It’s Warm In Canada

by Elena on November 12, 2009

It’s warm in Canada in mid November.  This is not what I remember from last year, where the first snowfall came before Halloween.  There are vague memories of running out of my apartment in a tshirt and flipflops with a friend who had never seen snow before, only to turn right back around once the novelty wore off and my toes started to get numb.  It was just a dusting, but snow just the same.

This weather is unexpected but most definitely a welcomed surprise.  Hence after an eventful day of query and cover letters I will be off again to wander about and enter various cafes and bistros.  I need to work on the pending assignments I had been putting off.  Not a bad gig afterall, working while sipping a latte and having a Montreal bagel.  Despite all the gripes and difficulty I may have experienced with my transition to freelance, there have most definitely been many perks, my jaunt through Montreal being one of them.  Although I still haven’t figured out a complete balance with the freelance world, maybe that is the point.  Working for oneself has it own set of problems and with freelance you are working by yourself, not necessarily for yourself.  After complaining for about a week or so, I’ve decided to stop, get to writing, and maybe have a cafe au lait or two.
