Here I am hacking on a manual for WvStreams, as I travel by train
to Toronto. That's actually a layover for my trip to Waterloo. We're
heading down there to
hire
another round of co-op students, this time for Winter 2005. Along
the way, we'll feed and water them (for a much deserved mid-term
break.)
However, I'm not really heading down this early because I like
Waterloo a lot. I'm actually going down to visit some friends. Of
course, I have to see Julie and she's graciously offered her couch and
living room to me. Then I can also see
ringzero and
Adeel. I hear Kevin Fong is making a
turducken for his
dinner party, and I will be very happy to attend. In fact, I'm
bringing some Montréal
bagels to some
ex-patriots who must endure Ontario bagels.
Oh yes. Before I hopped on the train, I showed Carlos around a
small subset of the city. We went into some used bookstores, and he was
able to procure some travel souvenirs. Unfortunately, my weakness for
used books revealed itself, and I couldn't help buying a couple along
the way. In my defense, they were purchased as gifts for others.
Anyway, I'll have to do a little NITI meet and greet on Monday, so
if you want to see me, and don't want to tie yourself down to an
actual schedule, you should show up at the University Club after 9pm.
In fact, if you show up before, you can also apply to get a hacking
job, or mooch off some free food.
