Current mood: blithe
This week is, like, the most exciting party week ever. Almost.
At work, I managed to score 4 passes to Playland for tomorrow night. These are like magic passes because it's an all-in-one party: free parking, free admission, free rides (including the Drop Zone, which normally costs $20 all on its own; who actually pays to be terrified? oh, wait, zombie movies...), free music (pass... I'm sure it will involve classic rock cover bands), and free food. But I never realised that Wednesday is the new Thursday which is the new Saturday, because I had a hard time finding people lacking Wednesday night plans. Or people that don't suffer from back problems. That wooden roller coaster rips the crap out of your back and it always feels like the wood is rotten enough to collapse at any moment. I guess that's the real fun of the thing because it doesn't go upside down, but you always feel like you're going to die. It's almost 50 years old. How long does wood last in rain?
On Friday I'm hoping to go to a Legion out toward the ferry to see my friend perform a few songs at an Elvis tribute night. He's getting ready to go to the big Elvis Festival in Penticton where he's competing as Young Elvis. Really, I'm more excited to go to the Legion and drink beer and clamato. I love the Legion.
And I get to see my little buddy August, now almost 3 months old, Friday morning. He rocks. He also likes Belle & Sebastian so we have a lot in common. But he's not quite a conversationalist yet. Just fakes me out with half smiles.
