Robot (Kat) Report
Amazing weekend! Of the greatest awesomeness was the CJSW Reunion. I got to meet so many great people, hear stories, drink and be very merry. It was a ton of fun. I want to send out ALL of the pictures in this email but something tells me it would bog down your mailbox a lot so just go here to see more. I'll be adding more pictures throughout the week too.
So all that awesomeness and on top of that I got to enjoy a performance called WORLD'S FAIR at Theatre Junction, I got to have fondue with my family and watch one of my favourite childhood movies, The Last Unicorn. It's still good. I also ate too much pound cake, but whatever.
I hardly know what's in store for me this coming week. Shatner's "The Captains" movie is showing in town, as is "North by Northwest" plus there are two CD release parties (No River and Miesha) that I care to check out. I think things are going to be amazing.
