Night Market 2009 with lamb skewers / Dutch Ovens
The Night Market was pretty fun - Nathan and the crew picked me up at 8:45, which was when I was expecting them. Gave Jon and Harmony their "guestbook," which Harmony thanked me for after they tried deciphering what the stickers said on the front - the whiteout was pretty readable, heh. I said that they might as well have another party sometime, and Jon said that maybe they should just for Shally - she'd heard about it, haha. Listened to Jon discuss blackberry picking and the wedding with Mom on the phone, too. Nathan insisted on paying to access the back parking lot behind the market - I wasn't objecting, haha.
Walked around, discovered THE RONIN (knives and pretty swords!), spotted the Panties On Hoops stall (they had the UN-BRA this year), and took advantage of the $1 special right after 10:30. Discussed "hurricane potato fries," Christon, and the CNE. Shared dragon's beard candy / halal lamb skewers / lamb, beef, and chicken skewers / curry fish balls / egg balls, and more. Nathan saw the DVD shop, and eventually got only one movie about the Rape of Nanking. We made fun of the weird English on the DVD synopses! He also got an iPhone cover, and he had to haggle - Dallas told us about his own haggling, and that was pretty good! One guy was screaming that he had bubble tea - but it wasn't on special!
Critiqued the dancing on stage (one dancer was too close to another), talked about my birthday (Dallas could make it even if he's studying - MAYBE), Nathan's going to the UK, curry and ratatouille for their dinner, and Nate eating too much Korean food yesterday. It was kinda disturbing that Nathan wanted to lick an Obama T-shirt, but the guys found a perfect complement to their hypothetical free jazz booth - a stall that sold shirts with microphones inside and psychedelic designs on the front! Jon says he'd sell durian or stinky tofu if he had a booth at the market... we loved the random free box of Kleenex that Nathan got for parking in the back lot, and the sponsorship of said back lot by Pho 99! (a sign was advertising "40% Real Shrimp" in their shrimp concoctions)
The police were around, which fact we noted after we saw a booth openly advertising iPhone hacks and similar things for $5! As soon as the market closed, they were ensuring that nobody actually sold anything. Yes, we were just waiting for our lamb skewers... and we got out of the way of the trucks! I got home at 11:50 or so, which wasn't too bad. Good times, again!
Poo nugget for Monday, August 31: Dutch Oven - Humans are known for flatulence during sleep, largely due to the relaxed state of body muscles (including the anal sphincter), which results in the average person farting about ten to twenty times during any given night. When someone who is lying awake in bed farts under the sheets, then pulls the sheets over the head of their unsuspecting partner, it is called giving him or her a "Dutch Oven."
