"Berry juices are GOOD for the chicken!"
High-scoring words of the night so far:
AERIE (140 points) - against Shelley R.-B. [4W, 5W] {a good deficit-erasing word!}
EBONIES (256 points) - against Barbara J. [4W, 5W, hook off IMAGE for a plural]
Eric picked me up later than I thought, but it was okay since the car was warm - it was a contrast to outside! Talked about my new green spring-like top, changing clothes, whether I'd read any good drama this afternoon (NO!), and other stuff. When we got to Jeremy's, we said hi to Ray, and found Christon hard at work cooking three different chickens. There were a lot of strawberries around, and I talked to Raymond a bit about the child protection seminar. My brother hadn't really wanted to go, but he had to... Raymond just found that there was a lot of material on abuse and first-aid. I just saw the Awana first-aid kit yesterday, and haven't seen a general station yet!
Eric, Raymond, and I spent some anti-social time together after Christon called Jon to get him to buy cream: "Your definition of the word "soon" is interesting since you called us at 5 to say you'd be here soon! We figured you'd be having a beer!" Jeremy: "Maybe he is at the Whip since it's on the way, but why would he BUY it when he could drink it here with my beer cellar?!" Eric read the DANGEROUS BOOK FOR BOYS, I read one of Ray's books, and Raymond looked at specifics of some fund Jeremy is involved with. Jon and Nathan arrived in the midst of this, and we figured out that Jon was BUYING beer and not HAVING it! Various jokes were made about chicken and HOLES ("Christon started it!" "No, I merely knew what Nathan was thinking!"), and we discussed whether to pass on my pie - I ended up donating it to Ray and Jeremy.
Had Brie D'Alexis cheese, Asiago cheese, Maudite beer, Trappist Rochefort ale, barley wine, and Rasputin beer with sourdough bread, mashed potatoes, beets, apple-stuffed chicken, berry-stuffed chicken, and regular chicken. Laughed over various stag ideas, including Chinese Eric's idea of a Booze Night at the Broadway Church! Nathan hasn't talked to him for about a month, since that guy is pretty busy - I didn't know he could have a month's vacation when he's here for Jon's wedding! Discussed canning / freezing / City Hall gardens, Vivian's poo calendar gift (red poo, white poo, how I need to show it to Jeremy, NON-REAL pictures not selling...), Germans possibly being into RateMyPoo.com, backwards CKNW listeners, parking on the grassy strip at church, the parkade rarely (if ever) being FULL. Also talked about good rental properties, charismatic churches, speaking in tongues, spotting the charismatics at Missions Fest because they're way too happy, joke abbreviations for AIG, finances, the economy, brewer's yeast, yeast in beer, comparing store prices, how Britney Spears shouldn't be allowed to say anything, the David Crowder Band, leading from the old hymnbooks, Rogers honey granola which people would actually want to eat, long brown grain rice, the Google Labs people being allowed to work on self-directed projects for a set number of hours a week, and other things.
Jon dared to discuss the potential effects of whole-wheat pasta / fiber / Metamucil on me in Raymond's presence... what a weird ugfart! [I bugged him about that later on the way home] Then we laughed over the Magic Bra: too bad Johnny wasn't there! The thing's been well worth it in entertainment value ALONE! (Jen's IDEA... OH YEAH!) It might not be worth it if it was at Eric's house, because of various factors! (Jeremy's dad has seen the box, oops) Jeremy was actually trying to be a voice of reason on the night they got the thing, to no avail!
Later, Nathan started shooting some VERY random video for Harmony's birthday. Christon observed that the video would need some SERIOUS editing, especially the first half when almost all he shot was FLOOR! He shot the November-December 2007 tea calendar, as well as the numbers 1-30 being counted in English / French / Spanish / German / Cantonese / Mandarin. I elected to stay out of the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" round-singing since I wouldn't sound too good, heh. The video included random shots of the Magic Bra box (Nathan was one step ahead of me in that department), the CO2 tank for Jeremy's homebrew, the back inside covers of the DANGEROUS BOOK FOR BOYS, everyone there, and Nathan's random "narration." The Daniel Johnston music went well with it, even if it was made by a very disturbed individual brought up in a Christian home! (Nathan: "This is the Great Wall of China!" Background music: "SATAN!!!")
I looked at the "grammar" section of the DANGEROUS BOOK FOR BOYS, and almost fell asleep - Eric thought I'd be sleeping soon. FOOD / BEER COMA, dude! At least Christon can tell his dad that the chicken wasn't a disaster even if nobody else had really done that before with (out-of-season) berries! The glum prediction he got: "It'll be a DISASTER!" He had to leave earlier because his parents didn't want him to be out late, and didn't think the "I've been HIDING behind all the trinkets here at the house all night, really!" excuse would work since he's been out a lot lately. Ah, I don't miss that part of living at home!
Raymond left earlier than the rest of us after receiving a phone call from (I assume) home. We looked at various BBC show parody videos - CONNECTIONS / LOOKING AROUND YOU. I can definitely learn things from Jeremy, which is good... so much the parallel of my experience with a certain other person, haha. Discussed Sunrise Service, Easter's exact date this year (April 12), Phil giving up BATTLESTAR GALACTICA for Lent, THE WATCHMEN, not spoiling things for Eric, karaoke, Jeremy getting THE GAMBLER / AMAZING GRACE / another song all melded together in his head, AMAZING GRACE being sung to the tune of SCARED by the Tragically Hip (I learned about it in August 2001) / and other things too. It was definitely a good time out, haha!
Poo nugget for Monday, Mar. 23: Gummy Poo - The explosion of sorbitol-containing products on the market has led to the recognition of a new diarrheal syndrome. Used as an artificial sweetener in products such as candy / gum / ice cream, sorbitol draws large quantities of water into the intestine, and can result in torrential diarrhea. Recognition of this side effect has led physicians to utilize sorbitol as a laxative for their patients with constipation.
