straight shooter and mover of crap.



today mishi came by here and we loaded her bike in the car and went over to commercial drive and grabbed a rolling table she wanted at attic treasures. it seems i have been on the drive a lot lately - i've got to stop that. we dropped it off at her place and then grabbed some crap she's goona store at the pickle for now and then try and sell in a granville island garage sale thing. i think. good luck.
later on i had the early bird special. penelope and i went to vig's for dinner and because that idiot doesn't take reservations we went there for the dinner seating which opens at 5:30 pm. and what made it even more exciting was that i decided to take my motorcycle - which i have been meaning to take in for a much needed tune-up, and we barely made it there. actually, we didn't make it there on the bike at all. around 29th and granville heading north it all went south and i had to pull off the road and tell penelope to get a cab and get a seat at vig's and i'd be there as soon as i could.
she hailed a cab and took off. i stayed behind and shot dirty looks at my bike. then started pushing it towards vig's at 11th and granville. these really are the good times. i arrived at vig's before the doors opened and had time to sit and cool down.
dinner was good, although i have to say the duck was a little overdone and very chewy, and penelope is convinced that vig is nuts with his crazy eyes. speaking of crazy - or not, sarah mclaughlin was sitting next to us with her annoying husband, ash or soot or whatever his name is. man, that guy knew what he was doing when he got her to cheat on her then boyfriend dave kershaw - a friend of mine, and got in there and made his millions by marrying her. and holy guacamole that girl's got huge knockers...i'm sorry but, pretty hard to notice in her low cut maternity shirt/blouse thing as she's strutting around vig's making sure everyone see her hige belly and cans...man, i'm a dick. oh well...like she gives a shit what i think.
ok....whatever.
after dinner the bike started up and we headed for my place so i could get it home and then take penelope home in my car. thanks penelope for the nice dinner at vig's...she bought me a gift certificate for helping her get her electric bike and for fixing her muffler on her car. no problemo.
later on i was on msn and my pal katherine messaged me and told me she had been 'stood-up' and asked if i wanted to go and play some pool...sure, why not? so off to east end billiards i went to meet her. i don't really know her that well but thought playing pool would be ok. i used to be a good pool player but tonight, not so much. i had flashes of my former self but nothing like the old pool playing garn....it was till fun though.
ok...bed soon...gotta get up and take that bike to the shop...
