Bye bye faut que je m'en ailles

[jawnbc]

Bags are packed--stuffed really, thanks to the expertise of one toneyvr--and the iBook goes in next. Then a cuppa before departing for the airport. Where there will be much crying. As it should be at farewells with those you love .

It’s been a grand visit.

On the more positive side, I’ll be back in his nibs’ arms (aka querrelle very, very soon. And once I wave bye-bye to Tony, I’ll pop into “traveller” mode and be fine really. But I’ll miss him terribly, I always do.

But this time he’s really finding his own path in life. Starting grad skool is so the right thing for him. He’s learning and growing a lot. I’m so pleased for him!

Straddling the Pacific (metaphorically; be nice) is the new normal for me, and I don’t feel torn by it. I am Canadian, I love my family there. I love Max, and our life together in Australia. Really I’m a lucky, lucky boy.

I'm back in baby's arms;
How I missed those loving arms.
I'm back where I belong,
Back in baby's arms.

Back in baby's arms.
Back in baby's arms.
Back in baby's arms.

Now, c'mon, that's not very nice. As if his being a Merkun explains his being a fucktard. (I will accept that being led by a fucktard may have convinced the world it's widespread, but it's not universal.) You'd be all over me if I dished a "Canajun Idjit".

And it's "who's", not "whose". Nyah. Nyah-nyah-nyah.

Hope the trip goes well. Absinthe makes the heart grow longer, or something like that.

I think John was pointing out two separate things... the fucktardness being one thing, and the encroachment of U.S. control over Canadian corporations being a different problem.

2fruition clarified, but I was taking a pot shot at a sadly too-large subset of Americans who never consider that local custom or values might be different enough from the US. Milton, the CEO of Air Canada has demonstrated his unability to accept he works in Canada for a Canadian entity since he's been there.

And when people make cutting comments about Canuck that have some validity, I often agree. But we don't have an idiots in Canada; intelligence testing at birth is quite accurate and eugenics is part of the Canadian Constitution.

But we don't have any idiots in Canada

Oh, I know, I know. I was just being cranky.

Just got back from "The Day After Tomorrow". Strangely, as most of the US is panicking about the super-cold super-storm and running for the Mexican border... no mention is made of Canada. Apparently the cold wasn't a problem for Canada.
