my mom came down last night, we hung out, watched dirty dancing and talked thru it like we always do.
today was great! we went to the eaton centre and i managed to buy shoes (sandals), undies (adorable boyshorts), a few tanks and a cardigan. we came back to the apartment for an hour or so, and changed for the evening. i wore my blue-green dress with a wide hot pink belt and black peep-toe wedges. as andrew put it, i was "dressed to the tits". looking good. i drove us downtown and we walked to a restaurant of mom's choosing. i went with the summerlicious prix fixe menu, and it was tasty! mussels (shared), chicken picata with angel hair pasta and amazingly delicious asparagus, and vanilla ice cream + espresso (also shared). omg, so good!
after dinner was the night's main event: rock of ages. it was excellent! i highly recommend it, and you should all go if ever given the chance. brilliant. wonderful music, great laughs, and i may have a tiny crush on the french canadian who played the male lead. it certainly didn't hurt that i was sitting second row orchestra, and i swear to god homeboy checked out my rack. being served beer in a plastic cup in my seat by a boy who looked like a cruch i had in london was another highlight of the night.
speaking of london, i'm so excited to visit in 2.5 weeks! friends and food and drinks and a city that i love. excellent! |
