Dallas, Jeremy, Mark, Dragon Ball, Chinese magazines, Denny's Cheese Soup, blogquiz
Note: LJ Kingdom Hearts Journey / Clue: The LJ Board Game / LJ Mosh Pit blogquizzes. (by Joly, Bill T, and Amanda)
I managed to take a quick shower before Jon and Dallas picked me up - they'd remembered my Dempsters white bread. (I checked it for green spots when I got home, and found none.. phew!) We talked about safety hazards, falling out of a car / jumping out of a moving car, Sarah McLachlan's early stuff which Jon still likes, Dallas and his busy studying, the crazy Japanese noise music playing in the car, Jon's monster number of books, novels, re-reading, Sunday dinners, Delta Fellowship, the Boredoms, the hockey game (we won 3-2 in a shootout while Ovechkin had a goal and an assist), and durian.
Grandma said that Jon had lost weight after almost 23 months of not seeing him, but everyone tells him that - even the aunties at church! Then we figured that she'd be that much more disoriented after her flight IF Jon played that crazy stuff for her. (some of it sounded like really high radio static!) When we got to church, Dallas complained that his head was itchy, so we joked that he had to wash his hair more often. Jon had a concert story for us, which didn't necessarily involve Dave: some guy was being a REALLY ANNOYING person and trying to mosh when nobody else wanted to. There were a few rounds of "WTF?!" but nothing that serious until the band reached yet another musical climax. Mosher Dude was attempting to mosh yet again, and knocked a girl down. Then some guys beat on him until he got kicked out of the concert... that's what he deserved since you DON'T DO THAT KIND OF THING!
The speaker was fine... there was a funny moment early on when he mentioned having TB when younger, which had certain circumstances. One of the teens misheard that as "TV," and had Steph correct him to everyone else's amusement. Speaking of Steph, Uncle Danny asked her to share details of her Mexico trip upstairs: she can't really speak Chinese THAT well, but apparently he took over with his translation for half an hour! (not five minutes as she originally thought) It seems that someone who was SUPPOSED to share didn't even show up, yikes! She went home with Dad shortly after our program had ended, which is probably a good thing since we ended up leaving church at 11 and going to Dragon Ball. (there were rumors of "last call" at Steamworks, but we couldn't make it there by 11:45!) Jon looked at a bunch of books he really shouldn't buy - I don't have enough cash right now to buy one so he can borrow it from me! Maisie told me and Frances about her grandma being 99 years old... wow!
I talked to Dylan for a bit about the Bible Study changes: since I suck at explaining things sometimes, he was confused! Then I did the wonderful thing of choking on some grain bread (not dipped in salsa as my previous pieces were :P) and reverting to instinct: NOT GOOD! He did ask whether I was okay... stupid seeds! At least I got some water, listened in on Jon's explaining the U-Pass to Quan and Joyce as THE BEST THING EVER, and aired some concerns to him about this change. I still have one which I've never told him or Karen, but maybe on Sunday, hahaha. Jon, Isabel, and I talked to Vania for a while: she was complaining that Sam, Mike, Darren, and some guy she didn't even know were bugging her by using these cotton balls on her jacket as tetherballs! Yikes. Then she asked whether I was going to Vivian's party: I still don't know, but I might tag along with Jon after the AGM for Commercial Drive coffee and then the Dallas Souvlaki House! (Dallas should SO GO THERE!) No pumpkins at Melia's, though he'd love to be there too!
Then I talked to little Gwyneth and Evelyn for a while, who seemed shy and non-talkative. Apparently they like salsa since their mom Teresa makes tacos all the time. She dropped a bomb on me by asking which weeknights I was free, and then asking for my number: while it's true that we live pretty near one another, I certainly wasn't expecting a dinner invitation! Guess I'm more hak-hai than I thought, since I asked whether she was sure, haha. Of course she was, but sometimes you never know... After that, I talked to Sheena / Hannah / Priscilla / Stanley about books and such before Dallas joined us. We discussed scary movies, Toronto, snow, liking to read (yay for the kids!), hairstyle, and more.
After that, I had to listen to Jon / Dallas / Dylan talk about work and careers in our society. I knew we had to meet Jeremy somewhere, but we were the last ones to leave... the cleaning crew were really starting to clean by the time we left! (men!) We picked up Jeremy and his brother Mark on Broadway after discussing Dallas' crazy morning landlord interruptions. Yup, of course I remember Mark: apparently, he likes true crime as well, though I've never confirmed it with him. (don't ask me WHY...) We saw Eric M. at Dragon Ball, who showed us digicam pictures of the game that Jeremy and Mark had gone to Original Joe's to watch. The Chinese magazines at Dragon Ball were very amusing as usual, but some of the pictures were creepy! (guy in the shower with his hands all over a girl?!)
We discussed Halloween costumes (the guys saw a burglar going into a bank!), hockey, hymns, worship music, tomorrow's plans, and crazy bubble tea combinations: banana (Eric), avocado-dessert tofu with half sugar (Jon), blueberry-lychee with pearls and coconut jelly (me), watermelon-green lotus with black grass jelly (Jeremy), and other possible combinations. Too bad they don't have durian anymore because then Jeremy could combine strawberry with it! When Eric mentioned bringing back BEHOLD WHAT MANNER OF LOVE, we all laughed at Dylan's reaction of putting his head in his hands and moaning, "NO!!!" Playing majestically on the piano, playing certain keys on the guitar and wrist protectors, ESCC nominations, and more were all related to that somehow! Then we discussed the flavors which would curdle if milk were added to them: Jon apparently put Bailey's in some drink at that dinner a couple weeks ago, and it instantly curdled in the glass!
Jon and I drove Mark and Jeremy home: their parents were staying in a hotel somewhere tonight. We weren't going to say WHY they were in a hotel, other than that it got way too crowded at Jeremy's otherwise! But they'll stay there tomorrow night because of church the next day. We both liked the guys' lines of "Dad would be more open to drinking beer if Mom weren't around! Remember that time when Dad had one beer before dinner and remarked that it was the drunkest he'd been in a while? I don't think Dad's EVER gone for a beer!" Good times, indeed. :D
Also, I just figured out (after 10 months) that my phone has TWO controls for volume, one on each side. Now that I've adjusted both, maybe the phone will truly be turned off when I want it that way! :P (and no, that was NOT a Backstreet Boys reference either! Aiya...)
