On Saturday morning, SFU students participated in the charity event, Thrill the World, a global attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the largest simultaneous dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller at Kitsilano Beach, Vancouver.
In the evening, I went over to Demanda and GEoff's for a pre-Parade of Lost Souls party. We feasted on scary Flesh and Blood Sandwiches (turkey and bell pepper), Tombstones (rice krispie treats), and Rotting Fingernails (toasted pumpkin seeds). The house was decorated like a Haunted House. I dressed up as Alice In Wonderland. Riff Raff lent me a stuffed bunny.
We headed to Commercial Drive for the Parade of Lost Souls. Surprisingly, most people did not dress up, or maybe dressed as tourists. Sadly, a lot of people littered on the ground. Demanda and I scolded a Super Mario for throwing his beer bottle on the park grass.
Some of the best costumes I saw: an aerobics class, Hello Kitty Stormtrooper, Marionettes, and various Public Dreams performers. Great fire show at Grandview Park by the CinderBellas and Radiant Heat.

Bad Girls
Well, I have been a bad girl. Not literally, at the moment, but when I receive gift certificates I forget to use them. Ones for The Bay, Capers, Jacob, A&B Sound, Pacific Centre, Blue Water, and Rocky Mountaineer Whistler Train. Most people would rush right out and spend the paper/card-for-cash immediately, but me, hey, I put it away safe for a rainy day and find it two years later. Whoops!
Another hectic week at work, my first mid-term, and a nutter-disengage after two dates. If it's not for the half-life crisis mid-thirties men, it's the younger insecure and needy momma boys looking for codependency. Mr. T, I miss your companionship dearly.
Nothing a apple martini, chicken and veggie stir-fry and some Sex and The City episodes won't cure. I am completely hooked on this British show Secret Diary of A Call Girl.
Trying to figure out how to mix-meld the weekend. A bit of errands, a bit of fun, some homework, some chores, and some retail therapy? Demanda asked me to be her plus one for fun to the spa for her birthday next month. I cannot wait to be pampered from head to toe at Spa Utopia.

A La Weekend
The weekend was a blast. I went to a fun hipster party on Friday that had a great group of people, DJs, live PA, and grilled tasty meats in a beautiful loft in Gastown. Met a bunch of new cool people, danced, and got to hang with some great Victoria people. Happy 4th Anniversary P6!
We (me + Victoria peeps) continued our twenty-four hour extravaganza with brunch at Locus. Best apple-cinnamon pancakes ever. I love their apple-raspberry juice. I ran my guests back to the ferry terminal just as it started to get stormy. Stormy days are best spent in bed cuddling with a lovely warm body. But a girl cannot have everything she desires. Well, maybe. I am currently taking applications.
Tried to nap, but really what was the point. I can push through on 5 hours sleep. I went back down to Gastown for Erin's stagette party. She has a funky loft in Gastown. We started out by Blue-in' Up in blue accessories, ribbons and pom-poms.
We nibbled and drank, and then headed to Salt. This restaurant serves amazing pinic-portion tapas. You can pick your wine, spirits or beer, and server will help you choose a tasting platter or meats, cheeses, and condiments. The beef tenderloin, farmhouse brie and ash camembert, and an Australian shiraz were a perfect compliment. With slices of French bread, you can nibble away and wow your taste buds at every bite.
Slightly tipsy in a short skirt and big black boots, we refreshed back at the loft and then headed to Lotus. We danced the evening away with a blue cheer here and there.
I meant to go to Donna's birthday party around midnight, but I just could not muster the stamina. I was yawning and beat from a craptastic week. I will have to make it up to her BIG TIME. I wasn't sure how late her party would be going on until. I am pathetic. IOU a good time out on the town!
I am attempting to study for my mid-term on Tuesday. Unfortunately, procrastinating is winning. It does not help that I am stressed by all the crazy people falling apart around me. How did I not get that Memo?
