What my weekend looked like: Nov 5-7, 2010

Monday, November 8th, 2010

Since it’s Monday morning (when I write this) and I’m lazy I’m going to simply copy/paste my list and add comments…

Friday night:
17:45 – Body Attack gym class.
DONE! Was a good class. I really enjoyed it. Tried to go shopping afterward for purple t-shirt or some kind of gym pants but nothing appealed to me.

19:00 – Go home. Farmville. Sleep.
DONE DONE DONE!

ALSO, before going to bed I ended up purchasing the flights for my epic Take That journey next June/July. I will be leaving YYZ June 26, arriving at LGW June 27. Then Leaving LGW July 4th and arriving back in Toronto the same day. (Technically only 3 hours later!)

Saturday:
09:30 – Demo(nstration) class for martial-arts cardio at gym. We get sticks!
DONE! It’s called Bokata, and my a$$ really hurts! I showed up late which was a bit horrifying. But that’s okay, especially when the class ran long and ended about 15 minutes after it was supposed to. It was a super duper challenging class with the person who invented it, and she didn’t offer any “low impact options” so I did what I always do which is make up my own. I was in the far corner at least. And I could definitely see why the class limit was necessary!

??:?? – Demo(lition) of a house for Wayne Manor music video shoot.
DONE! It took FOREVER! I told the guys earlier I would be there when I could. Which would be after the above class. So I would leave Markham around 12 noon. (Time to go home change etc.) Txted them around 12:30 to say I’m leaving, the dude told me “Perfect! We’re still in Scarborough!” which lead me to think “Screw that, I’m staying home another hour” and did just that. Showed up around 14:00 along with the guys & did some shooting, did some painting & general mayhem. Also the band may or may not be called Wayne Manor anymore.

ALSO after driving back from Wick Ontario straight into downtown I was invited out to cuddley-boo’s best friend’s birthday dinner thing at some downtown restaurant. Where we both ordered rare steak. And he’s beginning to realize the irritatingness that is two people who always order the same thing. Haha.

??:?? – cuddle with my cuddley-boo.
DONE! This I was definitely expecting to be done.

Sunday:
??:?? – Sleep in while Cuddley-boo goes to work.
DONE! Also Farmville’d from when I got out of bed around 10am til about 2pm when I finally left the house to venture out for breakfast/brunch/lunch/food. At Timmies.

12:00 – Sell off excess CD’s/DVD’s at Sonic Boom
DONE! Sort of. For one thing I didn’t hit the stores until about 15:00.Also, I sold 2 DVD’s + 16 CD’s for $8.00 at Sonic Boom, then another dvd for $4.00 at BMV

16:00 – Bondage/Fetish photo shoot with photographer I met on okC
DID NOT HAPPEN! First off we changed photo shoot to “meet up for coffee” because there wasn’t going to be enough time to get photos done before football.  Also he apparently texted me around 14:30 to let me know he would be running late & needed to cancel. However my phone failed to notify me about this (it normally beeps & continues to beep until I check it and will tell me “1 New Message”) so I was sitting outside Spadina station from 16:00-16:30 until I gave up & called up Football boy instead.

ALSO because of the now completely cancelled meeting with photographer from okC, I called up Football boy to see if he wanted to hang out. And he was okay with the idea. So we hung out where he threw a football at my head while we were sitting and watching a DVD about the Edmonton Eskimos. Was interesting. But not very tutorial-ly for what I was hoping for.

18:00 – Flag Football game – Grapists vs Sunday Football Team 5B
DONE! During offense I just kind of run around like a chicken with its head cut off. During defense I count steamboats and try to block the visual of the quarterback. Not that I really know what I’m doing. I also need to get gloves or something if I ever want to really catch a football. Those things are mighty slippery! Oh, and the Grapists won 6-1.

19:00 – Flag Football game – Grapists vs Illegal Contact
CANCELLED! This game was actually cancelled Friday afternoon after the list first started. So we all headed home an hour early. And there’s 9 weeks left of play.

