Mmmmm, hot yoga. Wow, I needed that! And what a small world! The woman teaching class that day is also from Toronto, and went to Sheridan, so of course, we know a handful of the same people! Funny how that happens in such a big city. Oh! By the way, if you’d...

Last night I had a dream that I left my hand baggage on the bus. In order to try to get it back, I had to describe my bag to the general public over the loudspeaker, but I couldn’t because it’s a new bag, and I couldn’t remember what it looked like....
