busy, busy

i was updating my calendar-slash-social diary this morning and there was so much stuff i’d done between leaving work on friday afternoon and returning this morning that it took me a good few minutes just to remember where i’d gone and what i’d done.
let’s see… friday evening was very full. i had dinner and watched some of ‘the office’ with christopher before going downtown to attend a girl’s night out (with: jen, jen, jen, mel, mel, col, gill, rose, kimli, kirsti and others i didn’t know). after that fun party broke up at fairly early hour, i decided that i’d check if meghan was at the pub, which she was, so i stopped in to have a drink and a chat with her on my way home (dante, the lackluster new year’s eve date, was there. it was the first time running into him since that night. he was all pouty that i’d never called him back, but he still asked me out to lunch. ohwell), which was good. i never get to see her any more unless i go to the pub.
saturday, i got up earlish and managed to do four loads of laundry before noon. then chris called all grumpy at printer problems and said he needed to get the hell outta dodge, so i picked him up, we went shopping for supplies and then spent the day vegging out watching more of ‘the office’ and eating yummy food. i drove him home at a practically decent hour because we both had to get up early sunday for…
the camera show! after an early start and a public transit commute, i was at my first-ever camera show and swap meet. it was AWESOME. i spent way too much money, but i got three new-to-me cameras (Olympus Pen EE-2 half-frame, Olympus XA rangefinder and a spectacular trashcam, Biauma B-1) and a bunch of cheap, expired film to put in them. afterwards, the gang all took off for commercial drive for a yummy, cheap lunch at a greek place. then we all went our separate ways for the day.
after hanging at christopher’s for a bit, we came back to my place to watch more of ‘the office’, then we took off to the awesome vietnamese place on west 10th for a very late dinner. after stuffing ourselves, we then went to marpole to meet up with jen after her shift. we three wandered around the very clean and brightly lit 24 hour porn store and then had some bubble tea (my first — it’s YUMMY!) and chatted until midnight, when i realized i had better ditch those two so i wasn’t a complete wreck today.
i drove them both and then myself home, where i promptly fell into a night-full of crazy dreams before my alarm started bleeping five hours later. ugh.
so, tonight i have to do all the stuff i didn’t get done on the weekend: aircare for the car, return and exchange some clothes i bought last week, clean the floors, do the dishes, buy some food for lunches. luckily, i start my vacation on thursday, so it’s a übershort work week for me. yay!
