On Friday we drove up to Montréal to bring Nigel back to school and for me to
meet with my friend Spencer for a two-day editing marathon. I wound up
drinking soda -- something I almost never do anymore -- eating potato chips,
drinking beer -- OK, nothing new -- and compounding these transgressions with
a massive departure-day breakfast a La Place Milton, the Cholesterol Capital
of Canada. There was no scale available, so I did not monitor my proress
(regress?).
