Have you ever looked at a map of Canada? Have you noticed how Manitoba resides within the boundaries of the Perimeter Highway surrounding Winnipeg? Anything else is the Twilight Zone, fogs of grey and wisps of mist?

I have. I’m so done with trying to bridge between the rural and urban communities. I’m tired of being bitched at and snarked to if we dare – DARE – to post an open event that conflicts with those held in the city. We’ve discussed it – we don’t care anymore. If our event conflicts with a city event, W-W-W-SIUP. We’re done. We’re over it. Our event dates stand from now on. No one comes out here from the city anyway, so what the hell is the problem???

I’ve had numerous emails in the last months in regards to certain events in the city. These people ask me the questions because Ariadne and I are listed as contacts for Glas Celli. We’re rural, too. They think I might have the answers. I don’t…I direct them to the website, and when they email back – saying they’ve not heard anything more – I tell them I just don’t know, and I just can’t help them.

Not only that…LOL…but there are issues involved, with NaNo…LOL. That one is just funny, and I’m so glad to see that the PV has it’s own person now. And she has access to books! Real, honest-to-gods books!

And yes, Jodi has returned to cynicality. And why not?
