...Amazing....

(The JPG above is for my buddy, Ellielou. It has been used. Toronto is the home of of Hemoroid Cream avec Bio-Dyne.)
I was one of the many that attended the Infamous / Famous VT Meet in Toronto.

It's infamous if you were one of the Partay Peeps... It's Famous if you were on of us non-partay'in peeps.

Quite uncharacteristic of me, I didn't hang out and drink and stuff. I'm 'in training' -- which is pretty funny, cuz I don't look like no athlete! But I'm conscious of how at my age, I don't bounce back as quick after late nights.

You will have to trust that I can hang. I .... just chose NOT to. Kinda glad. I had more energy and enjoyed not being too hungover. I got to have some quality time with a few of the VT folks there and I feel quite honored and blessed to say I have made some great friends as a result.

...Fantastic...

(Yeah, Tylenol. Avec Codeine. No 'script needed. This Town ROCKS!)
Now, you might be asking, Where are your Toronto pages? Where are your Toronto Tips? What is Up with that?!?

True, I really don't have Toronto Pages to speak of. I was reminded by one VT member who shall remain nameless, "You didn't do anything - how could you have pages"... to paraphrase.

WELL THAT IS NOT TRUE> I went to the Drug Store. With my nearest and dearest Long Lost VT TWIN: Ellielou.

So if you want an Off the Beaten Track type of trip. GO to the drugstores. You can find stuff!

...Surreal to Sublime....

(And this is Pleasures... because I was given more Pleasures than I expected.... And I get the feeling there are grand Pleasures to come...)
In short, to all of those I met in Toronto, Thank you. I am richer for having met you all. Lotta love there. Lots of heart and lots of love. I totally dug that.

Speaking of digging things, I really like my new perfume purchased w/ my few remaining Loonies. Goonies... Boonies. Whatever they call that play currency in Canada. (Take THAT Rmdw!!!)

I thank the kind gentleman at the airport that approved my new frangrance!

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Go to the Drug Store in Toronto. It was a HIGHLIGHT!
  • Cons:They won't give you all your heart's desire (in the drug store) but you'll get what you need!
  • In a nutshell:I have enriched my life with a few new friends I shall always treasure!

    I still miss everyone, too. It's so funny. I'd go back in 2 seconds. Hell, I'd even DRIVE if I had to. I haven't had so much fun since I was in college. It was the best! I wish I'd known about the drug store though! : )
