Good Halloween's all-around, then?
I didn't do much tonight except hang out with some people, I was gonna' go to another party but I'm not feeling too hot tonight, and we have a marching band show early tomorrow.
So anyway, I hit it off pretty well with this one girl last night who recognized my costume and started talking to me about how great Shaun of the Dead is. We talked for a good chunk of time before she left with her friends, and it was nice. Hung out with her again today by chance and it was also nice. At the very least I've found a great new friend, and those are always very welcome.
Also, been playing a lot of Rock Band 2, but we only have one controller from GH3 for the 360, because I left all my Rock Band instruments at home. It's tough to share one controller.
But tomorrow my parents are stopping by for the day, and they're bringing up not only the Rock Band instruments, but a couch. Very much anticipating the couch.

Good Halloween's all-around, then?
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HAHAHADHSFHJASLFhsajlkfhaskjf hasd No. I mean, mine wasn't bad but man... For the first half of this day, I went around the city looking for the complete set of Guitar Hero World Tour. There were Rock Band 2s all over the place but NO FREAKING GHWT Apparently, us Canadians don't have the full set. Just the normal Guitar Only one which I gave in and bought. I'll buy the other stuff when it becomes separate. I played it for about an hour... after that I went to my friend's room. Played Rock Band 2 for several hours. I mean it, we took turns switching between 7 people to play the game. And then more people came and went and also played. God, it was fun... At some point we went for a quick Trick-Or-Treating. I didn't have a costume but I went anyway and got candies from the RAs anyway (one of them gave us condoms which will, frankly, expire for me before I ever get to use it). Then we went back to the room and played MORE Rock Band 2. Oh yeah, two of the people in the room are RAs. We also had alcohol bottles in the room, and they did not care even though they have to enforce the "No-Alcohol" rule. They're pretty cool. Anyway, sometime at about 11PM, two guys started fake fighting, y'know, just to have a little fun. The smaller guy grabbed the bigger guy and then the bigger guy basically jumped to get away from the grab. And then the smaller guy fell and broke his wrist. The guy who's pretty much the leader of the group, Jon, took him to a hospital. An hour later, he called saying that they will be three hours before they can get back. He also asked if it was possible that one of us could go to the hospital and give him one of his books that he's reading, and hanged up. Now, he said "to the hospital." There's three hospitals in this city. We had no idea which one it was... but I decided anyway to find that hospital. Luckily another guy said he would go with me. We took a bus to the closest hospital, about twenty minutes of driving. Took the last bus to get to it. He wasn't there. We were at the wrong hospital. Took a cab to get back. And well... that took us two hours to do all of that. It was only five sentences but those five sentences lasted two hours. We finally got back to residence, pissed off that we didn't go to the right hospital but at the same time didn't want to waste more time going to the other hospitals (it was 2:30AM, damn it!). Played some more Rock Band 2 with the few remaining friends and then watched Ghost Ship (which was meh... had some interesting death scenes though). In the middle of Ghost Ship, Jon got back saying that it'll be another 2 hours before the guy who got hurt can be checked out. We explained to him that we tried to find the hospital but failed. He understood but man, he was wanted to get drunk and play Rock Band 2 but now he's volunteering to keep his friend company. He's probably still there as I type this. So yeah, good night gone crazy gone frustrating (for me and the guy who went with me, anyway) and got meh. I actually mixed some vodka into my ice tea because frankly, I needed it. Didn't taste too half bad, but I won't be doing that again unless something else crazy happens. So... not the best Halloween night I had. But definitely the most rememberable.

