Apple pop rules!
Erin, Derek, Darren, their parents, and grandma came over to the townhouse for dinner tonight. Steph decided to go out to eat with Daniel and Michelle before going back home, which sorta made sense. We just had a lot of food, with some Manzana Lift (Mexican apple pop) / Jeremy's year-old homebrew / Belgian pink Rosi fruit beer. Jon did bring some Amnesiac IPA ale out, but put it back afterwards. Talked about weddings, Jon's groomsman / MC duty, people at that banquet who got bored with the speeches and said so when the groom came to give HIS, how we'd love to see it if Erin ever emceed a wedding, the expense of weddings (Chinese = "I'll pay the clothing costs for you" vs. Caucasian "Pay for it yourself!"), Phil and Grace making up for lost time, Hon getting married, slideshow presentations, and such topics. Jon joked that he and Harmony were going to elope since it's cheaper, but our parents wouldn't be impressed AT ALL. I know they wouldn't be impressed if I pulled a Mimosa / Tilia, and handed them a wedding invitation with one month to go and said that they could come if they wished!
Discussed Harmony's insomnia as well as sleeping pills - they might not be the best course if you don't want to form a dependency on them, but are fine in the short term. It just gets frustrating when you're lying awake for hours and can't get to sleep! (Jon can't relate to her because he can sleep almost instantly) Erin says that Jeremy asked her and Angus where to get syringe droppers for beer-making (not soap): they'd know, since they're in pharmacy! We talked about the Mexico trip (Darren was going to go last year till he injured himself), the fireworks, that arrest we saw last night, getting home REALLY LATE, their jet lag from China (Derek fell asleep later), past church grad banquets like Erin's roast of Steph two years ago (Nathan doing a Tina Turner backup dancer was so funny that it got the Pho owner to look in at us from the bushes!), the guys roasting Ivan and Chris, Julie and Mei Lin's reciprocal roasts last year, etc. Good times, especially when we saw Tom Glavine get his 300th career win in the Mets-Cubs baseball game. (not that I care overmuch about baseball, but it passed the time - as did some gameshow about games [META] and poker stuff) Told Erin the recent incident where my grandma got really cranky at being asked to change from pajamas into something more suitable when my parents thought Dallas was coming over for dinner - and then got crankier when Dallas didn't come because he slept in! Jon played some Metallica / Green Day on his guitar (ENTER SANDMAN / TIME OF YOUR LIFE) while teaching Darren MORE THAN WORDS by Extreme. Told Erin about Korey, and showed her a picture. Later, I emailed Eric H. and Danielle about the same subject. Erin thinks it's exciting, and I agree! Steph just got home at 10:15, so I said hi to her before I left - Jon was on the phone, so I couldn't really leave. Oh well. :P
I put "pomeranians" in a Google Image Search, and got cute-looking results. Here's one:
