November 17, 1994: Adina broke up with me because she wasn't ready to lose her virginity


Thirty years ago today

            On Thursday I posed from 9:00 to 16:00 at the Ontario College of Art. After work, since I was broke I just hung around OCA until 17:00 and then walked over to model for the Harold Uplis Studio until 21:00. Then I went to the bank but I had to go all the way to Bay and Queen to find a bank machine that would issue only a $10 bill. Then I headed back west to the Indigo Café. Tanya was there and we chatted a bit. Adina showed up with her hair in beaded cornrows and told me we should break up because she didn’t feel that she was ready to lose her virginity. I walked her to the bus and then went back to the Indigo for Nik Beat’s open stage. I was the final performer and after leaving, as I was getting on the streetcar a guy got on who told me that he’d enjoyed my set. His name was Derek and it turned out that he was a bass player. He rode all the way to Woodbine and I got his number before he got off.
