Gonzo journalism: dateline Montreal

Having cleaned out all of the Pepsi, chocolate milk, McCains chocolate cake, and half a tin of BBQ Pringles yesterday, I am now forced to scrounge for something to eat for breakfast this morning. I don't feel like changing out of the pyjama-like clothes I have had on for 36+ hours just yet just in order to buy some croissants at the bakery across the street - I am saving that for when I take a shower. Fishing around in the fridge, I found some eggs, butter and some milk ... therefore scrambled eggs it is ... just need to make sure we still have some ketchup... we do !!!

Right now I am trying to balance the needs of typing this while making sure the eggs don't stick to the frying pan ... To push the eggs around, I am using the spatula that I used to cut the pizza (a great trick for cutting pizza I must say) - it still has some pizza sauce and cheese on it but that's OK. ... I just turned the heat down so i could type some more... my mujer (or is that novia), anyways my Hot Chick Wife™ would not be pleased at this spectacle.

For me, it feels like good old days from University. I still remember a big yellow bowl that I bought at Ikea with my parents when we went up to my university in Quebec City to drop me off for my first term... I used to use the Microwave to heat pasta in it, then dump in some pasta sauce and microwave it some more until there was a thick red crust starting from the top of the bowl, which would work its way progressively down the side of the bowl towards the center. This happens naturally when you don't wash the bowl between uses... hey, microwaving kills the bacteria, so where's the problem ? Needless to say HCW™ tossed that one when we started living together.

Got a call from HCW™'s friend in Calgary a couple of minutes ago while I was listening to Ramble On by Led Zeppelin. Great music to wake one up. I was up until 2:00PM not watching porn on The Movie Network if you know what I mean ... :o Damn, I am tired. HCW™ said I needed to get some sleep and had better do so or else. BTW, HCW™'s prognosis for getting the hell out of Dodge (ie: out of Toronto) where she has been snowed in for two days and on her merry way looks good so far. It won't be the weather that stops her but Air Canada... (And BTW, they have no idea where her luggage is...) I hope she makes it there as she has threatened to come back early instead, which would definitely put a stop to WWDOW pretty damn soon. That would suck but at least she could do the grocery shopping. Sweet.

Ken - your culinary habits haven't changed one bit in YEARS ! It's a clear wonder that you are still breathing. At least you didn't eat any happy happy donuts for breakfast. - Mary T.

Ken, Ken, Ken!!
You constantly amaze me on how you?re sorry state of a so call body, is able to survive on the horrific punishment you place on it. Sorry for being so blunt, but you know me I don?t mess around. I hope that when your Lovely wife arrives home, you thank her for looking after you. Let her feed you something that is good for you. Remember that a microwave can be used for good things, but it must be used with caution and respect!! I hope that my mere thoughts are of some use to you, and that you might take something away from them. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors in and outside of the kitchen.

Stephen M.
