All this talk about roid rage made me remember that I miss Mivi, and this fun little convo we had just before she left on vacation!

I titled my blog 'working for the weekend' because it makes me think of that Patrick Swayze/Chris Farley Chippendales skit on SNL from like 10 years ago, and it makes me chuckle.

My weekend (which started on Thursday since I took Friday off to recover from the MMV-Heyyyyys) in a nutshell:

- Thunderheist & Crystal Castles @ The Social: rounded up a solid crew of about fifteen friends to attend this monster jam. The house DJ played some amaaaazing old school tunes to warm us up before Thunderheist came out. I was so buzzy just anticipating Crystal Castles and dancing really hard that Thunderheist was a bit of a blur. When Crystal Castles took the stage people started having outright dance aneurysms (not only because of the constant strobe lights) and they didn't stop till they left. Incredible pics of the event taken by Kid With Camera (I don't need to tell you how ridiculously talented KWC is) are here. We capped the night off at The Drake, where they were serving alcohol till 4am (thanks Pride Week!). Actually that's a lie - I capped the night off watching infomercials about pilates and hip hop abs.

- Spent my day off on Friday at Canada's Wonderland by myself. It was the first day that Splashworks was open during the week this summer, and what better time to get over my anxiety over wearing a bathing suit in public than on an off-peak day before school lets out? I spent a few hours floating along the Lazy River, periodically requesting a push from a stranger when I inevitably got stuck in a 'dead end', splashed around in the wave pool, and otherwise spent the entire day with an inner tube tethered around my waist. After Wonderland I headed to Michelle's birthday party @ Montana's and then ate an obscene amount of greasy food @ Fran's. One of these days when I go to Fran's, Joe will actually be working! I always seem to miss his shift. Oh, and who knew Fran's had a fully stocked bar, including Red Bull + Vodka?!

- Spent Saturday strolling through the village for Pride Weekend (we must have JUST missed the Dyke March when we were there), FINALLY saw Nathalie after a hiatus of five or six months (visiting from Ottawa) and then lounged on my patio doing crossword puzzles till it was time to head out again for Stacie's birthday festivities. Participated in a language-off (French & German) before going to Hemingway's for the rest of the night.

- Sunday...had a rough and slow start to the day so I didn't show up to Joe's bocce ball tournament in High Park on time. Everyone was in full 'character' - wearing those braided sandals with black dress socks, short shorts, wife beaters, copious amounts of chest hair, crucifixes, hair rollers and sundresses. Every time Joe yelled out to his parents in typical Italian fashion, he had to remind them to play along in character. Participated in a few three-legged races and then threw a frisbee for a tireless Sheltie puppy until it was time to leave. I moved from one Italian-themed event to the next...Nick hosted an Italian potluck where an obscene amount of food was prepared (and consumed - there were almost no leftovers!). We had tomato & basil soup, grilled zucchini, baby greens, osso bucco, jumbo pasta shells stuffed with spinach and ricotta cheese, butternut squash risotto, and so much fresh bread that yeast was practically seeping out of my pores by the end of the night.

In unrelated news, I am anxiously clicking refresh to find out if one of my girl crushes is going to be at Much HQ in the very near future. If she is, I may erupt. Promise. To illustrate how exciting the news is, peep this convo I just had with Jonathan about it:

Jonathan Soja: she's coming?!
Kat: It's not confirmed yet tho
Jonathan Soja: :O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O
Jonathan Soja: SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Kat: dude i know!
Jonathan Soja: SHUT UP
Jonathan Soja: NOW
Jonathan Soja: I WILL DIE
Jonathan Soja: DIE DIE DIE
Kat: omg omg omg
Jonathan Soja: i'm gonna throw up
Kat: what will you do if you meet her?
Jonathan Soja: shit, piss, barf, cum, burp, and sneeze all at the same time.

