What I did this weekend

  • Friday night I arrived at YVR, and the immigration hall was full of people who had just disembarked from a plane from China. A disconcerting number of people were wearing face masks to fend of SARS infection. Whenever anybody coughed, an electric frisson thrilled through the room.
  • Using the stainless steel, hand-cranked Atlas pasta machine that Eric gave us, we made some ravioli.
  • Because of our pasta-making endeavors, we missed RAW ON, mentioned below, and the chorus of toothbrushing that was promised. Probably the only chance I'll have in my lifetime to ply my talents in a toothbrush orchestra. *Sigh*
  • Saturday morning, went to Capers where we had some coffee and a croissant, and then did some extremely slow shopping, sniffing the ayurvedic soap, and pinching the garlic naan.
  • Worked.
  • I finished a piece on Superpowers that Derek had requested for the Fray, which I'd actually written last week, but neglected to send before leaving for Mexico.
  • Started watching Dancer in the Dark by Lars Von Trier, starring Bjork. He's the director of Breaking the Waves, and this looks to be another gut-wrencher. Fell asleep 1/2 hour in.
  • Went to the Macaroni Grill for brunch. It is in a large mansion near our house, and we'd been meaning to check it out. Very average and overly expensive bruch. We won't be going back.
  • Worked.
  • Stopped in the gallery at Emily Carr and saw a bunch of art of a sacreligious/religious nature that was, for lack of a better description, pretty cool. Bought Shark 3 and nest magazine at the bookstore there.
  • Went to see Yellow on Thursdays, at Performance Works on Granville Island, by Seven Sisters amiga Sara Graefe.
  • Read Shark 3 and nest magazine. Had some great ideas for the Wail, etc. piece (no longer called Wail, etc.) which I neglected to write down, and have consequently lost.
  • Read Three Paths to the Lake by Ingeborg Bachmann. Chris in Hamburg wrote to tell me that Bachmann and Celan were lovers, which I didn't know, and also to recommend Summerhouse, Later by Judith Hermann, as well as a pile of other books.

Superpowers?

Not really, just have no TV and a Type A personality. Or is it obsessive-compulsive disorder? Or an overachiever complex? Disinclination to relax?

I also have no TV and tend to come from an overachiever's mentality, but when all is said and done, never accomplish nearly the amount I wanted! I think one of my problems is my perfectionism and over-attention to detail, which results in spending way too much time taking care of small parts of large projects.

But Raw On was on Saturday, not Friday! It was super delicious and way out there as usual. One of our best performance based tresures, including ocean waves of paper circling the room. It was spell bounding. Ahhhh.

The Macaroni Grill is a chain restaurant like the Olive Garden or TGIFs. I'm not surprised in the least.

DINKs: Dual Income, No Kids. They get more done in a weekend than we ordinary mortals get done in a month.
