tater_mae Ok, so... last week wasn't the best ever.
Actually, Wednesday was kind of shitty. well, during the day. nighttime was better.
Wednesday started out with me waking up from a bad dream. It left me feeling uncomfortable. It wasn't really scary, but it was... well, it was a Criminal Minds related dream, and one of my favourite chars (Morgan, my HOT boyfriend) was the 'bad guy' - he was having a psychotic break from reality, and didn't know he was a killer or something.
so i woke up, and felt weird, so i tried to look nice, but then around 10AM, my zipper on my pants broke, so that was crappy. I had to wear my zip up sweater tugged below my fly the whole day, so it was a little awkward. Its kind of funny now that i think about it (it was kinda funny then too, but more annoying than anything), but still.
THEN, the president of my condo strata called me, on my cell phone, while i was at work, and was all, we need to get into your apartment because we think you might have a leak.
so my sis and i had to bail from work an hour early to see if our place was flooded, which thankfully it wasn't, but still. so that was kind of crappy. but then we hung out with Sarah and Nick, and played Rock Band Beatles, and i played on Hard, which is a BIG step up for me, and i still suck, but at least i'm challenging myself.
I had friday off, so i got to have a lie in, which was totally nice. got a call from the woman (aka![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skullycat ) asking me to to go the island to visit her, because she was lonely and her hubby was on call. so i had sushi with kieran (aka peanut) - even though i was SUPPOSED to have sushi with kyle, but he wasn't feeling well - and we had all you can eat, and it was DELICIOUS and EXACTLY what i wanted. then i raced off to visit with kepp0xy , which was short but sweet, as i was catching the 7pm ferry with Christina&Darin.
So we get to the ferry terminal an hour early, since Darin was paranoid about traffic, and we actually had a lot of fun in the car waiting to board the ferry, and then again ON the ferry doing a crossword (and other newspaper games. the scrabble game? got totally eff'd up. it was hilarious. go double dodeca word scores!)
We didn't get a lot of sleep that night, since we had Vodka Rockstars at about midnight.
OMFG. STUPID IDEA. IF YOU WANT TO SLEEP, DON'T DO THAT.
i got a few hours of sleep in, i think, but mostly i was in and out of sleep all night.
so saturday was ok. Darin made us breakfast (and by that i mean he warmed up frozen belgian waffles that Brendon - Karen's husband - sent over with us). Then all of us, baby Kaeda included, headed to Downtown Victoria, and we went on a Carriage Ride (Kaeda LOVES horses), and then we went to the mall for a bit and browsed a little, and then we had to race back because Darin&Christina wanted to catch the 5pm ferry home, and drop off Kaeda at her grandparent's place, as Karen and I were going out clubbing that night.
OMFG. CLUBBING IN VICTORIA IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CHEAP!!!!!! COVER WAS $5-$7 (we went to 2 clubs) AND DRINKS WERE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CHEAP (we bought 5 shots for less than $25)
I had a good time, but i was kind of exhausted. I probably should have taken a nap around 4 when Christina&Darin(&Kaeda) left, but Karen was having a tiny separation-anxiety-attack as her In-Laws have never had Kaeda overnight without Karen, so Karen needed a distraction and started to get ready for the Club A BILLION HOURS EARLY. and by a billion i mean like, 4 hours early. But whatever, we got ready, we had dinner, we pre-drank (wine with 7-up, and we shared the last Vodka Rockstar), and a couple of her friends showed up and pre-drank (Sam, who i met last time and i still adore, and Keith, who's kind of a jerk in a friendly way... kinda). So we went out, and danced, and had a good time. I made some new friends - some guy named Mike who I danced with because karen was pointing at me, so i thought he was ok, but really she was just trying to get rid of him. Whatever, we had one dance, and then went our separate ways. That was at the first club. The second club i made 2 friends - one guy who said i didn't look happy and that i should smile, but at that point i was kind of falling asleep at the table, as i was bopping in my chair, i was so tired. and my feet hurt because i was wearing Karen's shoes (which are hot, but not broken in at all, and just... not shoes to be standing in a long time. or to be worn for a long time). So i told him that i was just tired and i was happy and having a good time. so he smiled and was all, i was just making sure, you look like you should have a good time (or something like that) and then walked off. then some other guy came up to me a little while later - i guess he saw me bopping in my chair - and was all, you should be dancing out there (pointing to the dance floor) and i told him i couldn't, i was wearing inappropriate dance shoes, and he said there was no such thing, and i told him i was looking after the stuff (as i had a purse and 3 jackets in my arms) and he said that it would be find and he'd look after our seats (and he seemed genuine) but i told him i was very tired and was having a good time where i was (because i was, and really, if i had tried dancing i probably would have died), but we had a nice little chat. he was nice.
So when we left the club, the first guy i met - the one who said i didn't look happy - was outside yelling at the bouncers and he either said something really rude or he spat at them or something, because two bouncers had to hold another one back or something, and then a few minutes later, the cops showed up, and it looked like my new friend was getting arrested.
I looked at Karen and was all, how typical. my new friend is getting arrested.
Sam drove us home, but stopped at subway so Karen and I could get our BLT, so we got home, ate, washed our faces, watched maybe 30 mins of Empire Records, and went to bed (around 3am)
Around noon, we had brekkie (poached eggs with onions and milk), toast and little weenies), cleaned up the kitchen, and then her Father In Law brought Kaeda home and took me to the ferry, where i JUST caught the 3pm ferry home.
My sister picked me up, i had subway for dinner, watched GAMER, took a shower, then went to Games Night at Drew & Kyle's house. It was mucho Fun!! We played Balderdash (which i suck at, but i wasn't really playing to win, i was playing to have fun and be crazy, which i'm good at.) i can't bullshit with answers like that, so my theme of the night was 'a Lizard'. Then we played 'What' and again, most of my answers had something to do with Lizards.
All in all, i had a GREAT weekend, spent with GREAT people.
