sask-vatch

tomorrow, after work, i am venturing down south to look for large furry animals. also known as, i'm going to sasquatch festival.

i have been looking forward to this for over three months. lee and i bought our tickets the second they went on sale and called each other once they were purchased. we've been talking about it at least once a week since.

it's one of those things, though, where i really hope the build up isn't more exciting than the actual event. i don't want it to come too quickly because it will be over all too soon. then what do i have to look forward to?

ilia is coming with us too. though i've known lee for almost three years (has it really been that long?) and only know ilia because he and lee are like, best friends, i've never actually hung out with the two of them together before. shit. as ilia aptly put it "i think mikhailas going to be seeing double by the end of the weekend...".
note to self: don't give them sugar!

ilia wasn't at my house for five minutes, when he ran out on to the patio, stood on the knee high (wobbly as fuck) coffee table, and was in the midst of shouting "what's up vancouver?" when the entire thing collapsed beneath him. i handed him the 'tool kit for dummies' my dad gave me for christmas. we now have a way sturdier table on our patio.

my guests have definitely made home in my previously semi-tidy living room. their belongings are strewn everywhere (kind of looks like my bedroom). i don't really mind though. i came home from work, and the dishes were clean. fair trade off.

what can i say? i love them. i love having them around. and i love their company. i wish they both lived here. although, i almost feel as if i would see even less of them if they lived in vancouver than i do when they live in edmonton.

so, all that being said, i will relish the time i have with the boys and also the time i have in george, washington, basking in the sun at the gorge (it is supposed to be nearly 30 degrees the entire weekend) and listening to some great music. it is something i will probably remember and talk about for a while to come.

i need to buy disposable cameras.

i already have bought a fanny pack.


but for now, the boys are bike riding around the sea wall (maybe they'll burn off some energy...not likely), and i'm going to eat a fudgesicle and pack my bags for the weekend.
