In a few days, I will be going back to Winnipeg for my visit post-moving-away-for-college visit. I'm excited and I made a list of all the things I want to do while I'm there:
1. Eat poutine. America doesn't have poutine. It's really sad and I miss it a lot.
2. Hug my dog and never let her go. I miss her even more than poutine. Every time I see someone in the city with a dog I mentally prepare to steal it and figure out how to sneak it in to my dorm.
3. Drive everywhere and be super lazy. Living in the city, you walk a lot. Blocks, avenues, down stairs, up stairs, up hill, you name it. I can't wait to just move from couch to car to store to car to couch with none of that pesky walking to get in the way.
4. Make my parents buy me things. For obvious reasons.
5. Snuggle all my cats. I have a lot of cats. They all require snuggles.
6. Sing really loudly all the time. You miss the little things when living on a floor with 20 people.
Meanwhile, because I'm so excited to go home, I'm also having trouble sleeping and sitting still here, so I'm trying to fill my days with work and fun things to pass the time. Today I went and saw a play called "Venus in Fur", starring Hugh Dancy and Nina Arianda. I have loved Hugh Dancy ever since "The Jane Austen Book Club" and he gave a great performance in "The Pride" in 2010, and he was equally solid here. Nina Arianda was fabulous and deserves all the Tony's for 2012. I also managed to lose 'The Book of Mormon" lottery like 800 times today.
Poutine.
