Well, after nine months on and off working here in Philadelphia, it's finally over. I am getting up super early tomorrow for my last trip to PHL to fly back home to Saskatchewan. I'm going to be getting in around 10:30am and I think I'm going to take the rest of the day off.

My last few weeks here have been pretty much business as usual. I've felt under the weather a lot, so I spent most of last weekend in bed. I managed to head out and catch Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, which was a good flick. That style of filmmaking really illustrates what the movies are all about. I also headed out on the town a couple times. Last week me and John went into the city to get a cheesesteak from Pat's and then did too much drinking downtown at the Independence Brew Pub and the Irish Pub. Last night, we went out for sushi and saki before getting a bottle of Black Velvet and heading back to the hotel to commiserate the end of the project. It was great to hang out with him away from work, especially since he recently got notice that he is being deployed to Iraq :(

This weekend should hopefully be a quiet one. Poker is scheduled for Saturday night so that should be fun. I still have no idea where I'm going to be working next. I pretty much have a position set up to work in Connecticut until the end of the year, but I am trying to get on another project in Dallas instead. We'll see!


We drank Black Velvet and listened to "Tragically Hip" because we wanted to end this "trip" in West Chester, PA Canadian Style. The interesting think is, we went to the "package" store to get Vodka, because Derek mentioned Vodka when we were at the sushi bar. Instead, we got cheap rye. I guess we had too much "saki". Did I mention "South Park" episodes?
