new photos in the august album!
lots of great weather in vancouver, so lots of frisbee and going to the beach. mike, em and i have been playing a good deal of settlers of catan as well.
there was a lot of hubbub about the richmond night market, so we decided to head down there one night. god we ate so much. never before have i witnessed so many stalls with (insert random food) on a stick. then we cruised around the crappy stalls and found next to nothing. well, mike and i found nothing, and em and mike's mom found infinite shit. i guess that's how it goes. i hate shopping.
also got out with the dog, andy. he loves the water, and loves smelling other dogs' asses. not that i can blame him.
my stove isn't nearly fucked up enough, so i bought some cheap mispriced rotisserie chickens and made a bunch of chicken soup.
lastly, it was serena's birthday recently. she turned 8. when i was 8, my dad spanked me real hard for bringing a penthouse magazine to school. i was in third grade. i'm unsure if he was more mad that i brought it to school, or the fact that my teacher must have known that it was his. the whipping hurt, but i became a hero to my class for, i duno, a week. then a note got sent home, which i had to have signed, and the teacher didn't believe that my dad had signed it because his signature is so scribbly.
re: poker, i'm cold as ice! hopefully that turns around today though.
