Word association

Last night didn't go entirely according to plan, of course. Went to some party and played more pong, Nick and I continued to play well. Hung around there until around 11pm then went downtown to the club. Unfortunately I forgot my passport and they refused to accept my other forms of ID, even though they clearly show my birthdate. Why is this country so anal?

We weren't there long anyway so I just hung around in coffee shops annoyed with myself. Consolation, I "borrowed" a book on taking travel photos from one of them. Went back to Shaun's place and the five of us (I've so given up on names) and played some progressively stupid drinking games such as complete the sentence and word association, which eventually involved playfully insulting each other in extremely unrepeatable ways. And Elton John for some reason. In fact he keeps coming up, as I'll get to later. Didn't get home until after 5am.

Today me, Nick and his sister drove to his parent's place in Cumberland, about an hour away, and got his car fixed properly (i.e. with something other than tape), then drove back via some poking around in Cumberland, napped (running on 4hrs sleep) and watched a new West Wing episode (squee). It sucks than John Spencer is dead, the show really needs him. Nothing is really happening tonight, hence me being on the PC, and tomorrow looks to also be rather quiet, though we may find a house party or get some people up here, or something. These apartments have too many guys.

Not a lot else to report that isn't self incriminating.

Oh yeah. Put glasses on Nick's little brother and he looks like Elton John. There are photos, everyone be patient, I'm dealing with over 500 of them.
