I’ve done the research. There are no seats left on my departing flight. It looks like I’ll be bumped! I’ll be ready to surrender my seat for $200 and Aeroplan points!

Blog backlog. Not it was not another Honest weekend. So a bunch of us decided to go out the day after Halloween. Not to a club because waiting in line outside in the cold for 45 minutes and paying “Halloween” cover was not our ideal outing. (sorry, I have no nurse or school girl outfits to educe a bouncer). Not to a bar because that’s always the default for any occasion.
A place that’s one part club and one part bar. Yes, we call that a lounge. Alleycatz is a big hit hidden between Yonge and Eglinton, half the drive to downtown. Ten dollar cover on the weekends with drink prices comparable to Maddys. There was a live band and a DJ spinning top40 hits. The crowd there was a bit more mature but not “cougar” status (Nava/Bricks).
Definitely try it out. The cool people do it.
Remember when American Idol was popular and there was that famous Asian contestant William Hung? Well I have a video that can beat that. (The ending is funny too.)
and for memories....
TNA Parade. The one day a year where women can wear whatever they choose and be understood as a 'festive' participant. From school girl to Playboy bunny, its all a big excuse to dress up/down. No complaints here.
There's a lot of hype this year with having Halloween on a Friday. Too many activities at once. Night clubs were cutting guest list as early as 10pm and the average cover was $15. Not as ridiculous as New Year's Eve, but second.
Last year, I attempted to hit a club but after 45 minutes of waiting in line outside in the cold, I gave up. I felt sorry for those girls waiting in the same line wearing skimpy 'costume' outfits without a jacket.
Anyways...
I ended up carving a pumpkin with Cindy and handing out candies. Only less than 10 children showed up. I think my neighborhood is getting old. After that, I watched The Mummy Returns and played Guitar Hero: World Tour on Halloween night. Best time ever. (I still suck at drums).
Here's what I did at work on the Halloween Friday.
