hot days, and even hotter nights

Holy crazy week! It's been nuts...quick recap:

Thursday: Mirage with Katya and Candice. We felt a bit too old, mature and over-dressed to be there. At least highballs were $.99...weee!

Friday: Katya and I headed to Central City Brewing Co. Watched a Tragically Hip cover band ("The Almost Hip"), ate some yummy food, had a few drinks, played a couple rounds of pool and flirted with the guys. It was a h-o-t night too!

Saturday: Katya and I (yeah, yeah...we're good friends okay?! Haha) went over to Planet Java to shoot some pool, and have some tea. Afterwards, we grabbed a bagel from Tim Horton's and went and sat outside my Starbucks to enjoy the evening, cool air.

Sunday: Nothing exciting - I worked at night...awful shift.

Monday: Worked, had an unexpected visitor show up right at the end of my shift - so we decided to sit down, and talk a bit. A couple of hours later....Katya showed up, and the two of us took off. Stopped by the mall, dinner at Earl's: Margarita Monday! Then we went and saw the new animated movie, "Madagascar" - inviting along the unexpected visitor. The movie was fantastic! Stopped at Boston Pizza for a couple of drinks afterwards, and then everyone headed home. Good times.



Tuesday: Katya, Katrina (a friend from high school) and I went to Central City. Had a drink, shared some appies, and bought our tickets for Friday night. It was nice have a girl's night out - we talked about anything and everything!

Wednesday: Crazy day!

The Starbucks logo at my store.

I met up with Sergio at Starbucks, and then him, me and Sarah drove downtown. We hung out at the apartment in Yaletown that she's house-sitting, and had a drink.

The view from down under...actually, the view from the balcony.

Andria and Sarah...hanging out and drinking beer.

Andria came and met up with us, and we hung out eating some yummy Miss Vicki's Lime & Black Pepper chips.

Mmmm...

Headed over to The Templeton for dinner (mmm...good chicken burger - heard the soup was fantastic too!), and stopped by the liquor store on the way back to the apartment. Got back and went photo-taking-crazy and talked lots.

Me...taking my picture in the mirror. Haha.

Sergio: Snap Happy!

Such great people I work with! (Oh yeah - Sergio, Sarah and I all work together and Andria used to work with us). Ashley (yet another coworker) joined up with us, and then there were five. We walked over to the Commodore Ballroom, and met up with Katya. The six of us were going to see Danny Michel (who was opening for Kathleen Edwards - but we're not really a fan of hers). We lovvve Danny! He had such a great show, I'm so happy we went.

Our tickets...yeah, we actually saw Danny Michel and not much of Kathleen Edwards, but his name wasn't on the tickets.

Moi and Katya...."hold me up...or I might fall!"

Our feet! Guess who they belong to.....? Hehe.

Me playing peek-a-boo over Serge's shoulder...Smile Andria, smile!

Mmm...Danny.

Sigh...Danny.

We stuck around to talk to him a bit, and give Kathleen a chance...but alas, she didn't win us over. So we headed over to the Dufferin (I think that's how you spell it) - a gay bar, haha. It was hilarious in there! By then, four of us were quite intoxicated....LMAO. Ashley and Katya took off not too long after we got there, but the original four hung in. Hehe. Eventually, after a couple of pitchers of beer (Bravo Serge for polishing off almost one on your own!), we meandered back to the apartment. We enjoyed some more tortilla chips and salsa, and then Andria decided she should take off. Serge and I were crashing there for the night, so after having some yummy pizza, we crashed. Quite the day! 8 drinks in a time span of 10 hours...hmmmmm.

Thursday, yesterday: Sarah had to be at work super early, so Serge and I obviously just came back with her. I found myself eating breakfast at McDonald's at 7:30am. WTF? Haha. Came home...and went to sleep. I didn't wake up till after 2pm. Spent the evening at home alone, and then went out for a bit with Alison and Christine A. Nice, relaxing (aka 'recovering') day.

Friday, today: I worked at 6am. So early! Eek. Fun time at work...it always helps when the people you're working with are having fun too. Hehe. Katey and I even 'named' a customer...he never came while I was there though. We think he looks like a "Sean"...tee hee. So cute he is! After work, I was supposed to have a dentist appointment - but he put his back out, so my appointment was cancelled. Ahh well. Came home and relaxed a bit. Swept. Dusted. Washed some dishes. Did a general pick up on the main floor. Went grocery shopping. Had dinner (raw veggies, nugget potatoes & crab cakes), and now this. Katya and I might do something tonight...we're both being quite wishy-washy today though, lol.

Ok. Now that you're all caught up...I'm going to watch some TV.
