Canada + Candy + Me

Thursdays- am I right? Anyway, today I write to you from the scenic Laguardia airport in Queens, New York, where I am waiting to fly to Toronto for some hijinks at the 247th annual Toronto International Film Festival. Since I am 1/4 Canadian, I am pretty excited to be returning to my ancestral homeland for a couple days. I will let you know how it goes. I already missed my flight (read the e-mail with my flight information wrong cuz I was all hopped up on goofballs), but the nice people of Air Canada are letting me get on the next one. I am told I will be getting the same in-flight snacks that I missed on the earlier flight, so things should work out just fine I think/hope.

In other news, because I love candy and the Internet, I recently agreed to be the poster boy for an earth-shattering comedy contest put on by the futuristic Yahoo website and the Butterfinger candy bar people (not made of candy). They gave me money and free candy for doing it, so I honestly could not be happier about things. You can get the full scoop here. Wait. What? Did you just call me a whore? Stop it! That's not nice! Anyway, go to the website right now or I will stab you. You should totally enter this contest.

Okay, I have to get on the Canadian plane now. I will let you know if I run into Gretzky (counting on it).