On Thursday night I was supposed to go see a concert. This band from Japan called Monkey Majick came to Zaphod's. I was meeting people there so I got there at 7, but no one I knew was around. I waited in what I could only describe as the ONE wind tunnel anywhere in the city that night, because while it wasn't really that cold I was freezing with that windchill. Anyway a hour later (and thus a half-hour LATE) Stacey and Shannon showed up and we waited in line. Eventually I heard my name and looked back and this dude I went to high school with that I-now-dislike who dated Jess back then was with friends behind me. I did the usual feigning like for the guy but I didn't have to work hard at paying attention since we were both with other groups. His whole group, like me, didn't have tickets. But my friends did. More people I knew showed up and stuff. It warmed up as the line got longer and people got in between the wind and I. There were like 14 other people that I was waiting to see that I never saw, because eventually (meaning an hour plus in the frozen line) one of Zaphod's guys was like "If you don't have tickets, it's sold out". Like, gr-#####ing-reat. Thanks for saying that online, or on the sign, or earlier so that I didn't waste my #####ing time. So I went home, mad. I played it cool in front my friends, obviously, and they all went in but I was pretty disappointed I didn't get to go and had to wait around for nothing. But I guess it made me look good. On the bus home this girl I went to school with since like kindergarten was standing next to me. I blanked her. She might've blanked me too, or didn't notice me. Either way I gave no indication I noticed her. Then some people got up so I sat down. She sat down next to me. I continued to not notice her but it was weird. Normally I might've talked to her but we're not really friends or anything and I was absolutely not in the mood. And then I came home and all that Ditz the fox business was going on. -- Yesterday, Halloween, I was on the bus to work and I saw Sandra getting on. She's this really hot girl I know from pre-animation and she always comes to the Halloween party every year, but she's weird. I always get a huge impression she doesn't like me (And for no reason, which is something I don't understand, plus I'd know if she had a reason. I'm very real.) and since that started to just not a give a ##### about what she thinks. So I blanked her, or we blanked each other as she probably saw me too. I don't know, or care. To level with you, she's just really weird. Like nice sometimes and a total frost queen others without any indication. I'm done dealing with that. Anyway, I worked the store all day dressed as Luke Cage, which was a very irritating costume to wear all day, so irritating I skipped meals. But people that recognized the character dug it. My boss made his costume the whole day so I did most of the work. After work, I went home showered and changed costumes to my Iron Man sort of thing. Then rushed to Sonia's party. I should not have been driving I was so hungry but I picked up Wendy's on Merivale when I got to the west end and then ate it at the party. Too SO long to get to the party even though I went SO fast. Just had a lot to take care of in a short time. Anyway the girl I had the mutual blank with on the bus that morning was at the party. I was sure she would be but I just didn't really bother with talking to her. After I ate and stuff it was all good. Had a great night, laughs, fights, sighs, all kinds of it. Stayed over, and then Denny's this morning with people. This sounds like I blank people on the bus all the time. Or that I don't like a lot of people. Not entirely true or untrue. Not really, I just know a LOT of people in this city, so I'm always seeing someone whether I want to or not. And then there's strangers who talk to me like they know me... But that's another tale. And I hate that chainsaw man, Vinch.

Alright, so I was planning to go on a hellraise run with Aaron(Someguy), but I couldn't get a hold of him so I just had to blow that off. So I went to a party with a couple of friends, dressed in my last minute pseudo-costume; a devilock wearing punk fiend. Decked out with leather and chains, complete with a kickin' punk rock baseball jersey. The lock was pretty #####ty by the end of the night, but it held up a good fight.
But yeah, once I got to the party we started playing Rock Band 2, which was one of my first tries at the game. I was reppin' the bass, and when I got a 100% mark I started bragging to everybody that got a lower mark, jokingly of course(I was playing easy mode). We started filming some things, like a whole video of everybody in the one Rock Band room, everybody getting their piece in, we recorded a couple other things like me singing some tunes from Mega Man, since I'm known as the total Mega Nerd there. I got my MMZ3 game that I hadn't had for about 4 years now, my friend lost it when I let him borrow it, and just recently found it.
We went out a couple of times, to walk some friends home, on the way back to the house we dropped by our elementary school, where we sneaked in and #####ed around on the jungle gym. I went to the top and pissed down a slide, shouting ##### like "Happy Halloween #####ers!", caused some good laughs. We went back and just started to chill for a bit, the others were in the Rock Band room while a couple of the others including me went to the next room and just talked, had some good laughs. I must've drilled through my friends mini fridge, drank about 50% of all the pop there. We went out a couple more times, and then I decided to call a quits and head home. Over all great #####ing day.
