Day 42: Vancouver (no Vancouver Island)

Location: Vancouver, BC
Date: Thursday, June 5th.

With a downpour outside and being unable to get in touch with DJ Chuck Norris (of the CHLY show I was supposed to attend in Nanaimo), I decided to stay in Vancouver.

I spent the day following up on show bookings (I really wish people would respond to emails & phone calls) and other tasks.

In the evening, I met up with a friends Freyja, Kasia and Zach at a nice cozy place called 'Falconettis' on Commercial Drive.

I'm exhausted and feeling a bit down. I'm way behind on all the tasks related to the tour, but I'm trying not to think about it. I'm also a bit disappointed to have driven all this way, but not make it to Vancouver Island... It'll have to be a trip all its own in the future!

I'm also used to playing sports a couple times a week, and I think the lack of physical activity is building up some unresolved angst!

I also don't like inconveniencing other people, so crashing at people's places can be stressful for me. Sometimes I prefer sleeping in my van just for that reason. So, after being on the road and crashing at other people's pads for 40 days, I'm definitely craving my own domain in Ottawa. Three more weeks and I'll be there for a 2-day layover before Atlantic Canada!
