(no subject)
Yeah ok image heavy and all that jazz.
So early in the day yesterday Jason chim__chim came over and we went to Pomona Mills because I needed to take random pictures for a friend of a friend. Essentially none of the photos I took there were noteworthy. Except the above. YEAH IDK EITHER.
At some point afterwards it was like, WELL NOW WHAT? So Jason and I went for burgers and then we had no idea what to do so we bummed around until Annie myreasoninlife got off her surprise workshift which stopped her from coming along that morning, at which point we picked her up and hauled ass downtown with way too much expensive camera shit for our own good.
We figured that if we got mugged (being all Chinese and defenseless-looking and not knowing kung fu and all), whoever did it would be some very rich muggers indeed.
We played Cooking Mama 3 in the subway until we got to King.
I like to think my photography brings out the best in people.
WOOO
DOUBLE WOOO
At some point I gave up and just started waving my camera around for 10 second exposures at a time.
FUCK YEAH.
GO SHAKY HANDS GO
We kind of shuffled to Bay Street, and then shuffled over to City Hall, where all my photos stank. Then we were like, ok we're semi-kinda-done and shuffled towards the Eaton Centre. Just before we got there, we noticed some awesomely creepy window displays.
We kind of lol'd at how the woman-on-the-far-right's eyes looked so empty and hollow, presumably because she was slaving away cooking for everyone else |:
Annie and me: "SPOCK? IS THAT YOU?"
Jason: ...
This is creepier in person because all the kids are :D :D :D while hammering slowly on the table with their utensils and Santa is turning his head left and right just a bit too far to be natural.
Next display was weird too, as you can see.
Dude next to the Christmas tree on the far left would keep raising and lowering his hand with the garland, as if he had no bloody idea what to do with it.
The dog was very cute.
Also creepy scene. One of the upstairs windows had the creepiest silhouettes projected through it. I mean, we knew it was supposed to be a dancing couple, but it looked so wrong.
Once again though, the dog was cute.
YAY SLAVE WORKERS-I mean. Elves. I checked the list Santa was holding. None of us were on it.
Annie: WE'RE GOING TO HELL.
Annie and Me: "OMG SPOCK, IS THAT YOU AGAIN?"
Annie: "YEAH WE'RE REALLY GOING TO HELL."
Last scene! (Technically first scene, since we were kind of walking in the wrong direction of the sidewalk.)
Jason helpfully pointed out that this reindeer appeared to have a glowing zit/cancerous growth on its nose.
AND THEN WE GOT TO THE EATON CENTRE. And on the sidewalk, there was this:
All of us: "... IS THAT HEAVENLY SWORD?"
All of us: "OMG IT'S HEAVENLY SWORD."
The artist made some pretty lol-worthy and internet-referencing notes.
Apparently he was saving up money to see his daughter in Halifax. But he obviously wasn't there when we were there, so I could not donate to his cause.
AND YEAH THAT WAS MY DAY. :D Oh I forgot to mention that at some point we went to eat Mexican food and it was good. But Annie couldn't finish her salad. DEFEATED BY A SALAD.
ETA: Annie's photos are here (but locked, just so you know).
ETA2: OH YEAH I forgot to mention the bit where along the way to City Hall we kind of stumbled into Philadelphia a movie set! D: We saw a Philly's noodle place but then inside it was just a Timmy's, and then we saw a bunch of emergency vehicles labelled Philadelphia police services and were all "..." and then proceeded to try taking photos but then we got shooed away. ):
ETA3: Jason's photos are here. His tripod skillz mean his photos pwn mine. Also, warning for one photo he took of my doll making obscene gestures when we bummed at my house for a while. :x
