[Toronto] The Ex. August 15 - September 1.

[randomness]

Anyone going? We're considering coming up. I haven't been since I was a kid, and bedfull_o_books hasn't ever been, but she's always up for going on midway rides. I'm not, so I'm seeing who else might want to check out the rides.

Admission is $14. An unlimited ride Midway Pass is an additional $31. (Otherwise you buy ride coupons which start at $1 for a coupon; rides cost from 3 to 6 tickets a ride.)

*perk* hmmmm. It is so long past time I visit Canada again. 9 hours is a long freewheelin' road trip though.

...what she said.

When are you thinking of going? I've never been to Toronto. And I'm always up for a totally random road trip, particularly one that will end with me getting to go on rides. :-)

I might be willing to go, but are we sharing gas costs? That's a pretty expensive trip otherwise...

I'm still...really broke. but if you do go up, I'd pay what I can scrape up for gas, so that I could maybe get out to tillsonburg to see my family again (I love the Ex, but you know, family that I get to see once or twice a year). I probably can't come up with all the gas money a share would be for me, so if you get someone who can come up with the whole thing, take them instead. But if you have space and want something to defray...

Oh, the Ex was totally the highlight of my last trip to Toronto.

Don't miss the ice cream sandwiches made with belgian waffles.

I'd love to go, but it depends on when you're thinking of going. This weekend, good, as long as I'm not in the Hamptons. Next weekend, not as good, but let's talk. Mid-week? Impossible.

Also? You and I need to catch up on what a major soap opera my life has been lately. Stuff I can't blog about, unfortunately.

But what I’m saying is it’s not correct—it’s demonstrably incorrect and we can explain its limitations and exclusions by pointing out its class origins and its hegemonic functions.

I expect to be in Toronto over Labor Day weekend. I don't know how much extra time I'll have...but maybe?

Hi! I emailed you but I don't know if I have your current address. Did you get any of my email?

If you have any good advice i would like to hear about it. In your opinion would it be better yo rent or buy a house, and what would be a good location.

Hey there!

I've had a serious hankering for Toronto, for various reasons. Do let me know when you're going... it just might push me over the edge and get me to just go already :D

That does look like fun.

It was good to see you last night - and thanks for reminding me about euros. I'm around til Sunday night so perahaps we can meet up this weekend and exchange money! I'll send you email now.
