Today Aunt Kathie, Uncle Peter and Bryan are coming for dinner that Aunt Kristine is making. Papa invited someone over for brunch tomorrow - someone from Halifax who I never met.
I went out with my friend Jason the other night. He's Declan's godfather who lives in Hong Kong. He has been visiting his family the last couple weeks. He was telling me since being in Ottawa he has seen Bjork, Mastadon, The Black Keys, Rush, and Weezer. He apparently went alone to each one not knowing I was in town at the same time and I could have gone with him. I'm not sure I would have gone to all those and would have picked just one - but I am not sure which one! Truth is they were all outdoor concerts and I don't enjoy them as much as indoor shows - plus I am not liking crowds lately. Still, seeing Mastadon would have been special (or any of the others).
Did I mention that Aunt Kristine and Aunt Kathie went to see the Tragically Hip a couple weeks ago too? Big concerts happen all the time in Ottawa - especially in the summer when there are plenty of festivals. Taylor Swift was here just before I arrived - Reilly and Emily are going to see her in Chicago in August.
I am looking forward to seeing the Gatineau Balloon festival this September - a festival that can be enjoyed from home!
as the crow flies
