I feel like I should make a super long post like Jess did last night. Although I believe I have significantly less alcohol in my system at this point than she did so my endurance may be put to the test! Also, I doubt it will take me an hour to write the entry. XD
On monday Jess and I went to the Jessies. Haha...JESSies with JESS. Anyroad, Allan was nominated for best performance in young theatre and when they read his name we booed him. :D And then the sonofabitch WON! GAH! So we really booed him with. Bonurnsed him even. Everybody else was cheering. XD And then there was an old actor people dance that Jess and I full heartedly grooved out to. Then it was an old actor people and US dance. Much amusement was had.
I hung out with Owlex and Nick and Jess on what was probably the most eventful Canada day I've ever had. Which is not really that hard to do because most of my Canada Day's are rather unexciting. Anyroad, Al and I went to Starbucks in the morning. Very Canadian, I know.
Then at 1:30pm Nick showed up and drove us to Jess' house (I almost spelled it howse o.O) where she was apparently not even dressed. No, she did not come out of the house in her underwear. Unfortunately. XD Then it was quite the challenge to try and direct Nick to Kits beach. Because he's direction-impaired. And lives in his basement.
We finally got to the beach around 2:30pm or so but decided it was too busy so we drove to Vanier Park and just walked to the closest piece of beach. I actually went in the rather cold water for a brief stint. Even swam a bit! But found I'm really rather a weaklingly when it comes to water. o.O Tried in vain to dunk Nick in the water. Dug a GIANT hole! Let it fill in with water. Jess and Nick were effectively trapped. Momentairly. Ate gross warm strawberries and whiskey. Oh and discussed the finer aspects of the structural integrity field in regards to galaxy class starships in the Star Trek universe.
Then we drove around some more. We were going to crash Sebastians BBQ but Jess chickened out. Then Jess had the brilliant idea that we could drive to Seattle! ALL WERE IN FAVOR EXCEPT NICK. WHO IS THE LOSE. So, we're trying to convince him to go on monday. Peer pressure was ineffective in convincing him this time around. We ended up at Bon's at around 7pm. Because we're cheap and classy.
Headed back down to a different beach in Stanley Park. Well, really it was the seawall. We thought we'd park and then walk down to see the fireworks. Forgot that the fireworks were NOWHERENEAR where we were. So we just walked around the seawall for a while. Drank some more alcohol. Nick climbed a lighthouse and pissed a seagull off. Jess and I talked about doing drugs in Amsterdam and wondering which ones we can peer pressure Carotron into doing. Almost died at the hands of some sword bearing Russian gangster bandits in the woods of Stanley Park.
Ended up at the park at the school by Waves and looked up at the stars. Nick was unimpressed that the light from a star can take upwards of 9 years to reach our eyes. And when light travels at about 300,000 km a SECOND that's pretty amazing. He was all meh. And then we hit him.
Oh I almost forgot! Alex talked to Hot Bon's Guy. For quite a while too and Jess confessed her love (at least to us) for Sebastian. :D
Then we all went home. It was a rather glorious Canada Day!
Now I am off to work :(
