Just had a super awesome week-end.. andf to think I still have one more day off!
Now my birthday is OFFICIALLY over, I'm saying that becasue I got my last gift last night. It was that my two closest friends came down to good ol' Two-Mountains to spend the night. Anita and Marnie braved the train ride up here and we had a great time.. well at least I know I did!!! It was strange at first to have them here. I always see them in town and stuff and no one really comes over to my place so it was like they were outta place or something...strange.
After I gave them the tour of the house we headed up to the store for munchies and beer....the essentials. We came back and drank. Yes I drank.. more than I thought I was. I was thinkin gI was only going top be drinking 1-2 Bomerangs but as it turned out I think I had 3 and a glass....felt good, real good.
Anways we talked all night. My mum even stayed with us ands we all just sat around the kitchen table and chatted. It was fun becasue even though it was my mum, we were all chatting like she was part of the gang. I'm not saying this in a bad way..infact I'm saying it in a very good way....It just goes to prove even more so thaty me and my mum are great friuends. She really loves Marnie and Anita. She thinks they are really funny, smart, interesting people and had lots of fun talking with them. And I think Anita and Marnie enjoyed all my mum's stories about living downtown and meeting all sorts of interesting people.... At least the faked it really good.
We snacked constantly from about seven until midnight, if not later. We ate veggies and dips, pop-corn, 3-D doritors, sunchips, pickle chips, ring-o-lo's, you name it, we ate it! We were suposed to have chocolate fondu but by the time we though of it, we were all too into our drinking to start eating desserts...a wise decision I think. We watch cable TV and a movie and really just chatted and talked girl stuff.
This morning I woke to find Marnie watching TV and eating the reast of her ring-o-lo's...Keep in mind it was about nine-thirty... Anyways, my mum was sweet enought to make us a delicious breakfast of eggs benedict, lots of coffee and lots of toast, soooo yummy! We then ventured out to go for a little toour of Two-Mountains. we went down to the "beach" and looked around at all the houses and ended up goin to a garage sale where we saw 5 amazing white 70's swivel chairs that could easily sell downtown for $500.00, but this lady was selling htem all for $20.00! But someone had just bought them about five minuted before we got there....But Marnie found a few things and so did Aniter... So then it was lunchtime and where better to eat then at Two-Mountains finest dinner? That's right "The Poulet Dore". Aniter had the much talked about Souvlaki pita with fries, Marnie satisfied her craving for fish with the finsh n' chip platter and I had a good ol' poutine...All very delicious.....
After lunch we were feeling very sunday-ish (meaning tired and lazy) and it was getting late so we went on a short garage sale hun by car with mum where Aniter found another treasure: an awesome stell desk for ten dollars. We then headed off to Cote-Vetu metro which is only a short drive away and Anita and Marnie went home, Anita carrying her new desk in her (now sore) arms.....
I had such a nice time and I am really happy the both came down. I realize it's not easy to get down here, but it made me so happy that they did. I really am lucky to have friends like them...And they even said they'd come back again soon....
But now it's tioe to take a nice long hot shower (after I remove the plunger from it.....Anita) and cuddle into my jammies and play Sim City for 12 hours and I know I;m gonna sleep well tonight, no work tomorrow!!!
