So the Spaniards can DIVE to win the WORLD CUP against the Dutch...
When Eric picked me up this morning, he asked how the movie night was, so I told him. He then wondered whether Nathan had told me that the WOW raid didn't even happen - WHAT THE. YOU COULD HAVE JOINED US, AND I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HOME AT 1:45! As I thought, he had called Christon for the second half, but his new excuse involved doing Powerpoint for worship today. *sigh* Talked about confession / liturgy, writing skills, Mr. Creep, what time I got home / went to sleep (I'm sure he had more sleep than I did!), the World Cup party at Steph's, his being strange for turning his steering wheel after parking, and some other stuff. When I got to church, I noticed Mr. Creep sitting by himself... GOOD! Took my usual seat in the sanctuary (avoiding Auntie Ying in the process), accepted a bulletin from Uncle Peter, and talked to Citrus / Phil / Christon about last night and Hannah's wedding and an upcoming Shanghai / Beijing trip with Sam's family.
Talked to Emily, Nina, and Gerard about the Chinese zodiac - Nina was born in 2000, which makes her a DRAGON! I told them that I was also a DRAGON, and I even had a dragon SHIRT - but wearing it in hot weather would be a BAD idea since it was practically all black! Nathan and I were lazy during handshaking time again, but I did say hi to Deb and others. Steph (in orange for HOLLAND) was impressed that I was there early, but Eric had to lead worship - not much I could do! She reminded me about Dad's birthday dinner next Thursday; apparently, Dad says we could be eating out since it'll be only two days since Mom's final cataract surgery. I was pretty tired, so couldn't really concentrate on a whole lot - there was no coffee on offer when we ended! Went outside for a bit to talk to the little kids (Joshua / Keenan [DON'T BLOCK THE DOOR!] / Christian - whom I called Alex, his DAD'S name - my brain is fried!) and Chrystal.
Asked Chrystal if she wanted to meet up - this week or next is good for her. Just in case I go somewhere with Teunis as he's back again, I opted for this week. She's back to working full-time, and wants to take the Canada Line, so Richmond Centre works for her! Tuesday at 6:30 it IS! (we can have dinner and then maybe do something later before she has to get home) I'm excited! Auntie Lillian (Calla and Acer's mom) wanted to know if I was going to help Auntie Ying, so I demanded to know if she'd sent her down there to ask me! She said no, but it seemed like I helped Auntie Ying a lot. Meh, perhaps so!
Maxine also gave me some extra Sunday School material in the form of three books - of course, I forgot all about that this week! Speaking of Sunday School, I went upstairs (getting Eric to watch my stuff) to make my World Cup-related excuse to Auntie Ying (since I know she saw me earlier) / Jessie / Rachel's grandma. Saw Ramen, Shira, Ashley, Amanda, Esther, and some of the other kids in the room. I told them that I did NOT have the Sunday School material, which was a lie - it was downstairs in the fellowship hall, but I was too lazy to grab it. Should be fine, as they don't really talk to Maxine, haha! As I left the room posthaste, I thought I heard Auntie Ying calling me back, but I was done with what I wanted to do - and we had to LEAVE! (I'll figure it out later) Of course, this means I still have Sean and Conor's Bible / handbooks / Sunday School material, but they'll keep another week!
Once downstairs, I saw Eric trying to carry my stuff along with his guitar - my things may be heavy, but they are not a head or multiple heads as he likes to joke! Talked to Jeremy for a bit: Auto Tune, Double Rainbow, cheering for the Cup itself and not any particular country, and more. Had some chips while saying hi to Victoria / Joe / Helen C. / Nathaniel / Abby / Helen K. / Nicholas. Eric and I left, taking Geoffrey with us to Steph's. Once we came in the backyard window (having been let in by a car), we saw a whole bunch of people there, with others coming later: Randal, Jen, Jon, Harmony, Steph, Nate, Christon, Martin, Wesley, Darren, Denise, Brian, Connie, and three of Steph's other friends.
While watching the DIVING game, we discussed Phil's sermon today ("Stephen has to DIE already!" hahaha) / Panago pizza / beers / SLB / BBQ pork / "juice" / her guestbook / nursing beer (NOT nurses!) / memories / fireworks / burnt Sliders / Steph's bad cooking / STD jokes / making fun of the French / Snuggies. So much diving going on, man... most people were disappointed that Spain won! Geoffrey left after it went into overtime, so that meant I was free to tell Steph that Eric would NOT thank her if I had a third beer! As it was, I was cackling pretty much all the way home (which led to "DRUNK!"), hahaha. Poor Eric puts up with a lot, I suppose - but he IS used to it!
Discussed whether I should contact Dave again, and I tried explaining to Eric exactly why I didn't. Seriously, he COULD just be busy, but man. Status comments are fine, but NO WALL / FOLLOW-UP MESSAGE RESPONSES?! How am I supposed to know that the person's read it? (that's why I usually respond to anything people leave ME!) Now it's time to have a nap, if I can manage to have one without a mystery person from Washington calling me! (I expected the door to be unlocked - Eric thought maybe Teunis would slip the spare keys under the door after locking it - and it was! HA, I WIN AGAIN!)
