Saturday...

• Walked to the new Convention Centre for the Women's Show, where I was helping Sheila at her Computertamers booth. Met Candace. Wandered the other exhibits from time to time; paticularly liked the ballbike (which I used for a bit) and the All Stars Dips.
  
• In the mid-afternoon, I met up with some other friends and we went to the Psychic Fair on the second floor, which had been poorly advertised and turned out to be tiny - very few psychics, very few people attending. I had a brief but excellent Rune reading, chatted to a bunch of people, and bought a recording of meditative music. Well, sort of meditative, sort of magical. I liked how it sounded.
  
• Lil is visiting from Montreal. She dropped by and we chatted for a while.
  
• deakat helped me take a load of comics from the storage facility to my place. It went well.
  
• I saw tulips on Third Avenue. Tulips! Purple and orange. Saw daffodils on the banks of the canal near Ottawa U. Saw hyacinths in someone's yard, with more daffodils. It must be spring.
  
• Actually, it could have been summer. It was a beautiful warm, sunny day.
  
• deakat and I then went to the Shanghai Restaurant on Somerset, where we enjoyed karaoke. Why didn't I know about this place? Had I know, and then forgot about it?
  
• I really, really wanted to get to bed early but it turned out there was a problem with my novel which I put online, so I had to reformat it - I tried to do it as an html document, but there were infinite glitches, and after hours (yes, hours) of fighting with it, I simply redid it as a .pdf and put it out.
