i have a great idea, and it so needs to happen that i don't care if someone steals it. we need a website that will give info on songs used in commercials. i am so tired of hearing the telus commercial and wondering who the hell sings that song. how great would it be to see a commercial with a catchy song, be able to go online to one easy site and find out who sings it? SO GREAT. let's make it happen, people.
in other news, it's way too freakin hot. not even funny. heat pervaded my entire wknd, nearly cooking it all the way through.
friday my honey came home after 3 weeks in pittsburgh, so i got to see him for all of about half an hour before he left to go to a work party. hmm. i ate some sushi and had plans to meet up with some friends, but after dinner i totally passed out on the couch and never made it out.
sat. was a good sleep-in day and J and i lazed on the couch, experimenting with various limb configurations and watching MTV (so addictive). we went out for dinner and a quick trip to IKEA, then saw the new 'pirates of the caribbean' which was great, although i wish i had seen the first one. i think i would have gotten more out of the surprise appearance at the end. instead, i was like "i don't get it. who is that?" while the rest of the theatre let out a collective "oooh" and one loud "whoa!"
we hit dairy queen and then rented some movies at blockbuster ('the aristocrats' and 'hustle and flow').
sunday we met up with friends of mine for brunch at maggie's (food was awesome as usual, but it was sooo hot) and then J and i hit queen street for some shopping. i'm still on the mission for an emily the strange patch for my bag, but so far no luck. i did find many many toys i need at the silver snail though. ah, muppets. how i love those goofy little bastards.
we bought some amazing artwork from this dude on the street, mike parsons, and some smoothies from a pimped-out ice cream truck with mad rims. kind of weird, but hey, i think we both had some heat stroke at that point so the cold drinks were much needed. we went home to soak up some a/c for a few hours, and then out for a summerlicious dinner at noce, which was great (details to follow, i swear). afterwards, we went to the most kick ass movie rental place ever (the film buff on roncesvalles) and got a ton of wicked old movies (my fave) and documentaries. and ice cream. good times!
