Bread


I love bread. I love muffins and bagels and cakes and pastries. I love them all so much that I apparently dropped $300 at Cobs the other day (as per my most recent Mastercard statement... and I thought the 1-900 charges were outrageous!!). I mean, go big or go home, right? And make sure your purchase is a nice, round number. Definitely. I guess I must be a serious drug addict too, since I'd have to be pretty messed up mentally not to remember dropping that kind of dough on bread. Forgive the pun. Boy, I can't wait until my next drug enduced stupor, maybe I'll buy $200 worth of jam and butter. Maybe $100 worth of butter knives. Spectacular!
If anyone sees a really happy, doughy person wandering around Vancouver with flour all over their face and more baguettes than one would consider necessary, please call me.

Godzilla

Michael is perplexed that I have never seen Godzilla. I can hear it in the background; it sounds like someone is trying to breed an elephant with a pig.
In other news, Mahony's was good. Lively crowd, very good food, average drink prices and live music. Some pre-med students were hanging out there (at least that's what the hot hackey-sack guy said he was when he felt me up enroute to the washroom... I was three sheets to the wind - he could've said he was a horticulture student and it would've been all good).
I had the curried chicken, even though Bush says when you do that the terrorists win.

Friday night

Ah, Friday nights at the gym. It's been a while. Nice to see some things never change; the young and buff still try and get once last invigorating workout in before going out drinking. This, while I wax apoplectic on the eliptical machine, praying I raised my blood sugar levels adequately with the ice cream I guzzled before shlepping over to the gym.
I should talk. Michael and I are going to try a new joint at UBC tonight: Mahony's Irish pub. My grandmother says it's nice and I'll take her word, given that she's been to Lumiere and West, whereas I get taken to, oh, the Cheshire. Good times.

In the beginning

here i am, in all my glory.
