But yeah, I don't know. How's everything at your end? You're back in the city now?

Yeah, it's quite remarkable. So I've been out of the continent for over two months, and I just got back to the Michael and us spiritual hometown of Toronto. Just exactly the moment that Luke left town. You are not in Halifax. You're two hours from Halifax. Where are you? What are you doing there? I'm in the middle of nowhere, where it's very beautiful. Yeah, it's just Western Nova Scotia, I suppose. Southwestern Nova Scotia. My mom's been out here for the past year and a half, my brother as well. Yeah, it's nowhere near Halifax, but that's where we landed a few days ago. And yeah, just kind of taking it easy.

You know, I still have to work, which I confess, I'm finding it a little more difficult to do

than I was hoping. You know, sometimes being in a new space can be very conducive to creativity

and inspiration. This apparently is not one of those times. I don't know how writing is for you,

but for me, I'm very routine based. I'm very habit based. I have a workspace at home that I've

cultivated pretty meticulously. I have my habits. I don't know. I find being away from those things,

it's harder to make inspiration strike. It may also have something

to do with it being, you know, a ways into December now and just, uh, my body and mind have never

accommodated themselves to the fact that like when you're an adult, you don't just get like

a whole month or six weeks off around this time of year you kind of just have to keep going i am planning

to take some time off soon but uh i don't know it's been a it's been a busy year and i'm finding

uh you know the amount of inspiration the amount of creativity i have is sometimes finite and i was

certainly feeling that today but it's very beautiful in nova scotia. I mean, I've been to Halifax

before, but never really properly to the province as a whole. And I mean, it just fits every

stereotype. Very nice people. Lots of really pretty little towns around here. Old towns looking

the ocean with old forts and old lighthouses, incredible breweries. I've had some of the best stouts and

porters out here that I think I've ever had. It's a reminder that in Ontario we have the most,

I don't know, anachronistic and just like plain stupid temperance era laws around the alcohol

you can buy and when and where you can drink it.

Much more chill and relaxed out here.

So from a relaxation standpoint, great.
