I must say that the Vanier Winter Formal did allow for us to consume edible food if nothing else. The menu read like a Thanksgiving dinner's with a few things thrown in for the vegetarians and vegans (a pilaf of some sort and mushroom tortellini). The turkey itself was good, an thats about where it ends. The flavour of the stuffing was good, but the fact that it congealed into a spherical mass concerned me. The mashed potatoes were an improvement on the regular shit that the shovel onto us, but once again it was a swing and a miss. The saving graces of the dinner were dessert and the large quantity of wine people brought, the crap that Gord brought that would be better as a vinegar notwithstanding. Of course, beign with everyone made up for the lack lustre food. It seems like this year there isn't the Mack/Ross thing going on, so this was a nice opportunity for everyone to hang out together.
Some douche called my phone three times on Friday. I tried calling back all day Saturday, but it didn't work (hey, if someone calls my phone three times in one evening, it must be important!). I finally got through this morning to a very rude old Croatian woman. I told her my name and number and that someone from her number called me three times on Friday. She abruptly hung up on me. Bitch.
