After MORE COFFEE TIME and SHOWER TIME, I went out at 4:45 on a 401 to get to the Discord get-together at the Rio Brazilian Steakhouse on Denman. All I had to do was get off at Yaletown (where the elevator is STILL not working!), go to the 6 stop which is very close by, and stay on there when it turned into a 5 and went to Denman / Pendrell... easy! It turns out that it was just me and Ben, which meant that I had to carry on a bit of the conversation, but I'm not socially awkward.

We talked about chicken, lamb, beef brisket, banana balls, cheese sticks, chicken bacon, rump, sirloin steak, it being easy to overeat since the steak came in slices off swords, getting searched at the airport with X-rays, bullet shells, double standards for some people in the server, people drinking a LOT there, random spontaneous meetups, some server people being flakes, recycling trucks, waterparks, the extravagant salad bar, and more. I decided to try "saving time" by going to the Vancouver City Centre London Drugs, but I can never figure out the layout and can never find anything there. Also ran into an annoying bike rider who decided to get his crap together RIGHT AFTER EXITING THE ELEVATOR! Can't you do that off to the side?! People like me will bump into you! Did the "sit till Waterfront and take the "next" train all the way to Brighouse" trick, and went to my familiar London Drugs for Wet Ones x3 and aloe Purell hand sanitizer x2, one each for my wallet. Finally got home at 9:05 on a 407, which I guess is fine - but I could have come home earlier!

STEAK AND BALLS! )


From Julie: A cool technological brown dragon!




From The Dragon's Den: I run on caffeine, dragons, and cuss words. RED AND YELLOW DRAGON! COFFEE MUG!

glowing_dragon: (Vancouver Canucks hockey!)
COFFEE TIME because of "lovely" East Coast scheduling! The Canucks played the Sabres today at 10 AM, and actually won 6-3 with a Loui Eriksson empty-netter AND two goals by Boeser! Carter Hutton hasn't had a win since October 22, 2019?!


From Julie M. and JUDGE JUDY: Nacole Koch?! BAD SPELLING OF NICOLE which reminds me of nachos and Cole Porter!




From AskReddit: Jesus Hitler de los Santos Peralta?!

glowing_dragon: (Poop)
From Julie M. and Introvert Spring: No, I am not shy. No, I am not anti-social. No, I am not stuck up. I am listening. I am observing.




From Dark Minds in Crime and JUSTICE BY ANY MEANS: Adlean Atterberry?! BAD SPELLING OF ADELINE!

From Julie: Two jumbo jets cracking a joke and having a good laugh at Miami International Airport.




This funny coffee mug is from "You're killin' me Smalls!" and Pete: I before E. Except when your foreign neighbor Keith receives counterfeit beige sleighs from feisty caffeinated weightlifters. Weird.




SEND NOODS on a sweatshirt, hahaha. Reminds me of my ex-friend Jimmy...




What 13 GOING ON 30 Character Are You?

You Are Matt.



You are kind-hearted and always looking to do right by people. You don’t have a mean bone in your body.
You can be indecisive at times, but it’s only because you’re so concerned with making the right decision.

You are an observer, and you believe that actions tell you a lot. You know people better than they know you.
You are more of an introvert, and because of this, you are mysterious. You keep a lot inside until you are ready to open up.

It's World Book Day today!


From my ARE YOU SHITTING ME book: Boston Bramlage?! The rest of the family had more normal names: Ronald, Rebecca, Brandon, Beau, and Roxanne...




From Reddit and r/namenerds: A London lawyer is named Friday February Eleven Biddle?!

Barry picked me up at 11:30 for my follow-up appointment at the eye clinic today. Everything looks good according to Dr. Wise, who gave me two more bottles of eyedrops, which I got the pharmacy next door to open! I also have a one-week followup appointment on the 17th at 1:30 PM, which is definitely a convenient time for me to bus. No more eye shield except for at night or when I sleep! Then Rachel called me at 5 today for about ten minutes; she says I sound good and I managed very well. I HOPE SO, hahaha! I will get to Dylan and Deb's place safely tonight after the kids' Mandarin class and dinner - phew!


Post-surgery selfie from last night... I swear I forgot what I did when I emailed the Cuya NESS perler to myself on New Year's Eve or transferring files from the phone to the computer, so thank goodness for the eye clinic's Wi-Fi, haha!




Lucas, Kumatora, Duster, and Boney are no longer hallucinating on Tanetane Island in Chapter 7 of MOTHER 3. They see this sign with a skull on it. "Secrets ahead. No trespassing."




Lucas, Kumatora, Duster, and Boney go to the MOTHER 3 Highway in Chapter 7 of MOTHER 3. They stop by the rest area. A cow is in the female restroom! "Moo. (Someone's in heeere!)"

I emailed Eric a reminder about the new(er) computer and the subsequent electronics recycling, and he emailed me back with detailed instructions on how to take a screenshot with Snipping Tool (so convenient!) of the System Tools, so he could compare with what was currently available. I definitely appreciated that, and he emailed me back with a Best Buy link! I do have just enough cash for that around here.

Then Christon emailed a bunch of us with an impromptu Sunday (but Monday) Dinner Evite at Jeremy's for May 21 with Thai or Vietnamese food... it's been a while, so it's time to do our semi-annual catchup, as I said in my RSVP! Lots of people time on that long weekend, so I'd better have lots of solitude after that till the Wednesday!


Queensy Menig?!




From Julie: Ay'Den?! What's with that totally unnecessary apostrophe?!




From Julie: Marvel is a woman?! I can see it as a boy name, BARELY!




From Julie: Sherrye?! SHERRY does not need an E on the end!




From Julie: Coty is said like Cody?! No way!

THIS ENTRY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE NON-ALIGNED TAGS.





"You Are Claire"




You are a bit of a cynic, but you have a good sense of humor - especially when it comes to observant and wry jokes.
You suffer most from your own indecisiveness in life. It would serve you well to follow your heart more.

You tell it like it is, sometimes to the point of being harsh. You know how to go for someone's sore spot.
It takes a while for your heart to warm up to love, even though you are open to the world and friendship.







glowing_dragon: (Bert and Ernie)



"You Are William"




You are a smart and contemplative person. You have always been ahead of your time.
You are very curious about the world and enjoy the role of observer. When it comes to many subjects, you definitely know your stuff.

You are dedicated and persistent. You may not be the most aggressive person, but you are assertive in your own way.
You find most other people fascinating. You are not one to intervene much in others' lives, but you will stand up for what is right.










"You Are Waffle Fries"




You are a bit of a rebel and even a lone wolf. You are extremely resistant to peer pressure.
You aren't one to follow the crowd, and you may even run in the opposite direction. You like the solitude of the road less traveled.

You can be a bit of a cynic at times, but you are never too pessimistic. You have a hearty appetite for all of life's experiences, including food.
You like your waffles a little different, and won't just stop at waffle fries. Falafel waffle, anyone?
