Hungarian vegetables, new roommates, stretching on beds, puddles, and sticky substances

This thing restarted while I was out! Karen, Lincoln, Vivian, Harmony, and Dallas showed up in time for dinner. When Ryan (who comes from Calgary) was introduced to me, he thought I lived there, too! Well, Jeremy may have a double bed, but that isn't the case! Jon made a joke about how Ryan had yet ANOTHER rice cooker to leave behind after his stay at Jeremy's - Ray had left his behind, after all! I was surprised to learn that Ray and Peggy might move to Vancouver from Toronto, since Ray doesn't really like the city. Later, I noted that Jeremy didn't want to scare Ryan off because the Magic Bra box was turned around to the instructional side! We spent a pleasurable fifteen minutes or so reliving the entertainment that the item has brought us in just over a year. Jeremy could officially take possession of it, but then would have to give it to Christon the next day since their birthdays are only one day apart! (and Panties on Hoops is inextricably tied into the Magic Bra story, too...)

Karen, Lincoln, Vivian, Harmony, Dallas, Jeremy, Jon, Christon, Isabel, Jen, and I discussed BATTLEFIELD EARTH (Daniel says it's the worst movie ever!), Nathan's HOLY MO-FO being taken off Youtube because the Cartoon Network thinks it was "copyright infringement," Steph getting the townhouse, the last time we made gourmet mac and cheese (there was lots of salad that night!), apple wood smoked cheddar, the Hungarian vegetable dish, lots of cream / whipped cream / butter in the macaroni / cheese and soup, liquid smoke, and the furniture / warehouse. We also talked about interviews / applications / school, books, a "ghetto dinner" night, AUDITION, torture with piano wire, THE BIG LEBOWSKI, MULHOLLAND DRIVE, Jen approving of a pale ale, French movies, teaching, the dishwasher jets, Double Bastard beer, Skype / Twitter / their net worth, how Jeremy met his new roommate Ryan (through Jon H.), and other things.

I borrowed Jon's phone to call Eric to see about the hockey thing on Thursday, but had to say Jon would call him back later since the venue is now up in the air because Nathan's dad cancelled the cable. Makes sense, since he won't be at home for four months because he's in Hong Kong or somewhere! We could all just go to Phil's, haha. (I went into Jeremy's room to do this, and half-stretched out on the bed... why not, if I won't get scolded for it later like I did last time? Stupid EX!)

Jon and I independently verified a puddle of some sort on the bathroom floor - it COULD have been pee, or it might just have been water. We weren't taking any chances, so got plastic bags to put our wet socks in! I wasn't quite sure which bus to take on the way out, but at least I had people with me. Yep, it was the Canada Line stop at Yukon - good thing Dallas saw an Alma bus right after Jon told him to just wait for the next bus, since we only had to go back half a block REALLY quickly! Oh, Sunday schedules... we talked about my not really being TOO cold since it wasn't Regina at -45°C ("that's how to live!" Jon said), there not being such a thing as TMI with the Ngs, school, my birthday party, the River Rock casino being right next to a Canada Line station, the airport buses, Kelsey's wing night, theoretical loops, UBC, Dallas' mom looking after a kid, what she might do if there's snow in Toronto, and more on the way home.

I knew the 401 and 407 stopped right outside the last Canada Line station, so I took the opportunity to check the times since they had the schedules posted up. Had an inkling that the buses didn't come as often as they might have before the buses changed their routes a few weeks ago, y'see. Checking the schedule seemed to bear this supposition out, for sure. The 407 seems to come less often than before, and certainly less often than the 401. Very odd, but that fits with my empirical observations last Wednesday! Good times, haha. (except for my inadvertently grasping a sticky rail on my way out of the 401... EW!)
