Disappearing

Posted by Dionne on Jul 27th, 2009

My friend told me that if I was planning on disappearing for a month, I should have given some warning. For that I’m sorry!

Blog posts take some time for me. It usually requires a day of daydreaming, followed by a string of drafts and deletes. And for those of you who know me well, I’ve immersed myself in a pretty packed summer schedule that has cut my daydream time tremendously.

Small updates while I’m here. My busy schedule this summer has really forced me to pack myself into short spans of free time. Which naturally means I’ve tried to be as much of a misfit as possible. Some new memories made:

- accidentally attended a hippie convention
- jumped off a bridge (and bounced back)
- made it onto 4 roofs in one night (watched a peaceful moon-set on one and got attacked by seagulls on another)
- been filmed in a ..film? and been mistaken for an auto commercial girl
- made banana kitkat pancakes
- explored down a (non-sewage) manhole only to have someone seal me in
- hijacked a canoe at midnight and rowed under the Granville bridge

Don’t wait till you’re 50 to start on your bucket list. It’s way more fun this way :)
