peanutty
you know how they say "you don't miss what you have until it's gone"?? well, i miss my eye. my left eye more specifically. the left side of my face is all poofy. why? good question. i have a super sensitive allergy to peanuts. . .
last night, i went out with mafu and moog. we watched Kill Bill 2. this, is a good movie in it's entirety and both volumes on their own. pai mei is my favorite simply because of that nutty beard of his. the small differences behind the making of his scene too, the camera used was of lower quality. giving off the similar effect of an old school kung fu movie. but only in scenes where pai mei is the only character in frame. tarantino...awesome.
we went to dinner along spadina afterwards, golden noodle house? i think that was the name. i've had take out from here before so it was a good idea to go there, meaning safe. although, the confusing "peanut conversation" with the non-english speaking waitress proved to be quite distressing. it was awesome how much a simple question like "do you cook anything in peanut oil? or with peanuts?" could cause her face to distort with such a look of pain. she tried to communicate and in the end i give her an "A" for effort. other than that it was good times, i think i will not order the same thing i ordered last time tho, curry..yes! squid..no! the boys ordered something that i enjoy eating aswell, but it was, unfortunately served with peanut sauce, so i did not partake in the yumminess.
dropped the boys off at their respective homes. but all went awry when i cheeked moog good-bye. it took about a 15' distance for me to start reacting to the remnants of peanut sauce from moog. itchy palms, neck, throat, and the blowing up of the face too!! i decided to gun it home. literally gun it. fate seemed to have it in for me that night, i went straight for the highway and found that the ramps from avenue to bayview were closed. awesome! after a bit of diversion i get on the highway and proceed with the "gun it" plan. the whole time sneezing and wheezing 135 km/h home!! seriously i was a mess, but i was laughing for a while because can you imagine being pulled over for speeding??
roll down window. "uh. hi officer!" give him a glare with the quasimodo left side of my face. "i was speeding right?"
the officer taken a back by my eye says, "yah you were going pretty quickly it's a good thing...uhhhh, are u ok?"
"i'm having an allergic reaction from saying bye to a friend, i'd like to explain to you the whole situation but if i stick around any longer you're going to have to reach into my laptop bag pull out my 6" life-saver needle and jab it into my outer thigh...would u mind if i go and get some medicine in me? or are we prepared to break my record of never having to use the 6" life-saver needle?"
the officer responds by putting away his ticket book and leading me home with sirens a blaze at 160 km/h!
ha ha that would be awesome!! that would totally beat gerky's curfew excuse. anyway, that's what led me to be home and not at work today. and worse i'm writing this so late because only now has my eye started to subdue. i slept most of the day because i missed my left eye. i figured i was home, i could get some reading done, reading with one eye gave me a headache, so i stopped that quick fast and in a hurry. watching tv was even worse, so that stopped too. bottom line, i couldn't do anything without giving myself a headache. so i slept. and now here we are...
