ramblings.

TASTE OF THE DANFORTH 2005 was quite stellar. A bit of confusion at the start with the group splitting up, but all was well in the end. Highlights of the day were definitely the candy shop (”I thought it said sux0rs.” “So did I…”) and DERICK THE MIME. He was such a cool bean! While people were all in line for their souvlaki, we saw a mime walk past with a green milk crate. Then he went and stood on the milk crate. That’s all. Until you put money in, then he’d bow in a very stiff, robotic manner, and continue standing. SO, of course we interfere, with Mila and Alex and Eilish as the ringleaders. Everything from offering the mime souvlaki, to taking pictures, to trying tricky manouvers such as two people putting a coin in at once, from opposite ends, to reading to him. Apart from a slight smile appearing on his mimey face, nothing much happened. Until Alex shoved a peice of gum in his mouth, then he talked to us. Derick the Mime is quite the cool bean, but he had to split and so did we.

Off to this cafe for dessert, and halfway through we realized Omar was gone, and had been since about the time we finished heckling the mime. And we couldn’t call him due to his lackage of minutes. But he ended up buying minutes, calling someone, and meeting us at the cafe. YAY! I didn’t…actually..order anything, as they were bastardly expensive. But Eilish gave me the brownie from her brownie cheesecake, which was very tasty. =D

And then we made our way home, pretty much. Dali, Colin and I were out of place because the others all knew lots of people. Got a ride home from Colind’s brother. Fun fun fun. Good times, good friends, good food, super-cool mime. What more could I ask for?
