Today is Saturday, the 15th of September. It is the Birthday of one of my closest friends today. Unfortunately she is on the other side of Canada. Therefore I took it upon myself to celebrate it indirectly with her. This is how I have spent my day sofar: I slept in until 11:00 am today. I met with a former neighbour and had a caramel frappachino. I then came home and my other friend called and asked if I wanted to meet for a beer on a patio. The temperature today is 25 degress Celcius. I then showered and met her and another friend for a beer. It was to hot to stick to beer (because once it hits the bottom of the bottle it tastes like pee). So I then had a glass of rye and Diet Pepsi. My birthday friend called me on my cell phone and chatted with the friends I was with (she had met them before). After an hour or so we paid the bill and left. On the way home I saw someone I knew waiting for the bus. Why is *that* significant? Because he is from the same hometown I am from and it is unusal for me to see someone (or run across someone) I know standing on the street. I was going to stop and pick him up and drive him to where he wanted to go but I was on an awkward street where I could not make sudden stops. I then came home. Had some dinner. Came online to check my mail and then the rest of the posts on this community. Later on this evening the same group of people that I met this afternoon and I will be meeting and attending a show at Yuk Yuk's Comedy Club. This is how I would spend the day with my friend if she was in the same city with me. However her drinks would be on me and I would probably foot the bill tonight.
OK... so some of you may be wondering what the point of all of *this* was. It is simple.
We all spend so much time of our lives on this darn computer and I have not a clue about any one of you (in terms of who you are, what you all do in your spare time or let alone what you do on a Saturday afternoon). However, I do know that we all have similar interests (this page, psi stuff and the unknown), and I may know a small handful of people's real names. I also know that we all share the same disgust regarding the horrible events that took place on the 11th of September in the year 2001.
So here is the thing. I do not necessairly need to know your first names, nor do I want a full play by play as to what any of you did this fine Saturday afternoon. I know I do not share personal bits of information (of myself) with too many people, and being anonymous is something I actually enjoy being. But I do want to know what the temperature is/was where you are at and what you did for enjoyment on this fine Saturday afternoon.
Cheers!
