A busy week

[sfllaw]

I've been wanting to tell you about the week I've had since I returned to Montréal. It's been ever so busy, I just haven't had any time to sit down and relax. Soon, I hope, soon.

Bah, furniture.

You have wifi and it's plugged into a DSL line. There's air conditioning.

Bring a pillow and sit on it. =)

But I have wifi plugged into a DSL right here. And there's air conditioning.

But the bonus is the furniture!

Don't forget that, due to the time that the Fringe-for-all is scheduled, pretty much only local companies get to participate, which means the poor touring companies have to fight extra hard for an audience!

It's true. There were some people who drove in from Boston who were specifically praised. They had their full two minutes of glory, I tell you.

I wasn't able to participate in the Fringe-for-All last year because I wasn't in the city yet! I lost money in Montrel :(

There are a lot of Fringes that make it a point of having the Fringe-for-All the first day, or the day JUST before the festival so that ALL companies have an equal opportunity to participate.

Yeah, that's terrible.

I think they do this so that reviewers get a chance to write about the Fringe before the acts all hit the streets. At least, that seems to be the case because of the row of reporters sitting up front, with their green folios stuffed with promotional materials.

We sat through about three hours of local acts, which means that if everyone got a chance to do their little gig, we'd be there all day!

Actually, that doesn't sound too bad for me. :P But others might object.

Whoa, a Canonical office in Montreal? When did this happen? What purpose will it serve? Will it result in a faster way to get Debian CDs for Montrealers than ShipIt? ;)
