Ploko ploko, ploko loko, ploko lokoplo!

Long weekend! Sunday was laundry day, and we also planned a night out with this Latvian guy we met at Church: Janis. For some reason he wanted to have dinner with us before going back to Vancouver. We met him and his husband at Chinatown, and we went to this Chinese restaurant that didn't really make it to my top 25 restaurants on Spadina & College. Since Mareks divided the table in Latvian speakers and non-Latvian speakers, I was forced to speak only to Janis' husband Randy. That was a nice thing, actually, because we work exactly in the same industry. But then a friend of his joined us for dinner and I was often left out of the conversation.

After dinner Randy had to go to the airport catch a flight to Winnipeg, and the rest of us ended up going to a Latvian bar on College (Einstein). The holy people drank tea and the unholy drank beer. We had silly conversations about maps and other stuff, and then Mareks and I left when they started a comedy show that didn't look so promising. After fighting the snow to get back home, we got ourselves warm and started watching this documentary about the history of pride in Latvia: Homo@lv. After that we went to bed.

On holiday Monday the holy guys slept in and lazied out during the morning, and then started organizing and cleaning the apartment in the afternoon. At 3pm we tried to go to Fairview Mall to buy some stuff, but it was closed. We managed to find Shoppers open, as well as a Dollarama and a Chinese supermarket. We then bought some things and walked back home on Van Horne avenue. Once home I finished organizing my papers on the living room, and now I'm free to watch movies and post here =] That's all.

SeeYa,
Feliploko's duspsis.
