Holy, it's soooo sticky today! Smog scares me. I have friends who live on Queen W. that have developed allergies/respiratory problems over the past couple years. So glad I don't drive.

Did another round of surveys today. I really love talking with the merchants; they have so many ideas and stories and experience. So far some are sceptical about the BIA, others are for it. No one against, yet. I just hope Councillour Vaughan can make it to the first information meeting. His personal endorsement for getting the BIA formed will make all the difference.

Went to visit my friend yesterday, found out she has MAS (Muscular Atrophy Syndrome). A sort of Parkinson's Disease. Goddamn woman is so special she can't even check out like a normal person; she has to die of something rare. She's like my surrogate boyfriend. I've got love in excess, and she's there to use it.
