. Don’t worry about it, just be happy that it’s not the other way around.
