The other day a friend made the following comment, “Have you heard of this new blogging thing? A bunch of nerdy geeks, telling people all about their lives.”

Nerdy? Who us?

Hell no. We just have super interesting lives,…..

I am quite positive that I am NOT geeky. Sure this weekend I spent a bit of time watching “Becoming Jane” and then going through my “The Shakespeare Bible” realizing I’ve only read a handful of plays, vowing to finish Henry the sixth before I leave for Mumbai.

But the rest of the weekend there was music, food, debauchery, good friends and two new friends.

One new friend is particularly delightful. A fellow blogger, with so much spirit and life in her that I feel compelled to drop a corny line like “Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. ...”

Her blog is a somewhat funny/somewhat sad collection of dating and love stories, but it doesn’t quite prepare you enough for how funny and animated she is in person. And her friend Seema is just as funny. I think Seema should start her own blog...one about reality shows, her knowledge on reality shows is simply astounding....

So here’s a big Cheers to new friends and old ones.

On a side note, us Toronto Bloggers are going to be meeting for Indian Chinese food, any other Toronto Bloggers interested in coming? Email me,
