Detroit won the Cup!

Bingos of the night so far:

DODGEMS (104 points) - against Leanne F. [hooked off ODDS, on a triple-word score]
TAMARIND (78 points) - against Jason Y.
BITTERNS (80 points) - against Jason Y. [different game than above; on a TWS]
PROLINES (83 points) - against Pat K. [on a triple-word score]
NIDGETS (82 points) - against Anne F. [hooked off DARN]


Vivian came over to the townhouse for dinner, which was quite nice. She got Steph the whole HARRY POTTER series, and we talked about fish paste / fish balls / fresh beef balls (yay for Uncle Gabriel's connections!) / her teaching / interviews / Saltspring Island / meetings at Bridge / a bully kid with a chairperson mom. Man, Steph is gonna arrest that kid in future, heh. Margaret L.'s dad is generous, and got her a car for her 16th birthday! She wants to save up to move out, so took summer school as a teaching option herself. Turns out that Vivian's parents' anniversary is the same day as our parents' - but five years later. Then they figured out that Vivian was born exactly 1000 days after Steph.

Then we watched the hockey game - Detroit won the Cup! (on a rather lame goal...) Steph said that she and others had asked Josiah (a Leafs fan) on Sunday if he'd "lose" his dad's Nicklas Lidstrom bobblehead for money. Then yesterday, Steph had seen Pastor John and asked if his son deserved a raise in his allowance if he got one: "Yes, he gets an allowance... but he deserves a grounding!" All in jest over the epic 3OT game, of course! Cleary is from Newfoundland, so that's why all the Harbour Grace people were cheering! Chris Osgood's parents were there too, yay!

One of the players was on his cell phone, and the kids looked so cute! Later, Steph wanted to party, but I told her that Vivian didn't look like she was up for rowdy stuff - she looked so tired that it would have to be a sedate party! (we had watermelon too - no pineapple!) Guess I'm going to the funeral tomorrow, and then drop Big G off at home. That's fine since I need to get lasagna and stuff - I don't mind if it takes time! (But non-believing relatives?! Oh my...)

Just fielded a phone call for my brother, from a woman named Dancy. Hmm.... o_O

Looked up stuff on Rock 101 for someone (Lights Out classic radio show), and noticed they spelled Kim Mitchell's name wrong in the UPCOMING EVENTS section. (with an extra E!) *shakes head*
