trillium

i'm so glad that it's warming up – a true reflection of spring. i'm cracking out my summer clothes and thinking of painting my toenails.

the best songs are full of poetry. lovely, compelling, honest-to-goodness intertwining poetry.

today i registered for a writing course thru slc. emma wants me to develop my business writing skills into the direction of persuasive writing or marketing writing. i searched for seminars in toronto or ottawa, partly because i liked the idea of traveling for business. but taking a course locally has it's advantages as well. the course i'm taking isn't just a seminar, it's actually a correspondence course, which i've never done before, but brendan does them often enough that i have an idea of what it's like. i'm actually really excited about it. it's the first official educational course that i've taken in 10 years. i like the idea of having a certificate that confirms that i'm a qualified writer, it means i can actually offer those skills on a professional arena instead of just creative writing.

gotta run! b and i are meeting robb at tommy's dinner for dinner! exciting!

if i had an orchard, i'd work till i'm sore.
