Back from Italy, still having a tough time with the time zone switch.

Leave for Nicaragua in about a week. We have a cottage rented there with our own pool. Should be nice to see some sunshine.

Food was extremely expensive in Europe, but you don't realize it until you do the conversion from the Canadian dollar to the euro.

So Canada almost lost to the Swiss. What is with the Swiss goalies against Canada?

Work has been almost unbearably slow since getting back. It's strange going from the go go go of traveling around Italy to the "what's the cheapest laptop?" type question that makes my mind melt.

The Jays are raising their ticket prices this year, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa??? Team gets worse and are in jeopardy of losing a lot of their fan base by trading their best player. Why can't Bryan Colangelo run this team as well.

Baseball is fast approaching, favorite time of year, the lazy Thursday afternoon of baseball while enjoying a caesar.

Whip It - 7.9/10

Local Natives is one of the better albums I have listened to lately, folky feel similar to Band of Horses, but still has a enough rock to make it enjoyable.

Want to see "Spoon" at Massey Hall, but not getting much interest from others. The problem with Massey Hall is that it's difficult to get a pint since it's not a bar, but the music sounds so good there with it's acoustics that it almost makes better that way.

I would love to open a restaurant that played light indie rock, that had healthy food, and cheaper bottles of wine. We need an in between restaurant of a Boston Pizza to upper scale.

With our restaurants we are turning more and more into the states with our brown type food. Description - brown type food is basically food that is the colour brown. Fish and Chips, Chicken Wings, French Fries. Cheap to manufacture, taste wonderful, make you feel awful. There are way too many places like this, but it's fast and easy.

Sara and I have made a conscious decision to not eat out unless it's absolutely necessary.
