pillowtops, lawns and leftovers.

i did something last night that i'm not sure i've ever done beofre - i'll have to think about it a bit more but i think it may be true. but before that...
yesterday morning k-win - vancouver's greatest hair dresser/cutter/stylist - took the scissors to me and did her best to make me not look like a complete doofus...she cuts a good head of hair that kid does...then it was off to see about getting a better bed. if you've been playing along at home you'd know i bought a new bed after trying out a few at the old sleep country. it came last sunday and it's been a bit of disaster. a little too soft. so yesterday we went back and tried out a few more floor models. they're pretty cool there really. letting you lie around on thier beds, and see what's what. in the end another bed with be delivered to my place in just over a week. a firmer baby. nice. hopefully it'll be better.
then it was off to cut lisa's lawn in the west end and while we were down there, go see the fabulous ang at caper's. what a delight that girl is. so great. she was looking hot yesterday so i told her so.
after the lawn action in the west end we headed over to kits to see about going to BED, a store that deals in just bedding, and it turned out it was HIPPIE DAZE in kits...holy crap! more tie-dyed bullshit than you've ever seen. after a quick walkaround we had to get the fuck outta there...oh, while we were in the area we dropped by don bull's and while i cut his lawn - happy birthday don bull - he gave shauna a tour of his new place. she says it's a very nice place...good work bullski.
it was all a little much for us so we decided that it would be better if we went back to my place and took a load off and just watched a movie...hot fuzz it was. we had both heard good things about the hot fuzz...um...not so good. in fact, shitola. the less said about it the better.
the only good thing about that movie was that it got us up to dinner time which, it was decided , was going to be topanga with devon. so we rounded her up and headed over for a little snack. so here's where i did something i don't know i've ever done before...i couldn't finish my meal and ended-up taking the remains home in a takeout container....i believe it's a first. maybe i am becoming a true geezer. i did order a full meal deal with all the trimmings - dairy and all, and ate too many chips but, that's no excuse...
after dinner i dropped shauna and devon off at some disco dance party over near commercial drive. the woman having the party is a good friend of my friend lael sleep. lael's father and my dad used to work together years ago in education in delta. lael's sister is also a very good friend of mine - but of course as we all get all and turn into geezers, have children etc, i never see her or her husband frank anymore...love them.
i saw lael later in the evening...she's been living in china teaching english and has been there for a while...it was a party to send her off again....

more lawns today....if the weather holds even a little....

have fun.
