Second full day in Toronto, and I've been to Coffee Zone on Carlton St. twice now (hence my two checkins on 43 Places), since there isn't a Wireless Toronto hotspot nearby. I have a hotspot account with Telus, but the two Starbucks I went to didn't have power outlets in convenient spots. For lunch I grabbed a free slice of pizza at Pizza Pizza (since at the Blue Jays game the home team pitching squad got more than 7 strike-outs total), then went to the Apple store and got quoted more than double for replacing the casing on my chipped powerbook than an online retailer. I picked up Cory Doctorow's latest book, Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town, which I may not get started reading until the plane trip back. Still sunburnt, arms redder than they've ever been. The cream I bought for it should have come with a pamphlet entitled "So You Decided to Not Wear Sunscreen", since it stings like crazy.
Toronto Blue Jays
This is my first full day in Toronto, here for about a week. I've already seen a Blue Jays' game (my first ever in Toronto!) but they lost 10-5. Evidently there will be—or possibly already is—video of me singing terribly out of tune the "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" song during seventh inning strech, but you won't get me pointing to it! No foul balls came my, the closest one hitting a lady in the head. (The paramedics came down and everything.) I have a healthy sunburn on my arms and possibly my face, but that didn't spoil my good time, as the Jays belted out 4 home runs, two of them back-to-back jacks.
