CRUZn'
today was an excellent day! i was at home. yah home! while the other people were at work...where i WASN'T! get the hell outta here!
sorry, i know that my excitement may seem to be a bit excessive, but give me a break! it's a rarity that i say that i'm at home because i really seriously don't have to be at work. and it's not because i'm sick or dying, snowed-in (yay! for the burbs), or heaven forbid suffering from another serious inner ear viral headache! i dont have work, because well work is CLOSED for the week! so i'm happy and downright ecstatic!
after last night's festivities at the cruz' we organized mission : "old school Nintendo" and put it into play, today. wherein the mission entailed us trying to locate a nearly extinct Nintendo system. that's right, don't laugh. we were looking for the red and grey system, the first ever "gotta-have" console.
we stopped by FMP, thinking it would be less hectic. only to find that not only does this place not have the electronics we were looking for but rather a tonne of stores selling WIKKID AWESOME bootleg DVDs (3 for $20 from the lady with cuffs but no sleeves!) but we also learned, SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO PARK and it's 10 times the good times when there's snow involved! where's the logic in parking so far in that u take up two spots? and to make it all that much better, have someone park behind and in front of you so now you've got three pro-star parkers trying to fit in two non-existent parking spots! oh the best was the invent-a-spot in front of two cars so that you and all other surrounding vehicles can't get out. classic times. and a picture of the chaos:
and the two men? well they're trying to figure out how many other cars they can fit in there. just 5 more! i swear!
we continued on to sPACIFIC Mall, watching illegally one of the newly bought illegal DVDs on the illegally placed TV. we're all about being gangsta, when going to the asian mall. [sideNOTE: i want a tv in my car, for the sheer rabadiculousness of it all] although the parking process was once again lengthy, we managed to score a kick-ass spot right by the entrance! it was unfortunate that we got nowhere in our "old school Nintendo" mission, GEE got laughed at enough times, and glared at even more times than that. but loi and i both scored some wikkid purses at my new favorite store, and found a "one-sousand fohtee fi dorrar" cell phone i've been eyeing on the nokia site for a while. one-sousand is a rot of money for a phone, perhaps some other time.
to complete the night, we brought dear GB to the Scarberian answer to Sauga's "Tremendous", we had dinner at "Perfect". it was Delightful! really! i hope to one day open a 24-HR restaurant named, one of these, then i'd fit right in!
really, the point in my mentioning this day at all is coming up. and it's a good one! are you ready?
we made our order, and as our waitress is reading back to us what we ordered, we notice that her speaking skills aren't all that great, and her engish wasn't qualitay either. she goes through our dim sum list...
"two har gow, two siu mai, one sticky lice, two spa...spa..*trails off*, one deep fly squid, one pa...pa...mumble mumble..." and she walks off.
she gets the A for her effort, but the A++ for the silent talk. that was great, she had serious "numb-chuck skills"
all in all it was a great day hanging out with GB and Loi, "HECK YA!"
oh! and if anyone knows of a Nintendo system i can buy off them email me and i'll send you a cookie for making my day! not bad for a holiday post. i should write more later, but for now, i will sleep.