Kat: Any birthday plans for you, tomorrow?
Northern Soul: Yeah...
Kat: I'm on high alert regarding my birthday right now. I sense that something is up.
Northern Soul: dun dun duuuunnn!!!
Kat: I'm tempted to put on my Nancy Drew cap and sniff it out.
Northern Soul: Definitely!
Northern Soul: So my stepdad...trying to buy me a wonderful gift for my birthday tomorrow goes and drops some serious coin on GREAT seats to a show tomorrow for him, my mom, my girl, and me...
Northern Soul: ...and can you GUESS what show he chose?!
Kat: Uh oh. Dad buying tickets can only turn out badly.
Kat: I'm guessing...
Kat: Well, I'm staring at a pic of Meat Loaf right now and I know he's on tour cause we just ran a contest, so for jokes I'll guess Meat Loaf.
Northern Soul: Wow......you ARE Nancy Drew!
Kat: LOL! Is it Meat Loaf? Yeah right!
Kat: Do you even like Meat Loaf????
Northern Soul: I.....HATE.....Meat Loaf!
Kat: OMG
Kat: That is the BEST. GIFT. EVER!
Kat: Best meaning worst, of course.
Northern Soul: I think I'm still in disbelief
Kat: Wow. WTMotherF???
Kat: "thanks dad"
Northern Soul: So tomorrow night I have to sit through the Meat....that is in Loaf form. Front row.
Northern Soul: Maybe I'll get hit with one of his huge bitch tits.

My definition of "basecamp douche" is pending over at Urban Dictionary:

cornwall86:  it's like simple addition versus Calculus
cornwall86:  you seem closer to the "2+2=4" rather than the "limit as x approaches infinity" equation
cornwall86:  :-)
kattekylling: my calculus skills are poor at best
kattekylling: what! does that mean
cornwall86:  you're easy to please
cornwall86:  not super complicated
cornwall86:  and you're closer to simple addition
cornwall86:  maybe a little BEDMAS or something but nothing too hardcore
cornwall86:  (you know what I mean by bedmas right?)
kattekylling: no clue
cornwall86:  brackets, exponent, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction
kattekylling: ???

Am I the only person who doesn't know/remember wtf BEDMAS is? Upon further inspection, apparently yes.

Kat: do you know what bedmas is?
Jonathan Soja: the math formula?
Kat: maybe. do you?
Jonathan Soja: brackets equations division multiplication addition subraction

Kat: BEDMAS
Kat: does it ring a bell?
Jonathan K: Of course
Jonathan K: I always BEDMAS
Kat: really? yeah right.
Jonathan K: Brackets Exponents Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction
Kat: why did i never learn that mnemonic?!
Jonathan K: I dunno, it was the only one out there!
Kat: i feel so left out
Jonathan K: You know it now
Jonathan K: Do you really want to do math anyhow?
Kat: true
Kat: it's wrong to know it

Kat: do you know what BEDMAS is?
Jeff: yes
Kat: what is it then?
Jeff: the steps for solving math equations. brackets, exponents, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction
Kat: wow. What am I, French?!

Kat: Can I interest you in learning the choreography to Thriller?
Jonathan Soja: Um, learn it? I already know it.

Kat: OK, so go watch this video of people doing the dance at a wedding.
Jonathan Soja: OMG
Jonathan Soja: I hope that wife knows she married a homo
Jonathan Soja: The groom is so gay
Kat: How do you know?
Jonathan Soja: His rhythm is just too good

I remember in 1983 when the original Thriller video was being premiered it was a HUGE deal. Like, in the news and everything. There were viewing parties. I was only 6 and I really liked Michael Jackson but I remember none of my friends' parents would let them watch the video because they heard it was going to be too scary. So I watched it in my rec room with my two cousins and my parents. *sigh* Oh, Mikey J.

I am SO learning this choreography!!!

First trip to Gandhi Cuisine - winner of Eye Weekly's "Best Roti In Toronto" 2006 Award. The rotis also came highly recommended to me by my friend Nate.

Kat: So I'm getting a mixed vegetable, medium spicy roti, right?
Nate: Don't get medium! You'll burn your face off most likely. Or die. Get medium/mild.

[to Neil]
Kat: Nate says not to get medium - you'll die.
Neil: I still want medium.
Neil: despite death.
Neil: I HATE when people don't let me order what I want!

[to Nate]
Kat: Neil says he's still going to get medium, despite your recommendation!
Nate: well i don't give a fuck, tell him to order full on "SPICY". i hate retards who when you offer your opinion and suggestion are like "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO MOM"
Nate: order the fuck "spicy" then see who's laughing
Nate: i hope you all choke on it and die

[the aftermath]
Kat: I'm back from Gandhi Cuisine. I was the only one who finished the entire thing!!
Nate: thoughts?
Nate: if you eat Gandhi's like you watch movies you probably went out of your way to destroy the experience
Kat: LOL!
Nate: did you eat it cold with a baby crying in the corner?
