Grand news! I am moving to Victoria, BC, for a job! I'll be there for at least 44 weeks (well, unless I'm a total washout, but let's not think of that now - instead, let's great ready for the THUNDER of EMPLOYMENT and the THRILLS of LEARNING.) So, I am busy readying my supply of polar fleece and bulk food containers for the trip.
Sadly, this means I will soon be a 6-8 hour flight away from my family. I will miss them all terribly, although my kind, understanding father has one odd habit that has left me feeling I was living in a Quiz Bowl for the past two weeks. He asks questions. Lots of questions.
Most of which I do not know the answer to.
For your and my amusement, here's a list of five random questions he asked me today, to which my answer was either "I don't know" or "I'm not sure, but..."
1. A list of all the cookies offered at the cookie bakery I visited in New York, almost 18 months ago. 2. What the Russian people thought of Dostoevsky.
3. If there were any real Jewish restaurants left in Montreal, besides the delis.
4. Why k-os would write a song about Natalie Portman.
5. If there was any great writer or thinker no one had ever made a great documentary about... yet.

Yayyyy congratulations Marty! Of what I know of Victoria, there are lots of tea shops so have some great tea parties!
Thanks Danielle! I will have to post a pic of me doing tea here. As soon as I buy the right Queen Elizabeth II-like hat, of course.
Your dad's the best. I hope he sends you questions from across the continent via email
