Good day, good crit, good fun ... and I'm so liking the comments from my school friends .... can't wait for tomorrow night.

Saw my gossip buddy just in time this morning ... plenty of stories to exchange "I never knew a kiss on the cheek could be like that .... he's a really good kisser on the cheek." ... as well as a somewhat hectic meeting ... it's all about the common thread .... then finally a vision of what our experimental will be ... and a solo dinner followed by a meeting of some friends - old and new - at one place and then following down to a place that is becoming all to familiar. But I was a good girl ... I only had two pints of beer and a shot of amaretto and lime ... and I didn't even pay a cent ... but we will be going out again when it will be my turn. However getting an "ooolala" from three guys as I left the bar was the highlight ... until I had some company while waiting for my bus to go home. "Why did you come?" ... "It's one of those underanalysed moment in my life ... seems I'm doing that often lately ... I don't know how I got here." And as always there's always one thing that has to be said to slightly ruin it "So you're going to be a Krispy Kreme Groupie now?" ..."No ... I work there how can I be a groupie?" ... "Well you only work there one day." ..... Ahh ... yes ..... but that still can't spoil my time waiting for the bus.

I had a good night last night ... got home at 1AM ... good dinner, good fun, met some new people, even got to play pool for the first time in a long time ... and I found out I'm not the worse player.
I'm not really sure how much of my night I should be putting down here ... I'm not sure who will be judging, and whatnot ... I'm not even sure why this bothers me anymore. Things are getting so much more complicated the simpler they get. I should be elated right now ... then why am I trying to hid it instead?
Have plans to go out again tonight ... just got invited not too long ago ... and I'm not even sure if I will be telling them about my night ... I guess Saturday night will be interesting .....
And as a side note - "Bedroom eyes" may not be the right description ... sleepy is better .... but I think it has almost the same affect. Thanks for the fun night and I must admit the movie in my head did not replicate the actual events but the feeling was the same so there was no disappointment.

Well the FireGrill is not a favourite restaurant for any of the 10 people who dined there last night. Between slow service, bad serving techniques, rubbery chicken, expensive meals, and just a plain old bad experience, none will be returning anytime soon. After spending $19.63 on a meal I could have gotten at any fastfood restaurant (and enjoyed it better) for more than half the price .... we eventually left the restaurant ... after sitting from 7:30pm to 10pm. Then we made it to Unison Bar for some pool playing (woowee twice in a row I've played pool) and some drinks. That turned out to be the better part of the night ... I lost the two games that I played but I didn't get creamed so that was a bonus. Spend another $15 there ... this time on alcohol so it was worth it ....
Third time out in five days, fourth time out in a whole week .... hmm is this becoming a problem/habit/improvement in my social life? .... I'll take it as the latter and just admit to being a lush, how's that? On the other hand it was a night I needed ... and while downing half of my second Smirnoff Ice may not have been the greatest idea, it gave me just enough of a buzz to remind myself of why I was there. It's not used to forget ..... only to have fun ...... no problem there ....... none at all.

Well I went to work thinking I would most probably be in a piss-poor mood ... however that wasn't the case ... at least right at the beginning. Then the presence of a little twerp that I have the fortune of not working with often ruined it all ... I arrived in the krew room spouting threats about him such as "he'll be going into the cash drawer along with the change" ... and literally shaking. But then the mood elevated again. Got to witness an aneuyism brought on by milk - that was amusing "You put the lid on!! I'm gonna snap!!!" ...... "So what time did you get home?" "1:30AM" "But you finish at 12:30" ..."Yes but I was having so much fun watching him fight with the lid!" Ahh yes .... was a good night .... except for one little perceptive girl ... I'm hoping she's none the wiser now ... if not I at least postponed the inevitable for another week or so. Oh and I injured myself again - same arm too .... not sure if I have the right to blame somebody for that ... it truly is my stupidity .... altho a spotter would be nice for next time.

"I'll give you a special price," he says with a wink, "One dollar please." .... well I guess that means I'll be buying my morning coffee from you more often!!

Well going to Hurley's after a test didn't seem like a bad idea at the time ... however the tipsy walk to the metro to get home afterwards kinda makes me thing that making this a "every thursday thing" might not be a good idea. The best line of the night ...."I'm meeting my friend at 11AM at Wendy's on Peel" ..."Oh, that Wendy's", he turns to his friend, "You puked there, remember?"
Also - due to my big mouth ... seems like I'll be kissing the Grand Marshall, Mr.Hurley, at the parade on Sunday .... my mom's only worry is that I not get arrested .....
March 13, 2004
Hmm date #2 - what was the highlight? ... was it the terrible movie ... well actually it was a B-movie really ... was it the dinner at a favourite place of mine where I haven't been for awhile .. with of course the live music and the singing along ... or maybe the middle-aged man who was dancing with everybody ... and for once I wasn't part of that "everyone" ... the somewhat tipsy trip "home" .... being called amazing ... the interesting movie which I will have to watch again ... the comfort of watching a movie like that that has never been experienced before ... or maybe what was amazing was the trust I have in him ... knowing things didn't take a wrong turn when they easily could have ... the lovely amusing banter with friends on the way to the bus was nice too ... so all-in-all I guess there was no highlight this time.

