The Catch-up...

Hey yaars!

The quick catch up from the last few days is as follows. Saturday was spent chilling at home until late afternoon, were a Scarborough plan was made by my good freinds J-Roc and C Dogg to chill. Of course the second my moms got word of it I could sense her selecting which lecture I was to receive later on in the night. So I leave at around 7:30, to pick up the buddies from (a) Kennedy Station, and (b) at a main intersection near the other buddies' home. Of COURSE something was bound to go wrong!

I wait at Kennedy for about 10 minutes to get a phone call from J-Roc asking where I was. I conveniently forgot to mention to my buddy that I would pick him up from Kennedy (I said I could, but never committed!). So of course I go on to pick up Cedric, at a Petro Canada at Victoria Park and York Mills. From previous drives I've always found that Ellesmere turns into York MIlls, so of course when I see Victoria Park while travelling on Ellesmere, and find a Petro Canada, I park there and look for him. He's nowhere to be found! I run around the nearby Rogers Video, convenience store, and even dry cleaners, in the even he's there. No dice. I finally get a ring from him asking where I am! Of course then we both realize that I'm waiting just one block south from where he is, leading to me running to get him. In the meantime I get ringed by Jamie asking where I am! During all this it is POURING, with my windshield wipers at full blast! Thank God I found them!

So when we get into Astor's, we see how damn busy it is, and decide to check somewhere else out. The look on Cedric's face when exposed to rain is classic. It's almost like he was being hit by drops of sulfuric acid! We quickly decide on Jamie's recommendation to hit Boston Pizza. Of course getting IN there took about 5 minutes as there was no real driveway to get in!

Surprisingly I was impressed by the service there. The waitress was very good to continuously check up to make sure things were ok. And my food (Boston Lasagna) was pretty good. I suppose it was mainly fun times that made it enjoyable. I love the jokes that go around with these guys!

So we decide to jet out around 12:30-ish, with yours truly reaching home around 1 to a frantically p*ssed moms! I proceded to get a 15 minute dress-down for anything and everything. With the most vile things coming from her mouth, I had to bite my tongue and resist, as I know that speaking back during a lecture is only asking for more! Right when I think it's done, I go to my room to watch some Entourage, at which point my punk brother yells from his room "Turn it down!" to illicit some more words of scorn from the moms! I thought I was in a sh*hole again!

Thank goodness my mom's best friend showed up today, hence she's in better spirits! Let's hope this continues for a bit!

Well that's it for now, leftover biryani awaits me!
