Sep. 12th, 2005 09:28 amI miss England. British Airways is again running their $500 for airfare and 3 nights in London at the, um, lovely Royal National hotel. If we had the time and the money... Instead there's a chance we can throw together a weekend in Canada next month, maybe, it seems like it could be pretty cheap. Quebec City!!! I *heart* Quebec City. There are ponies and cobblestone streets, and I could practice my rusty, rusty French.
So on Friday we finally checked out Jake Ivory's, which was The.Best.Thing.Ever. One of the piano guys even bought us a drink for requesting the crappiest 80s songs ever. Iscared impressed Drew with my knowledge of most of the words to Paradise By The Dashboard Light. There was much drunkenness and singing. Apologies to J., A., and T. for my patented Money Freakout at the end of the evening. Sometimes, when I am reminded of the soul-crushing burden of debt I carry, I freak out. I should have waited until we got home, though. But I think the drunken singing was still worth it.
Spent the rest of the weekend lazing about, watching some really crappy and some really scary movies, and reading (I started Freakonomics yesterday and am almost done). Oh, and last night- out of curiosity, I watched The War At Home, which is on after the Simpsons and before Family Guy. Holy Crap. I thought Reunion was bad, but no, The War At Home is seriously the biggest slice of suck ever. I'm actually dumber for having wasted half an hour of my life with it. I don't know why I kept watching it after the first horrible couple of minutes, but I did, and I am sorry. American Dad seems to be redeeming itself, though.
