Yes. I went on a slight blogging hiatus for a while there. It’s amazing that if you miss a week or two…it just seems way to overwhelming to go back in time and remember everything. So this is going to be an Über quick May update.

May 7^th:

Completed my 2^nd Sporting Life 10K. It actually was my 2^nd 10K ever…..actually my 2^nd time really doing any kind of long distance running. I actually managed to run for the entire time (‘cept for when you grab those cups of gatorade…I can’t manage to run and drink at the same time yet) and finished the race at 1:06 which is almost the exact same time as last year. I guess you need to practice to improve your time!

May 8^th:

Realized running 10Ks when you don’t train isn’t a good idea. For sure felt the pain.

Tuesdays/Wednesdays:

Spring Outdoor Ultimate has begun! For sure wasn’t physically ready for the WAY longer games and WAY bigger fields. We should be in top shape by the time the summer season kicks in. We’re on a bit of a losing streak which is getting me a bit mad, but we’re still adjusting. The biggest pain is not playing downtown anymore and having to drive during rush hour all over the city to random fields but I guess the sun and fresh air makes up for it.

Bacardi Breezer Party:

Belizean dancers, rainforest décor, swimsuit fashion show (co-ed!)….and well….free Bacardi breezers. How could you go wrong? I guess I didn’t manage to convince FTs Glen Baxter to bring me into the professional MC circuit…but I did get to see Luen read a male model’s chest tattoo as if it was written in Braille….so it was a successful night.

May13/14:

Toronto Ultimate Festival. Two days….Six 1.5hr games…no wins…and way too many bananas and bagels. I ended up playing on a friends tournament team. It’s amazing since every player was really good….but since we had never played together the team dynamics were lacking. We had some good sun though and I’m finally starting to lose my winter pastiness.

May 13^th:

Birdie’s Surprise Bday Rooftop BBQ…..and like Lu said….there was no surprise or BBQ…but considering my body was pretty much shut down already from the tournament it was good it was a chill night.

May 14^th:

Mother’s Day Sushi Dinner. An all-you-can-eat place never wins when it comes to my family!

May 18^th:

How hot can you go? Edwin being on his recent Sri Lankan obsession got the crew to head to what supposed to be the hottest food in Toronto. It surprisingly sat pretty good in the tummy and even though I thought I was done in going with Edwin, Dean and Eric I managed to leave still feeling “comfortable”

So that’s the quick update. Last weekend started off with Da Vinci code on Friday…which I have to say the post-movie pictionary was a lot more entertaining than the movie itself. Tyler’s got to work on making his cakes not look like factories though. On Saturday I was a suck…and bailed on the Toronto island outing. It was so windy and chilly and I had to work on our TLC costume for the 90’s party. Pretty lame. The 90’s party…well…the photos explain it all so I’ll have to get those posted somewhere. Sunday was Alicia’s Bridal shower…so loads of finger sandwiches…giggling ladies…and sexy lingerie. Monday rounded out the long weekend with some shopping and Pho in Kensington followed by an ice-cream social and light film.

This week is going to be a quickie….since on Friday I’m off to Vancouver!! So excited to visit the old hood. Meeting up with Greg and Craig for some bzzr, Rachel’s Grad Family Ball, Grouse Grind, Salmon & Granville Island Lager….mmmmm. Then Lu and I drive down to Seattle (hitting up choice outlet malls on the way!) to meet up with Karen for the week. (and do some business!) Got a big memorial day party on the Monday and then interspersing some spa time….shopping….chatting….kayaking….between all the “work” meetings we have. It’s all fun and games until I have to take the red eye flight back on Friday night and be ready to go to Alicia’s wedding on the Saturday!
