Vendredi: Aller à Nanaimo

Tomorrow, Friday, is the last booking I have from my long life in the visual arts. I am sure there will be more. Invitations seem to never stop coming, but I want to retire that career and immerse myself in writing dialogue—scripts and screenplays. I am still stunned I can do it.

Tomorrow I have to leave here at 8:30 am in order to catch an Express bus to Horseshoe Bay at 9:00. Then I take the 10:30 am ferry to Nanaimo where my host, Gregory, will pick me up. Then we drive to Vancouver Island University where I will deliver my lecture at 1:00 pm. I have a three-hour commission. Then a drive back to the ferry terminal for the 5:00 pm ferry home. The bus should have me back home before 10:00pm.

I get paid for the three hours. Hence the desire to stop.
