This past weekend the crew from Saskatoon (Clayton, Dawn, Vance, Ian, Angie) made the adventure down for Barb's birthday. Before heading out to the Gaslight, we had drinks (mostly shots) in Barb's basement. Barb made the "good" ones, I made the intentionally bad ones. The best one I made involved a little of everything from Barb's bar except the Talisker and Chambord. Vance named in "Jizz in the Toilet" after what it looked like in the shaker. After I added all my ingredients and shook it up, it poured into shot glasses looking like silty lake bottom water. Quite the change. And it actually turned out tasting like an After Eight mint even though there wasn't really that much peppermint schnapps in it. The best shot of the night were the Rider shots that Clayton, Vance and I had. The Rider shots were actually straight shots of Absinth. After we were primed up, we went to the Gaslight. Good times were had there. Dig, Steph, Tara, Taneal and Barb's old music teacher showed up. There might've been others but I don't remember. After we were done there, we went back to Barb's place and Clayton and I went to check out Clayton's extraordinarily shitty new winter beater ('82 Olds Cutlass). Moments later, the rest of the gang minus Vance showed up. Ian and I proceeded to rip the bumper off the back of Clayton's Cutlass. Silly rusty framed cars. Clayton didn't want to leave it in the street so we made it fit in the trunk. Made it fit meaning there was still a piece of frame and the shock absorbers still attached to the bumper so it had to be forced into the small opening. We got it wedged most of the way in and Clayton jumped on the trunk lid to make it shut. Aren't beaters great? Best part of the weekend: Barb's mom yelled at Vance for jumping on the car even though he was sleeping in the basement. Good times :D

On a completely different note, I had a real estate agent come look at the house today. I did a mad dash and cleaned up the house as best as I could in 2.5 hours. He's calling me back on a value tomorrow. Hopefully it sells soon. Hopefully the Neon sells soon too. Who wants a Neon? Don't everybody jump at once.
