Thursday afternoon I arrived home from work with just enough time to get myself ready for the WPGA play. After the play, mum dropped us home and Colin and I headed into Richmond for some late-night, all you can eat Sushi. After that we returned home and watched a couple more episodes of Lost.
Friday I had a hair appointment in the morning, then spent the early afternoon doing laundry and watching the Olympics. I watched the opening ceremonies three times, but each time somehow missed the Canadians entering. Colin said they looked like a bunch of red and white penguins waddling in, in that monstrosity designed by the Bay.
Too bad the Bay now has the rights to outfit the Canadian Olympic Team, since Roots did a far superior job. Unfortunately, the Bay is a sponsor of the 2010 games, so we are stuck with them outfitting the Canadian Olympic team for at least another four years.
Later in the afternoon I met with Tina and we walked to Starbucks. Afterwards I went back to her place and she made me garlic prawns - I didn't get food poisoning :). Thalia met me at my place later that evening and we wandered up to Rogers and rented Elizabethtown. It was ok. Actually, I was enjoying it till the end - it had one of those endings which seems more like the beginning of another movie - I hate that.
Saturday morning was split between watching the Olympics and watching the police and Hazmat team across the road from my apartment. Someone's meth lab caught fire... You can live in the best parts of Vancouver or you can live in the worst parts of Vancouver, this sort of thing (like meth lab operations) can found anywhere in the city.
I joined Tina and Jen for lunch at the Jericho Tennis Club - it had been years since I had last been there. Tina had to steer me in the right direction, as I made a bee-line for the Yacht Club - if I go down to Point Grey Road it usually means I'm going to the RVYC for some reason or other - we humans are creatures of habit. Afterwards Tina ran a few errands and then we visited her mum at a craft fair. Then we headed into Richmond and wandered around Richmond Centre for a bit.
That night Colin and I saw the third movie on our Oscar list - Munich. This, in my opinion, is my favourite so far. After that we returned home and watched another episode of Lost.
Yesterday morning my mum and I went shopping - it was good shopping day, except for the fact I couldn't find a pair of khaki pants that fit me properly.
I spent Sunday evening with my family and picked up a copy of Andrew's recently completed screen play - from what I've read so far it is very intriguing, and I personally would like to see it made into a film.
Later that night, Colin and I watched yet another episode of Lost. We now only have one episode left to watch, then we will have completed the entire first season! I am not sure what I am going to do with myself between now and the time I will have to wait for season 2 to finish and be released on DVD.
The Lost ad that aired during the Super Bowl states it best- "Might as well face it you're addicted to Lost..." (to the tune of Robert Palmer's hit, Addicted to Love).
