Weak End

Distractions, Hobbies, Toronto

Friday, I finally got to see the guy doing my tattoo over at King of Fools Tattoos. After a month wait, I get to see… artwork that I helped develop? Nothing new? I was kind of pissed that I had to wait so long to talk with this guy, but he made up for it by showing me some of the work he’s got in the pipe now. I am very, very excited. Then off to Borne Ultimatum. Good movie. If you haven’t seen it yet, or are going back to see it you big fanboy, pay close attention to all the “extras” looking right at the camera or Matt Damon. The thing about filming commando as they did in Tunisia or Piccadilly Station, is that they weren’t too concerned with background wrangling. Or editing out the people taking pictures of Matt Damon with their cell phones.

Saturday SharkBoy and I drove up to Elora Gorge to go tubing. However, it took us over 2 hours to get there and I can tell you I was ready to go tubing… but that wasn’t going to happen due to all the rentals being sold out. So we went to the quarry and swam in water that I can only describe as being “oily”. Nice but I wouldn’t want to put my head under, if you know what I mean. We watched Flash Gordon (Rod! It’s as bad as I remember!) and to say that SharkBoy disliked it, would be an understatement. But I was taken back to Memoryville. I think this movie sealed my fetishism for hairy men. I mean come on… Topol!)

Sunday we ventured early into a mass of 40,000 children to watch “Walking with Dinosaurs” which I thought was very good. Expensive, but fun to see. These animatronic/puppet beasts were pretty cool. However, I think we’re conditioned to have John Williams music swell in our heads whenever we see a dino of any sorts. SharkBoy fell asleep (as did a few parents around us) during the big T-Rex growling ending.

Off to Tarragon to see my brother in Tarragon’s final production of “Terminated”. Ironically (?) I was totally creeped out when Mike was being seduced by his gay boyfriend in the play. And talking about anal sex. SharkBoy said watching the play was like watching me for 45 minutes rant about something.

So that was my weekends. What up whichoo, peeps?

    :S I didn’t know the water in the quarry was oily… yuck! Hehehe, Flash Gordon! Yeah, I am sure it’s as bad as you remember, oh Ming the Merciless! As bad as Flesh Gordon (yes, I sound like a broken record).

    Like a blossom amongst dung.

    Actually some of the houses there were very impressive. I’d retire into nothingness there.
