So this past week has been fairly fabulous! Seeing Bjork was amazing! The venue was outside (Deer Lake Park) and beautiful! Me and Robyn drank lots of beer and she got some fish and chips in a bucket that says "big bucket o' fries" with pictures of fries on it that she gave to me. Because it was obviously the best bucket ever, maybe even cooler than my hp bucket from the movie theatre.
Anyways, the opener for Bjork was complete shit noise so we tried to hide from it by going to the bathroom 500 times at Robyn's beer-drinking request/need and so that she could smoke and I could eat ice cream far away from pain. But once Bjork started we were watching and swaying. The best thing was how her stage had these funny banner/flags that were various neon green/red/blue with pictures of frogs and snakes on them. And the brass section were wearing what looked like matching neon pylons/beach balls. It was funny.
And Bjork was amazingly wonderful. She kept saying "Thank you" in a kittenish voice whenever she wasn't singing and she sang tons of gooders! Me and Robyn snuck up to the front/side to catch more of the excitement just in time for some awesome beats to happen with a light show playing upon the trees and all. Oh and at one point earlier someone released a single pink balloon that floated slowly skywards during a very poignant song and it was like perfect magic symbolism. Or something like that anyways.
So yeah, all in all a really enjoyable show! If my camera didn't hate me and my shaky hands then I would have pictures but alas. ;D
And this weekend we had a big drinkfest with Kat, Mike and Andrew who was visiting them. We got super drunk and took random retarded/hilarious pictures! It was great fun but once we got home Matt threw up all over the sheets we had yet to put on our bed (note: do not leave making your bed until after a drinking party) plus the comforter. So that really blew(chunks...haha). And then we had a weird drunken fight that in retrospect makes no sense at all. So that was weird too. But we made up the next day and were super snuggly in our hangover-ness. So I had my first hangover! Weirdness...
And yeah that's about it for now. I get my bar training tomorrow at work though!! Yay!! ;D
