Chicken necks?
So. We flew in Tuesday and got completely messed up. We watched TAI and were disappointed in their performance. I'm sorry you're such an enormous cockface, William.
He looked about 3 days old.
We met the usual type of randoms and then came back to the apartment and tweaked for eight and a half years.
I might be drunk right now. Whatevs, it's evening somewhere in the world and I'm on <I>vacation<i>. Yeah, I tried drunk html.
Tonight is cobra, ftsk, and an afterparty at republic? Je ne sais pas. Time for a smoke and picking up more mix. Vahdka lemonade, please and thank you.
Remember, you're only as big as your imagination. So continue to box yourself in while I wander the plains of africa and hunt big game for sport.
Oh, one more thing: I might also be an asshole. SURPRISE!

Brief but sweet
1. Finishing twilight saga in less than a week.
2. Vancouver in 24-ish hours.
3. Excellent times.
4. Tying the knot not knowing how to not go.

Wow. The new Macbooks? Totally an unpopular opinion, but I think they look so ugly. I was a really big fan of the white plastic look. There's a reason I haven't invested in an iMac and it's definitely because I don't like the aluminum look. It's the same reason I haven't replaced my iPod.
Fail, Apple.
Fail, Apple.
In other, awesome news:
- I'm addicted to Aparment Therapy
- I voted!
- I took the weekend off and I feel better for it!
- I had an awesome interview last night at the bookstore and apparently got a killer reference from Brandy this morning.
- I get to quite at the theatre, because they're bigger d-bags than [insert name of person you feel is a large d-bag]
- Cobra Starship and Academy Is... are coming up next week and they're never not fun. I suppose I should get on listening to Fast Times.
Yes, things are shaping up to be pretty good.

The hair!
So. Joe, not injured in the van accident. Has a fro.
Ian, not injured in the van accident. Has a fro.
Ray, not dead (yet). Has a fro.
Max, still alive despite not knowing Ryan J. Has a fro.
Travis, knee injured. Cut off fro two days prior to injury.
Adam, bottle to the face. Fro cut off to dead ferret (still mildly protective?), then changed to short hair two weeks before bottling incident.
Requires further research. Will write groundbreaking paper on the insular effects of the afro.

My life has become an interesting pop song...
But no one is singing along. Perhaps that's because I haven't told anyone the melody.
This past week has been non-stop go go go. I worked Monday night and because we dicked around there, we didn't get out of the theatre until 2 a.m. Yay for working longer than you paid yourself for!
Tuesday through Thursday I volunteered at the film festival. Since last night was my last night at the film festival, Davis decided we were going to drink rum all night while working. This wasn't particularly difficult for me as my job was to scan in prepurchased tickets and download film box office control codes. He, however, was working in booth, threading projectors that are as old as Alabama. Between him, me, and another guy named Chad, we finished off half a 26 of white rum.
Apparently that wasn't enough for us. No, we had to go consume more alcoholic beverages at a place called Bottlescrew Bill's. They're famous for Around The World In Eighty Beers. If you finish all eighty beers in a year, you get a plaque with your name on it. A boy from my office finished them in a matter of two months. It was kind of awesome. Anyway, last night we slammed back beer, shots consisting of Pear, Creme de Menthe, and Sambuca, as well as Sour Jacks at the end of the night and vodka slimes. This still was not enough for us! We went back to Davis' friend's place and continued to drink vodka, rum, and something called Wild Turkey, which Davis made exceptionally strong and I didn't finish. He took one sip at the end of the night and said "I am so damn proud of you for even making it halfway through that cup, Mindy."
We stumbled out of there just after 3 a.m., two drinks and a whole lot of Michael Jackson later. Funnily enough, when we left the theatre to buy the original rum, Davis told me about a party where he and Clements both slept with girls from our theatre and he said he did not picture the evening ending like that. As we were walking to the hotel to get a cab, we talked about how we definitely didn't see this evening coming. And then we decided to hang out more.
I proceeded to cab it home and pour myself into bed around 4 a.m. and then wake up at 6:30 a.m. to get ready for work. If I pushed getting out of bed to 6:50 a.m., well, that's between me and my blankets.

Air Canada Vs. West Jet
Little known fact: I prefer Air Canada to West Jet. I don't like the pep and perk when I'm travelling. I feel and look like crap, so should you. Okay, the honest reason? I think their seats are more comfortable and I like the flights they offer better. If West Jet were more willing to work with my travel schedule, I'd be down. Also, I'm an Aeroplan member, so I get points from them.
So. Why does the title of my blog today seem like they're duking it out for my love? Well, it's been in the news that the price of oil has been going down and that's great for travellers. In theory it should mean Air Canada is getting rid of the fuel surcharges. Not the case.
Today I had two emails in my inbox, one from Air Canada and one from West Jet. I opened Air Canada's first and was surprised to learn that they had decided to add the fuel surcharge to flight prices. Not a bad idea, I thought, it'll save people the surprise of seeing it among the taxes and wondering why the price of a flight is so high.
I opened my next email and it said that West Jet was entirely doing away with the fuel surcharge now that the price of gas is down.
Hmm. This seemed fairly curious to me. Why would one airline decide to put it in the price of their tickets while another one choose to do away with it entirely? It doesn't make sense at all! Oh well, here's to hoping Air Canada comes to their senses soon.

Remember that time that I would only smoke marlboros?
Me either. This past night was a gong-show. I wish I could accurately represent what happened? But in order:
Me either. This past night was a gong-show. I wish I could accurately represent what happened? But in order:
1. Renaldo, giving us some Mean Girls. Madge being straight-up 50s.
2. Not getting enough drinks but being danced all up on right away.
3. Having two gays to rescue you instead of just one.
4. Chugging coolers.
5. Hot wrist-bandana guy being too hot for real life.
6. Meeting a pornstar and not realizing he was a pornstar until Landon recognized from pornographic material he has studied.
7. Rosalie and Alex coming to an afterparty with us.
8. Our own afterparty being better than anything else we could have done.
9. Almost getting killed by group of slightly homophobic people who don't take too kindly to being flipped off. No, actually.
10. Underwear party with painting, uninvited upstairs guests entering in the most unusual way ever, and a group bath.
11. Our paintings including peppercorns and bandages.
12. The most awkward morning after this side of Mary finding out she was pregnant with Jesus.
13. Random gay men being perfectly awesome to dance with.
14. Short gay men running rampant!
15. Go-Go Dancers!
16. Someone totally fucking calling Piece of Me 8 seconds before it played.
17. Alex passing out on the couch and us having to check to make sure he was alive and ensuring he was in the proper vomiting position.
18. Nerdy straight boys? No.
19. Once again making out with a gay boy.
20. Mixing champagne, vodka, rockstar for the cocktail of doom.
21. Drinking a silo, van, and bucket of alcohol.
22. Spoon-dancing? Something involving spoons over our nipples and Landon grabbing my breasts for no apparent reason.
23. Drinking while watching The Gods Must Be Crazy and thinking it was a documentary.
24. The bathroom being the best fucking seat in the house.
25. Corporate discussions on the balcony.
And now, I think I want to go smoke with Landon, my new BFF from last night. He and I might actually be the same person. We're trying to piece together the evening and all of us have different recollections of everything but something none of us can figure out is whether or not we were wearing pants when the guy scaled the wall, Spiderman-style.
