ange & lauren’s big mtl adventure

despite the fact that i still felt slightly under the weather this weekend, it was a good, relaxing, and beautiful weekend. evidence:

- i started off friday morning by listening to the new weakerthans album, which lauren pre-ordered for me and surprised me with on thursday night!
- the weather cooperated nicely on saturday and sunday. a perfect fall day!
- we bought a ton cheap produce and lauren cooked two fabulous meals. sunday’s veggie shepherd pie is a brand new favourite for me!
- she baked cookies.
- i put the finishing touches on an apron and fixed a pillow, sewing it all by hand!
- we went to a party on saturday night even though we were feeling shy and homebody-ish. we’re going to make some new friends if it kills us!
- we wandered around mile end with an old zine friend (and new montreal friend? i hope!), discovered a record store only accessible from a back alley and an amazing graphic novel/comic store!

and things will just keep getting better:
- lauren is going out with a potential new friend tonight!
- we are going to see final fantasy this thursday with a couple new friends we made a couple weeks ago.
- we are going back to toronto this weekend. sadly, i don’t think i’ll see any of my friends but i’ll see my family! and maybe get to meet one of my cousins (first cousin once removed [see cousin definition]) for the first time ever.
- a trip to ikea is in our near future!