20:30 – Cuddle with my cuddley-boo.
DONE! Although this was about an hour earlier, we also went to grab take out Pho and drank beer while watching the Animation Domination halloween specials that were all a week late. Which is slightly amusing. We missed about half the Simpsons halloween special though. Also, take-out pho is extremely difficult to eat because it comes with some assembly required.

What my weekend should look like: Nov 5-7, 2010

Friday, November 5th, 2010

Since it seems all I do is complain about work, or laugh at myspace marriage proposals, or the occasional weekend recap, I think that the weekend recap should be a thing that I do all the time.  And it felt pretty fun to do what I did at the beginning of the week, by posting both my expectations and posting what really happened.

I think I’ll try to make this a trend.

Friday I’ll post what I plan on doing over the weekend.
Monday I’ll post what actually happened on the weekend.

So here’s what I’m planning this weekend:

Friday night:
17:45 – Body Attack gym class.
19:00 – Go home. Farmville. Sleep.

Saturday:
09:30 – Demo(nstration) class for martial-arts cardio at gym. We get sticks!
??:?? – Demo(lition) of a house for Wayne Manor music video shoot.
??:?? – cuddle with my cuddley-boo.

Sunday:
??:?? – Sleep in while Cuddley-boo goes to work.
12:00 – Sell off excess CD’s/DVD’s at Sonic Boom
16:00 – Bondage/Fetish photo shoot with photographer I met on okC
18:00 – Flag Football game – Grapists vs Sunday Football Team 5B
19:00 – Flag Football game – Grapists vs Illegal Contact
20:30 – Cuddle with my cuddley-boo.

Check back Monday to see what really happened!

What really happened

Friday:

  • Home.
  • Farmville.
  • Sleep.

Late Late Friday + Dangerous Dan’s Saturday… Nom!

Sunday, September 12th, 2010

Nom. For serious.

Friday night after discussing how there was “nothing to do” I ended up letting it slip that there’s a list of bars that are allowed to continue to serve alcohol until 4am because of TIFF (courtesy of the BlogTO link here) and after researching the list and finding… pretty much none of them being places I would probably get into… we settled for Bovine Sex Club.

Where we then proceeded to drink, listen to live music, meet up with some people and then around 3:30 am rolled out of there, into Shanghai Cowgirl for some awesome Philly Cheese-steak (I think that’s all I’ve EVER eaten there) before going home.  While the idea of staying awake until 7am is awesome-tastic. It is a bit difficult on the sleep schedule.  Also with the amount of ingested alcohol, there was a definite feeling of hung-overness.  Coupled with the dehydration that probably caused all my joints to seize during the morning that we slept in… oww.

Me personally, I can’t stay in bed too late, no matter how late I entered that bed. I woke up around 8am… again around 10am… again around noon. I think around 12:30 I gave up on sleeping anymore and did the morning routine thing while cuddley-boo slept. And he’s a cutie when he’s sleeping BTW.  I finally let cuddley-boo sleep until “The crack of 3″ as he calls it, before he gave up himself and rolled himself out of bed.

Time for Dangerous Dan’s!!! Squee! Cuddley boo has never been there(?!?) and I haven’t been there in almost two years.  And there was much discussion when we arrived over what it was we wanted to order. I had to show cuddley-boo what these burgers looked like online a few weeks ago when I first started talking about the awesometastic burgers, and I think he could already feel his arteries clogging.

After much hemming and hawing, he went with what I think they’re mostly known for… The Coronary Burger Special (2x 8oz Patties, 4 Slices of Bacon, 2 Slices of Cheddar and a Fried Egg on top. Served w/ Fries and Gravy, Can of Pop) and grabbed a second Coke to wash his down with.  Me? I ended up getting The Big Pig (8oz patty, 4 slices of bacon, 2 peameal, cheddar, mayo, lettuce, tomato) and a large Elvis Shake (Chocolate, peanut butter, banana)

It didn’t take long to arrive at our table, but I think we spent a solid 20 something almost 30 minutes just trying to down the burgers that were placed in front of us.  And… neither of us actually finished. Too… much… food.


1. Coronary Burger – about the size of Cuddley-boo’s head
2. The Big Pig Burger – not quite as big, but still Epic.
