Well Sunday is going way better than Friday did. yay!

I went to the inaugural Mississauga Drum Circle today and it was very fun, the people were cool, and the weather was nice. We're going again next Sunday, and I might buy a drum!

Our afternoon in Erindale Park reminded me of an SCA gathering: barbecue smells, tons of families, outdoorsy smells, and homemade music. :D

Now I am listening to my happy Quebec folky pop. I bougth Metric and like it, but it's more moody and I needed a BNL-style charge this afternoon.

Oh! I sent off my 20 CDs to various community radio stations, so if you're in eastern Canada or Quebec, listen for me! ha ha ha. Well we shall see what kind of website traffic I get, or emails. *fingers crossed*

I watch TV the odd time, but not often. I flicked it on, and there was a show on french CBC that I liked watching before, Tout le monde en parle. I don't know quite what the premise of the show is; they do political and entertainment interviews, and curiously there seems to be a celebrity panel of some kind. The host looks a bit like Quentin Tarantino, and has a weird voice, so what with that and the celebrity panel, I am fascinated by the show.

The woman they interviewed was someone who looked like Michaelle Jean. It wasn't her. But it was interesting, she was a former child soldier. She was speaking in subtitled English, apparently answering the host's french questions. I don't know if a) she understood French but did not speak it confidently, or if b) they asked in English and edited the show big-time afterwards. In any case, due to the English, I understood it. Now they're back to all French; I'll give it a shot but I'm not sure what I'll get out of it, but if they have cool new Francophone bands that will be ever so cool.
