First day back at work after my unplanned sick leave, and everyone says I still sound awful. They should have heard me try to speak five days ago... lol.

Anyway... I spent most of the weekend hanging out with [profile] akashaelfwitch, watching movies. Yesterday was the annual Gay Pride Parade... but I didn't go. Even though a good friend of mine was planning on going, and called me to ask if I would join her. We went together last year, and it was great - but somehow this time the prospect of having to elbow my way through a crowd of sweaty strangers on a hot summer's day didn't seem half as appealing.:( Besides, it was Sunday morning, and my idea of a Sunday morning doesn't include getting up early and going out. On the contrary, it includes sleeping in, reading in bed, taking my time checking email & LJ over breakfast, which is then followed by a long bath... so by the time I'm dressed and ready to face the world, it's usually late afternoon.:) That's the main appeal of a Sunday for me, and apparently even a gay parade isn't enough incentive to change it any more. Which probably means that I'm becoming more and more antisocial/reclusive/lazy/set in my evil ways as I get older... *ponders*

In other news, apparently if you happen to be a 'legal alien' in the US and have a valid green card (which I do), you don't need a passport to go to Canada. You just present said green card at the airport and they let you in. Seems kinda strange, especially since regular US citizens need a passport; but that could be because a simple state ID/driver's license doesn't carry as much legal weight as a passport, while a permanent resident card certainly does (for one, you could never get it without having a valid passport AND a visa in the first place, so...). Anyway... in that case, I can safely plan for Toronto; provided that my vacation request is approved, of course (which it should be; unless someone else from my department asks for a vacation at the same time, which would be an evil coincidence indeed). So... keeping my fingers crossed on that account. *smiles hopefully*
