I continue to be extremely sneaky – my most recent foray into sneakiness was telling my mandolin teacher “Lady Miss Banjola is a GEEENIUS! Heer, I be showink you…” and then I played Tune Away…..
Anne immediately said, “Forward me the link, there’s somebody I gotta play that for.” Ha ha! Then I played her the Tapioca song via Youtube. My extremely low key plans for world domination through music continue unabated. And I met her husband – I only found out last week that he sits in the car and waits for her during her teaching gigs, and I was torn between being appalled and thinking, “aw, sweet!” so I went out and said hi. Then I had a brief lesson and Anne and I shot the breeze for a while (it’s okay, hubby has a book and he’s used to much longer waits, apparently).
I met Kevin, a friend of Jeff’s, last night, and watched the two of them play 2009 EA Hockey (which is amazing, by the way) and found out that housing prices in Kelowna are just as stupid as they are in Vancouver, at least for the time being. Beer and Switzerland Chicken was consumed. Robot Chicken was watched. Jon Lajoie was watched. The hi-res version of Presto! was watched (and, to my unsurprise, I saw things I hadn’t noticed before, including that the rabbit’s name is Alec Kazam). Kevin belongs to a band called Grooveyard but since he’s likely moving back to the island with his wife and progeny, I doubt that band will live much longer.
And I don’t know whether it’s true or not, but Robof9 led me to believe that he was going to try to find me a nice middle aged man. It used to be Single, Straight and Solvent, but these days I’m goin’ for best two in three. What can I say, Robof9 is a man who laughs in the face of the difficult, and by sheer force of brains contrives to elude the grip of the impossible.
