always right

+ we went to tofino in early june. late may? for a wedding. i was humming poppy family songs all weekend. then in europe i spent the first four days wanting to listen to joni mitchell. sitting and reading ice station zebra beside the pool in gargnano. i know who i am by where i am. when i don't know where i am, i lose my sense of myself. simply walking into town was crazy. the streets and signs are different.

+ beer this afternoon at the pub after a day in which i felt down and blue. i told people that i just wanted to go home and read sci-fi novels, which was true. is true. although, i'm at home now and i'm not reading anything, sci-fi or not.

+ saw a film last week in class called megadream, about the socreds and northeast coal development. bill bennett and bc place. it makes me think of wood paneling and scotch in tumblers. office windows overlooking burrard inlet.
