Hey Hey! Another post! This one will feature LOTS of pictures! WOW!

So, Friday was pretty fun. It all started when my mom called and told me that my Uncle Darrell from Alberta was coming to my house. So I got ready and such, and then They showed up with my Aunt and my 3 cousins. Danielle showed up, and then we all headed downtown to check out the tall ships. We didn't end up getting too far, mostly because we got sidetracked by long lines for lunch and watching Squid do some mad drumming. They were really good. If you didn't see them, shame on you, you bastard. Anyway, after that, Danielle dropped me home and I waited for the Mackoids to come over and jam, which we did very little of. We then headed to Gottigen to do our show. It was alright... I didn't like the bands that were playing or anything, but what ev's. We played an "ok at best" set, but I still had fun. And I have pictures of the show thanks to Danielle and Jess. Woop Woop. But there's also some shots from the afternoon. The extra kid with my cousins in the first one is my uncles cousins kid. Second cousint.















And that is Friday.

On Saturday, I hung out with Danielle in the afternoon, which is always awesome. It wasn't fun that she had to work, causing her to have to leave around 5. Damn. Squeak. Around 5:30, Shrew came to get me and we headed out to the mall to get BBQ and BBShrew supplies (see Buns and Beer). We ended up getting right ripped on Bobby's deck all evening. I wanted to go downtown to see Sean on his B-day, but that didn't happen. GAY! As the evening got late and Chris got more and more hammered, he busted out his new Gui. I took some photos of that...





Then Paul randomly showed up and attacked Chris, which resulted in some fighting...





Then things got out of hand. You'll see why...











By the time this had all happened, Mike D had already left and I was well into the 10-12 beer range. We headed into the basement to chill and watch SNL. It wasn't too bad. Bobby passed out, and Omar eventually headed into Halifax. Paul, Chuck, Jess, and myself just chilled and watched the show. I finished my 14th beer and called it a night around 2:30... Paul and I caught a cab home, because I was too tired/jimmied. What a good night. More pictures follow...





















My brother and His girlfriend came down on Saturday night, but I got to see them on Sunday. So most of the Afternoon was spent hanging out with my family and Danielle. We had fun, and then my Uncle Derrick came down, which was awesome. We hung out some more and then headed downtown to check out some more of those hot hot tall ships. Danielle headed home before we left, but came out a little later, which was awesome. I had a few beers with my family and then went to check out the ships with Danielle. We then spent a while waiting for the Fireworks, which were really great. I was surprised. I bet the fact that the tall ships are around had something to do with that one. Pictures follow....











































That covers Sunday. And that leaves...

Monday. Monday was awesome. As the current trend has gone, Danielle came over in the afternoon, thinking she'd have to leave around 5. But instead, she ended up staying over for pretty much most of the day, which was really good. We had a BBQ with all my currently visiting family, which was lots of fun. The afternoon was pretty funny when my mom was trying to get me and my siblings together for a picture. Tim was being really retarded and kept making everyone laugh. He finally make a really retarded joke and left everyone (well, in my family) in tears. It took us about 15 min to get one picture taken (thanks Danielle). Here are the shots that were attempted...











Yeah. It was pretty funny. Here's some more pics of before the rest of the people showed up...







Of course, when my cousins showed up, I HAD to show them the drums. They were playing for quite a while... when one of my cousins picked up the sticks, he clicked them together and yelled "1,2,3,4!" REALLY loudly and started playing. I almost died laughing.











After all that jazz, Danielle and I went to see "The Village". I was surprised that it was actually not as suspense based as it was advertised. I really enjoyed it though, and what was really great was that it didn't have as many holes in the story as "Unbreakable" or "Signs" did.

After we got back from the movie, my Uncle Derrick read a few pages from "Green Eggs and Ham" in his Jimmy Stuart voice. It was really funny. Danielle left around 12, and soon the rest of the family started to depart. My uncle went through some of his old stuff and he pulled out some gems like these...







That's right... Bruce Willis.

Today, I'm going to work from 5 until undefined. I have to print 2500 bubbles shirts. How exciting. That ends my blog to end all blogs. This took me about 2 hours to pull together. I guess I'm done.
GFY,
Tony I

Friday, July 30, 2004

Wow. I haven't updated in a really long time. Like REALLY long. I'll just give you the rundown of the weekend/week. I suppose this is alright cause this is going to be a double-post weekend. Lots of pictures. Lots. I'll get into that later. Did I mention that there's none today? Well, it's true.

So, I'll start with Friday of last week. Crossgary (don't know how to spell that one) had a HUGE party at his house. It was pretty crazy! I had a good idea who pretty much everyone there was. There was a keg there, which was a grand idea. The mackoids played a set in the basement. This was also pretty fun, but it would have been way better if we had of played outside instead. FUCKING RAIN! I caught up with Cartmill, whom I hadn't seen in a while. Good guy. Then things kinda went to shit when paul got arrested. I think he should REALLY file a complaint. To sum it up... Good party.

Saturday afternoon was spent with Danielle because she had to work in the evening. As usual, it was a good time. After she went to work, I drove around with Paul and his brother. We headed over to Pauls older brothers place to chill and watch some Samurai Jack. That tv show is CLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN. After that, we headed to Shrews. When we got there, everyone was pretty much passed out. So we hung out and shimmied. We booked around 2, which concluded the evening.

Sunday was fun. Danielle and I went to see Napoleon Dynomite. If you haven't seen the movie, you HAVE to go. It's really funny. It's a little weak in the plot department, but it was so funny it didn't really matter that much. I won't even go into the droves of quotes that that movie has. GO!
After that, I went home and then to church. After church, I hung out with Danielle some more. It was a really good day. Oh yeah.

Monday. Work. Then Danielle and I rented The Last Samurai. The movie was really good. The story was solid, the acting was really good, and, most importantly, there was some serious samurai/ninja action. CLEEEEEAN. I ended up getting a pretty shitty headache, so I had to go home around 11.

Tuesday. Work. While waiting for the bus, Mike D and ID drove by and picked Omar and I up. They drove us to Mike's place, where Omar and I walked to brewsters to get supper/jimmied and play pool. We did just that, with Chris, Chuck, Mike and Paul. It was a good time. Danielle dropped by my house for a random 10 min visit on her way home, which was great.

Wednesday. Tired. Work. After work, I hung out with Danielle. We went to select sounds and then we went to see McHomoface at her place of employment. After all that visiting action, we went to Musicworld. I purchased The Queen Is Dead by the Smiths. I had it on my computer for quite a while, but it was on sale so I bought it. Good CD.

Thursday. Exhausted. After work, I visited Danielle at her workplace. Bobby eventually came by and we chilled for a bit longer. There was sword fighting, making fun of Eminem, and of course, calling ralphs place. Good times. After all that, Chuck, Chris, and myself went to Sidelines for some HOT karaoke with Cory from the Lampshades. I eventually got up and gave a jimmied rendiditon of "Hey Ya", but I wasn't alone; I had Chuck, Chris, and Cory as my "Love Hate-ah's". This made for a good time. Chuck did "Good Vibrations" with me for the harms. It was a butcher. Did I mention that my mom was there? She was. It made for much hilarity.

So I guess that catches you up with me for now. The Mackoids are playing a show tonight. I'm too lazy to post the deets, so go to shrewsays and check out the kick ass poster. COME TO THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GFY,
Tony I
