Lately I am in the Cuisinart™ of life: lots on the go, lots to deal with, much of it good, much of it challenging, some of it teh suck. I'm not in a bad place very often...but it feels like I'm not in one place for very long either. *cue Dead or Alive*

Yesterday was a 6 hour seminar where research trainees give "what I done learnt" presentations, mostly in research teams. The best presentation was by the one trainee with no academic (i.e. university) background: he took the piss creatively and humorously out of academe's self-importance. One of my (former) students kicked it, and my former collaborators finally presented some data from the questionnaire I largely shepherded through development last year. But mostly I marked papers. I finished number 31 (of 34; 3 extensions) around 18h00 last night. Which I'll hand back this morning.

Tomorrow I'm off to parts East: Halifax for a conference through 'til Sunday morning, where I'm presenting a paper on HIV risk narratives and queer youth (how many times can you say unprotected anal intercourse in 5 minutes?). I love Halifax, but am not looking to the well-intentioned "so what are you doing now" queries. Former PhD golden boys are expected to be tenured 5 years after finishing their PhuD. That sort of requires a job in the professoriate though.

Then Sunday I pop over to Montréal for a quickie. I want some R-n-R. There will be mens. There will be poutine. There will be scavaging in the clearance bins at Archambeault. I may pop over to Le Stud and fondle my man boobs whilst putting on lipstick. Then an early flight back to Vancouver Monday morning.

And then week it's Nu Yawk, hanh? Gonna see my mutha an' fatha, hanh? Fa Nanny's 100th hanh!

I've moved to this new journal. You can delete MommyBabou. I gave other people the choice to add it or not but I added you because I cannot live without you! :p

Une Babouette by any other name...

The Stud has a 5-à-7 on Sunday that is quite popular avec les ours. It is also Grand Prix weekend, so things will be busier than normal, which means really busy since this is the start of Festival Season here. If you travel toward downtown, things will be very, very busy, with lots of rich folks and expensive cars. The race itself is Sunday at 1.

I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm out and about on Sunday.

Bon voyage!

Le sauna préferé des ours, particulérement dimanche après-midi (beaucoup des hommes mariés en route chez eux), est le 5018 (5018 St-Laurent coin St-Joseph). Dans le Village, GI Joe, oui. Mon conjoint et son chum préfére le Sauna Centre-Ville (1465 Ste-Catherine E, entre Plessis et Alexandre-de-Seve). C'est aussi un nouveau club de sex, le Backroom, 1450 Ste-Catherine E, coin Plessis, le ancien K.O.X.

Le sauna de Twinkies est le Sauna Oasis (ou, peut etre, le nouveau Sauna Ste-Cath). Le 5018 est dans le Plateau, pres de Metro Laurier (et 10 minute par pied).
