When I moved from the town to the country it was to go to my first home of my own.  My immature, instinctual side is in check now, but taking the leap from operating on this basic level to becoming a more aware human being is a melancholy experience. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: How do you enjoy yourself these days? </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: A good cup of coffee, spending time at home, fixing the place, talking to my friends. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: Do you spend time with your friends? </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: Not as much as I wish, work keeps me busy 9 months out of the year in Toronto and on weekends I fly back to Montreal. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: Is your home your hideaway? </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: Being an actor, I found that I needed something concrete to manipulate and fashion at my own will and see the results right away. The house is like that for me. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: You seem like a very intense and aware person. When you're on your land, in your house, what do you think about? </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: I like to look at stars, and I like to read about philosophers, and then I think about the house. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: You must be very clear-headed now. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: Sometimes yes. A little bit more than I was. That's for sure. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>QP: Are you a poetic, romantic kind of guy? </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>RD: I have that side, yes.
