plush
so today was rather packed. or last minute however you’d like. ended up bouncing over the border for a little hollister action and ivars…yes…bellis is still bunk..it always has been and always will be..it’s all just for the drive and that’s about it….stop off at silver reef then returned to canadian tire…
where i proceeded to purchase the gifts from the gift registry…no of course this had to be far more complicated than necessary. the gift registry computer of course did not function properly…so whatever i figure i know what the gift is i’ll just buy it and go tell the cashier. well of course the cashier is unable to process this without the gift regisry # which they can’t look up at the computer.
so they have to call someone who knows how to use the gift registry computer…which happens to only be the manager…so 5 minutes of waiting later a younger version of dan tyndall PHD comes strolling out…”maybe if you want to come back in 5 minutes i’ll reboot this computer and it will work” … i have absolutely no respect for him…partially because he reminds me of dan tyndall, and partially because he exhibits numerous qualities related to all my pet peeves….i respond by simply standing around with my hands crossed in disapproval.
he quickly reboots.. *get this - a pocket pc* which powers this whole damned thing…tries to print it a few times and finally gets it done..so apparently all i have to do is bring it up along with the gift they scan the barcode off the paper and i’m good to go…
but alas! the store registry is the current one and the web version which i had looked at previously must not be in sync because someone has already purchased the gift i had in mind…so on to purchasing 2 other gifts from the list…bring it up…
cashier of course has a hard time getting it working..and so eric chimes in…”i think he said you just have to scan the barcode”…with which the girl replies she’s just checking to make sure we got the right gifts…
*okay* you think i would have a copy of the registry from which i located these gifts and somehow decided to pull ones off the shelf randomly? anyways finally get it all purchased and so i walk away with which she asks me if i want to keep the registry….
i think the job application for canadian tire has only one question on it…. “do you reside in canada?”
anyways so i get dropped off at home where my mom whips up a quick dinner for me and i proceed to wrap these boxes dilligently…i manage to get a quick game of grand theft auto in before my dad who decides to watch asks me why i’m kicking a dead man lying in his own pool of blood repeatedly if he’s clearly dead…
it’s always best not to reply to such a question…i quickly shut off the playstation…and head out for plush…to enjoy the audible delicacy of mizthang’s thang…other than that … plaza is bunk.
but i did bump into some unexpected guests….like doris who i haven’t seen in ages..probably not since the last time we bumped into each other when we discovered her boyfriend was friends with a coworker of mine…then i bumped into emmy who was there because her friend works with danielle.
i found it quite funny when doris said she was there for her friends birthday…i had to ask who…since the huge ass club only had about 100 people in it…all of which could easily be accounted for belonging to either one group of friends or another…we soon found out doris was supposed to be at “the plaza club” not “the plaza” hahah…
we all leave this place and arrive at where else but the cambie wonton noodle house….for the usual combo meal and round table discussion of various intellectual matters….we decided to disect all our dating habits…unfortunatley somewhere along the way we got lost in the “j” section … then le got sidetracked, we demanded bobby get down on his knees, howie counted on his fingers, and i decide to spill hot tea all over myself and the table and floor…all this without really skipping a beat…
then in comes a pack of wildebeast…for which we all unanimously decide “BILL PLEASE!?!” we then cruise on down to the new casino as neither le nor danielle have seen it yet…or was it just le? oh well whatever reason we decided to go is not important..what is important is that we all went…
we discovered this important help line 1 888 377 6111 - they’ll help you with your troubles.
anyways after all this i’m finally back home…getting ready to sleep a bit..before i have to awake for the wedding…time to whip out the clean and crisps…
night everybody.
