7-2 loss with bad officiating! / Subway with Eric Ho

On the way to his house, Eric and I discussed weakness / lupus / surgery / next week / Citrus, Nathan, and Jeremy coming as well / drinks / no salt for him (they put it in everything, even cereal!) / numbers / testing. At his place, I said hi to his mom, and then settled in on the couch in the basement: that pool is still cool to me, man! Jeremy arrived soon after with leftover chips and spinach dip from Sunday, then Nathan and Citrus showed up. We talked about health issues, Hint of Lime chips, Pringles chips, the Terracotta Warriors from Chinatown, Coke Zero, two Chicago goals in 17 seconds, reading labels, Roberto Luongo getting pulled after six goals against ("save his Goals Against Average and his self-respect!"), the other playoff series, the "pay the refs to call many Vancouver penalties" conspiracy theory, the calls on phantom penalties ("how is THAT goalie interference?!"), the analysis of pre-emptive misconduct penalties, Bieksa and Stalberg, Citrus' job, the Royal Wedding, my memory, Jon sending Jeremy an empty text message, and diet / exercise / nutritionists.

Also conversed about McDonalds, bandwagon jumpers, jailbait / consent / LOLITA / cousin marriages, "the door with the crack" and other Nathan weird / random innuendo, walking out of the bathroom at the wrong time in the conversation, Ciel / BATTLESTAR GALACTICA / anime, our score / brawl predictions, the BAD officiating, Los Angeles and San Jose getting ten seconds shaved off the first period because they spent too much time discussing it (Jeremy and I noticed that a MINUTE was added on, which must have been a mistype), antennas, Christon being the head chef for Thursday (pizza works!), and more. Later, Eric wanted to know if I wanted Subway, as that's the only good thing he can eat; I just got Veggie Delight while he got Oven-Roasted Chicken. Of course I wanted him back at my place; it works if he pays for the dinner while I provide the water! He talked to Teunis about disabling updates, MSN and Facebook communication, programming, Fort St. John, the guestbook (he knows what to do!), eating, "cool" info, and more. When he left, Teunis and I discussed STARCRAFT / WARCRAFT "Stop touching me!" / WOW / beta testing / gum / frozen yogurt / in-game bugs / 4-20 / quests / Gollum / people actually getting violent on weed / exes / Dan Savage / war and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder / "Easter" dinner on May 2 / Nutella / vanilla / more.
