GOGOGOGOIT'SSEPTEMBERANDIT'STIMETOGO!!

.... Or, so I've been told.

Amazing how one month can spin your life around. Hell, it's amazing how one WEEKEND could have that effect on you. I'm scrambling to keep track of what all I've been up to which is kind of a first (I know, sad to admit, but epically true). 

Shall we take stock?:

• Friday, Sept. 4/09: Attended the "LOLWTFBBQ" event. Drank a lot, played endless rounds of Things... (Sample Moffatt answers: Q: Things... you wouldn't find in the dictionary. A: Recipes. Q: Things... that hurt your back. A: Large Stones) -- ate a veggie burger, ate ice cream cake, witnessed a knife break in said ice cream cake, drank some more, played Things... some more, conked out on a sofa in the wee hours of the morning.
• Saturday, Sept. 5/09: Went to My Advocate's home for a ladies night/Torchwood gathering. Helped invent a Torchwood drinking game (which I really ought to share in a later post now that I think of it...) Got down to some good ol' gossip, psyched myself out of The Talk with the ladies. 
• Sunday, Sept. 6/09: Went to the Ex with a bunch of friends. Shopped at the International pavilion, won at a water gun game, ate tons at the Food Building, witnessed the air show from ground level, witnessed Elvis Stojko's ice skating/acrobatic tribute to random films (including Kill Bill and Slumdog Millionaire, if you can imagine it), learned via the CNE archives that just about every building on the grounds has burnt down at least once, and so much more!
• Tuesday, Sept. 8/09: Watched Gamer with Chantal and headed out for some sushi. Found out that ZOE BELL HAS A CAMEO IN GAMER! Granted, it's quick... and it ends with her head exploding... BUT STILL! ZOE BELL! Oh, and P.S. - Chantal has Gerard Butler in her Harem, right? So this marks the first film we've seen where a member of my Harem and a member of her's have kicked ass together. Oh yeah.

It all feels entirely full throttle if you ask me, especially since I've come off a rather slow summer. And, on Saturday, I'm heading out to visit with O'Neill and Mr. Lee to celebrate their first week back at school and their move back to "Chateau Surrey."

No rest for the wicked, indeed.
