If you want to sleep on a dirty bed, it's your call... *dubious*

Dinner with Dallas was cool. He says that school isn't as busy for him now as it was before midterms, so that's a relief. Apparently, he's in Richmond temporarily till April-ish, when he moves into UBC residence with the start of summer. He applied last year, but couldn't get in since it was too late. Thank goodness he won't have to move anymore for now after this latest move! Steph was shocked when he told her that people had exams on Saturdays AND Sundays... gee, don't touch the weekend with the taint of exams! We watched the news: it apparently snowed in Coquitlam today, and Dallas thought it was TORONTO on screen since they had a big snowstorm yesterday!

Jon gets back at midnight 9:30 or 10 (my mom always gives me the wrong information!), and it's a good thing because 24 takes precedence over the ugfart! I joked that Mom would have to send Dad to pick him up, but they need two people to go to the airport: that way, nobody has to park the car and pay an extra fee! Grandma would be a bad idea to take... she gets lost and disoriented easily! Oh well, it's all good. He knows of our addiction, and is perfectly fine with it. Once he gets back, his Lenting meat will be a new thing to Mom. "We need to cook ANOTHER dish for him?! He should Lent beer instead!" I don't think he will, although apparently the people at Steph's Saturday dinner were joking that they were all getting old since they wanted tea afterwards. Only one or two people wanted coffee, and nobody wanted a pop since that would be a cold beverage! Hee, Dallas and I also opted for tea after dinner tonight since we both wanted to be able to sleep! (no caffeine, says Mom) Then Steph drove him home, so it's all good.

Steph told me that Phil is now engaged to Grace: that's good news, since I was just thinking that if he went five years with her without anything happening, he'd have done ten years in (mostly long-distance) relationships without anything to show for it. Not that he and Grace have been going out for five years - only about two or so. Megan's still hurt over the way it ended with Phil, according to what I hear of my mom's phone conversation with Auntie Grace. Dave told her about the news, so of course they're discussing Jon / Harmony and Dave / Tiffany. Ah, good times...

My grandma is so weird! Sister asked her what she was doing today: "Oh, we just went to pick your sister up." Um, she and Mom went shopping beforehand AND afterwards too... Then there's this recent exchange:

Me: *goes into Grandma's room, sees Kleenex on bed, goes to sister's room to tell her about it, then returns* There's a Kleenex on the bed, Grandma.
Grandma: I know.
Me: Here, let me take it for you. *picks up Kleenex with intention of dumping it into garbage*
Grandma: *takes Kleenex from my hand* No, it's DIRTY!
Me: *goes into sister's room to tell her about THIS* Okay, fine... it's not MY bed and I'm not sleeping in it...
Steph: Well, if you want a dirty Kleenex on your bed, that's your call... crazy Big G!
