70s Party!

Whoa, how do I fit this all in one blog post? I may not be able to.

This weekend was busy but it sure didn't feel busy, it felt lazy, but I did so much stuff, it can't be lazy at all!

Friday was Shannon's 30th bday party and what a better way to celebrate than to have a 70s theme, since that's when she was born. We all dressed up. For a pictoral documentation of this go here:

From November2007

One thing I don't have pictures of from the bar is the firefighters from the firefighters calendar, they were there. I suppose they weren't as ripped as they looked in the calendar, but I thought they were pretty good looking. Might of had some good beer goggles by that point in the night though.

Also, ironically, the two worst dates of my life were there. I totally didn't remember either of their names. For those that have heard my bad date stories it was Staple Gun guy and Wall Punching guy. Luckily they didn't remember me, well if they did, they didn't approach me. I also can't believe I picked up regulars at the bar. I swear I asked them the leading questions to make sure they weren't regulars. Or, more egotistically, maybe they became regulars after they scored a date with me. I'm a pretty good catch.

We all had lots to drink, lots of dancing was done, I don't even remember some of the night apparently. I've never had that happen before. Saturday morning I was looking for my blue sweater, I realized that I left it in Darrell's car at the bar. Then he comes out of the living room with my sweater, I don't remember going to the car to get it before jumping in the cab. Scary. But nonetheless it was fun.

Saturday I had quite the headache. We decided to go for breakfast at Humpty's. I love the half litre of tomato juice I get there. The servers always question me when I order a humpty sized juice. "Are you sure you want that much tomato juice?" Of course I'm sure! But we went to the restaurant and waited forever for our food. The waitress finally comes and gives it to us and walks away fast. I look at mine and I can tell it's been sitting for a long time. It had hollandaise sauce on it, of course, but it had gellified. I touched Darrell's and his eggs were ice cold! We started eating it, we were starving by that time. The waitress didn't come back till the end of our meal, and was no where during the meal, I told her it was horrible and cold, and she tells us when we're done to just to walk out. Don't bother to pay. Weird, never had that happen before..... So yeah free cold breakfast.

We saw American Gangster that night. It was a pretty good movie, I enjoyed it. The beginning was a little slow for me, but it picked up.

Sunday I went for a walk to visit the muskrat and got some good pics of him in the above album. Also went to the pool for 2 hours to help Darrell with his swimming. I was quite impressed with the progress. And I ordered a tonne of greasy chinese food for supper and for lunches this week. mmmm, chicken chow mein, almond gai ding and szechuwan been. So yeah lots was done, but it didn't feel like alot, it was fairly relaxed.
