Post-AWP Chicago 2012 Post
This is a bit delayed considering it’s been a week since AWP Chicago 2012 (a necessary designation since this is like the third AWP I’ve been to in Chicago now). I started with odd chest congestion a few days before … Continue reading
Denver, Day Three
I think I’m in AWP-withdrawal, which I wasn’t expecting. Let’s hammer out the last day in Denver. Well, it started slow for just about everyone I know thanks to the drinking and altitude and lack of sleep. I think the … Continue reading
Denver, Day Two (Part 2)
It’s Saturday morning as I type this and I have a pounding headache, so bear with me as I try to narrate the rest of Friday. I met Joe and Chenelle Milford at the Starbucks at their hotel (after visiting … Continue reading
Denver, Day Two (part 1)

Montreal, Part Four
After that very romantic evening on Mount Royal, we spent Sunday morning lazing around and enjoying the view from Michael’s apartment and balcony, eventually going out for some Indian brunch at Le Taj and then hitting up the Montreal Museum … Continue reading
Montreal, Part Three
Saturday was slow going after being out so late, but we dragged ourselves out to meet up with Michael’s friend Vani who we convinced to accompany us on a long walk that eventually took us through the Old Port. But … Continue reading
Montreal, Part Two
Friday I woke to rain and the news that Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize. Don’t get me wrong, I like Obama, and I understand why they gave it to him not for what he’s accomplished (other than not … Continue reading
