of the city. Today, he sent me to Old Montreal (which I've seen once before but love it) and some other interesting places. (Apparently I'm not into details tonight). Here are pictures from my errand running: a random pretty building in the middle of town, a daycare group walking through Chinatown (I kept ending up behind herds of little kids everywhere I went today), and a free-standing building that's an ice cream shop.I'm helping Francois put together a proposal for a grant. If only I
knew anything about proposals...but he won't let me help, other than to put the paper in the binders. I find this funny since it's only the second proposal he's ever written, and I've done, um, probably too many. Proposal writing is the one thing I could actually do competently here...but okay, whatever!Towards the end of the day, Mathieu Drouin (director) stopped by the office to ask me if I could help him add English subtitles to his film. One day last week when we were running errands together,
we stopped at a Tim Horton's for lunch. It's the equivalent of a Dunkin' Donuts in the States, except for that you buy lunch and the donut of your choice comes with it. Long story short, he remembered which kind of donut is my favorite (Boston Creme), and came equipped with one as payment for my subtitling assistance. Thoughtful! He also invited me to a party this Friday, but he "might not be there." Huh?
