Friday afternoon: Jen and I acted as runners and minions for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
crankygrrl and A in their quest for chocolate brown bridesmaids' outfits. Worked out pretty well. I had fun, although the people who were having to try on a lot of clothes, possibly not so much.
[And somehow I forgot all about Friday evening in there -- dinner with C and K andscapersuse and Cranky. I thought this update seemed short. Was great to see everyone.]
Saturday evening: metcrankygrrl, pretentiousgit, and monkeycommando for drinks at Murphy's. Drank too much, owing to forgetting that water is better when you're thirsty. Much fun.
Yesterday: Got filling replaced. My dentist, who rocks, showed me pictures of before, during, and after. Also got the complimentary paraffin-wax hand treatment. Which has the disadvantage of leaving me basically without means of communication, although I suppose I could have screamed if I'd really needed to. (I didn't.) Left work at a decent hour! And went to a used bookstore over on McCaul that I've been meaning to check out. They keep the erotica and the children's books in the same room, which amused me. The plan from here on in is: leave at a decent hour, no matter how productive or otherwise I've been.
Politics:
Kung Fu Monkey and John Scalzi on Stephen Colbert.
misia and mrdankelly discuss "illegal" immigration here and here.
Lest we in Canada get smug: Canadian Border Services agents behaving badly. Not cool, people. I don't care what the parents have done, you do not go after the kids.
And finally: Stephen Harper Doesn't Eat Babies: GO Transit. (Of course, as my dad said this morning, this is still awaiting third-party confirmation.)
