Oh, I am So Bad. The photo above was taken this morning when Parki, Jeff and I had brunch at 3's Company, currently one of our favourite brunch places in Toronto. The photo? It's what I had for breakfast: French toast stuffed with peanut butter and banana, drizzled with chocolate, whipped cream. My waitperson also gave me some maple syrup on the side, "in case it's not sweet enough." She didn't quite manage to say it with a straight face. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... Gushing thanks to my friend Parki, who told me that the Return of the King Extended Edition Preview is available online. Dear lord, I CAN'T WAIT CAN'T WAIT CAN'T WAIT. Obviously, I need to do a cartoon about this. I'm about a third of the way through Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. I'd be able to go a lot faster if the book wasn't so darned BIG; I can't read it in the tub and it's a pain to carry on the subway. Quite enjoying so far, though! I've also started The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud, first book of The Bartimaeus Trilogy (thanks for the loan, Parki!). Love it, must get my own copy. Also hope the second book comes out in paperback soon. Jeff and I just picked up William Shatner's new CD, "Has Been." Dear lord. We're still listening to it, so I can't quite decide if it's good or bad or simply unclassifiable (I suspect the latter). The list of artists who collaborated on this CD is mind-boggling, including: Ben Folds, Nick Hornby, Brad Paisley (wrote a song specifically for Shatner), Joe Jackson, Aimee Mann, Henry Rollins, Adrian Belew (guitars), Matt Chamberlain (played drums for Tori Amos, Fiona Apple), Sebastian Steinberg (bass, Soul Coughing), and Jon Auer (guitar, The Posies).