Nothing much to recover from - no drinking after the St Patrick's Day Parade - and that was a good thing ... I've got a reputation to blow on that front. Everything was great tho - I got about 16 pictures at the parade - kissing the Grand Marshall and not getting arrested, some of the cool looking floats like the "good" radio stations, the ING Lion and the Telus Pigs ... I was lucky enough to avoid too many weirdos ... this was not my turn this year it seems ... however I did have the really close panhandler in Wendy's. Meh. Saw many interesting sights ... the village person in all leather ... the leprechaun that was sitting near us ... the constant pushing and shoving ... the revelation that perhaps next year we will have a differnt spot - and one NOT close to the street corner!!! The freezing cold in our toes and fingertips made us speed up the parade a bit and get someplace warm (we're the anti-parade!!) ... the metro ride met us up with a really angry drunk kid ... his poor friends ... then we met up with someone else and the "after parade" began .... with no alcohol (aren't you proud of me?)
Wandering around town with no specific place to go or any idea what we wanted to do got us both annoyed but then I also got my St Patrick's Day headband with the shamrock antennas broken ... so I guess it was a good thing I was looking less of an alien wandering around town at that point. Finally finding some direction was good ... altho crashing someone's house just in time for supper was never my thing and I will attempt to fix that in the future. Hanging out was fun ... I will have to agree on a tie at 4-4 since drawing blood deducts a point for sure ... and we will have to try again sometime ... music, movies ... very cool ... and tested patience will be ceased from now on ..... maybe ...... "You're not going to have one of those everytime you see him are you?" ... "No, Mom, I won't." ... "Good - I don't like it."
9:09 PM: As usual ... kinda doing homework ... and just fuckin' around:

Just when I think things are going fine I'm feeling like I'm supposed to feel guilty for getting on with my life. Well this time it's not going to work that way ... I don't feel guilty and I won't. Issues ... not my issues ....

So how do I begin this recap of a somewhat interesting evening I had last night? Actually it was a great night ... went out to dinner and spent a small fortune, but the waiter deserved his tip, and the food and company was really good. Especially the discussion (or shall I say argument?) between two particular members of our party. It kept it extremely interesting. The fact that the birthday girl almost didn't make it out of the restaurant ... the total was what? 4 drinks ... and you used to call me a lush!!!
Then we made it to the "interesting" part of the evening. (and the somewhat formula one-ish drive to get there ;->) We ended up at a dance club on Cresent as a backup plan since the line ups were incredible ... and I know that I will not be going back there. Never have I see nso many horny boys on a dance floor in my life. No sooner had we made it on the dance floor was my hand taken by some guy and he more or less humped my leg the whole time .... then I had the drunk guy walk behind me and just decide to stay there and sway with me to the music until I moved away, he spilled his drink on me and told me he would "be right back" ... after him was the pass off I got from another girl in our group (gee thanks) ... he was from Boston and "came to see me" ... riiiiight ... the last fellow was the most disgusting since he told me to "go wild girl" and then proceded to pelvis thrust against me. Needless to say the girls with the curly hair had been picked up 4 times each by the time I left ... and even the girl with her boyfriend got danced with no sooner had he left her to dance farther away (and her hair was starting to curl due to the heat in the room). I blame the curly hair completely.
The music was good ... we were right by the speaker so it hurt abit, but when they fixed the bass it was okay. All we were really missing was a bed (or a few) since it really resembled a huge orgy. But I was fortunate enough to not have anything to drink, had my head about me, and the guys that hit on me didn't put their hands in my pants or up my shirt ... so I guess it could've been worse. Altho ... had I had a boyfriend with me it would've been a much less eventful night.
Total tally: $30 dinner, $5 for parking (total was $15!!!!!!!!!!!), $10 cover charge to into the dance club, $1.50 to check coats, $1.75 for the drink I bought at the corner depanneur since I was so thirsty by the time I left ................. $48.25 (right now I'm up for some free entertainment.)

Good thing to hear: "You're so lucky to have a boyfriend who wants to come to your screenings ... I had to bribe mine."
Bad thing to hear: "So are you two exclusive? Or are you still up for dating other people?"

Spending the whole day together, getting lost and finding our way again ... meh it was an adventure ... meeting up with somebody special ... will be waiting for feedback soon ... going to Cafe Depot in thick fog - it was all good ... making it home in thicker fog ... not too bad ... going to Montreal and home again in fog so thick visibility was on average less than 3-4 feet ahead ... that was interesting to say the least. Had some naughty moments ... and some quiet time in a comfy chair in Chapters that was nice .... and I'm ahead with a score of 4-2 .... so one tie and one win for me ..... guess I'll be losing the next round it would seem.
