mmm, chugging relish
kristi came up for a visit this weekend for this term’s queen’s players show. i won’t go into too many details about the show itself (and i don’t remember a whole lot of them, frankly), but suffice it to say that it was the drunkest and rowdiest show i’ve ever been to. for those of you who don’t know, queen’s players is a musical comedy performance that takes place in a bar, and the audience buys a lot of alcohol for the cast. it definitely takes a special kind of skill to perform immediately after chugging a beer. i think the highlight may have been the passing of a container of relish up to a cast member in lieu of alcohol – and he chugged it. yum.
anyway, the weekend was pretty fun, and i introduced my sister to the following (keeping in mind that she actually LIVED in kingston for 2 years):
- mekong’s vietnamese food
- white mountain’s yummy ice cream
- morrison’s super breakfast
i still can’t understand how she’d never done any of that stuff when she lived here…especially white mountain. but anyway…
i went to my dad’s today for a bit and spent much of the day feeling woozy, presumably ’cause i had to take extra allergy medicine to fend off my runny nose. good times. oh, and on my way home, i drove by a car with a bumper sticker reading “S-E-X-Y Senior Citizen”…oh, and it was being driven by a guy in his mid 20s. now THAT was picture worthy.
Yesterday on the Metro, I saw this guy wearing a t-shirt that said, “I fucked your sister”.
I want one too.
June 21st, 2004 at 12:40 amum. you’d never been to mekong until i took you there a few months ago… and how long have YOU lived in kingston?! muuuuch longer than 2 years. so if anyone needs slagging off about that, i propose it is you… not kristi. i have no comment about white mountain though.
June 21st, 2004 at 9:59 ama) i did hear that you are a lesbian, sofi.
b) you could see mekong from kristi’s old apartment, thus making it inexcusable. but thank you.
June 21st, 2004 at 10:06 amI’m more concerned that you seem to think that mekong is a noteworthy Kingston restaurant.
June 21st, 2004 at 9:18 pmAnd you think Morrison’s is a noteworthy Kingston restaurant? [the waitresses’ superhuman speedy service aside]
June 22nd, 2004 at 11:41 amhave YOU eaten at morrison’s? do you know someone who hasn’t?
June 22nd, 2004 at 11:49 amHey, I’m not saying I don’t like Morrison’s, in fact I think there’s no alternative when you’re looking for a Sunday morning greasy spoon. I was just pointing out the implied idea that Robin apparently thinks Morrison’s is higher up on the Kingston food chain than Mekong.
