Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to go float a Milky Way.

So I was playing a little Guild Wars with winamp randomly running through my extensive playlist, when a great little tune came on. But for some reason, I couldn't immediately identify it. That's because it doesn't have a name, but I know one of the guys that whipped it up. Click here if you want to hear it. It fit tres bon with what I was doing. :)

Speaking of what else I was doing in Guild Wars this weekend, I blew ninety thousand to raise the level of one of my titles (and didn't succeed). I'm an idiot. Good thing it's only pretend. :P

I worked on Saturday, because one of my guards took it off and nobody else wanted the shift. No biggie.

But on the way, looking down from the SkyTrain on the highway, I saw a hand-painted sign: "Giant Prawns $10!"

A kilometer or two later, there was "Shrimp $12", followed by "Crab $12" and various other signs. I was expecting to see a low-end seafood place that had just opened up, but instead I saw a beat-up van with a hand-painted sign on the side parked beside the road, with the driver throwing a look out the window periodically to see if any customers had pulled up.

So my question is... who in the hell would buy fish out of the back of a van, when we live in a port city that's awash in seafood?!

Got a marked bill back in change from my chai. Had a website saying "Track this bill!". The bill has had a boring life. What a silly concept.

Saw The Departed on Sunday, and it was good. I also discovered that I can't drink a litre of soup immediately before a movie, and then drink a liter of Sprite during the movie without some discomfort.

I didn't leave, but I did make sure that I was the first out of the gate when the movie was done. ;)

Incidentally, when I was getting the aforementioned Sprite, there was a girl in line in front of me that was so skinny, her shoulderblades made some sort of reverse cleavage in her shirt. It was... eye-catching.

She also had eyes that were partly on the outward curve of her face. I noticed this from directly behind her. Use your imagination.

On the way home, right before our station, the train jolted and then bounced and skidded with the brakes activating appropriately. I've got fairly good balance, but all I could think of was "What's this train trying to do, a fucking wheelie?"

It wasn't, but they took it out of service anyway. At our station. Nice.
