I've been checking up on news and I noticed this link from the ShackNews (along with the latest babe hunt - apparently the "last" one wasn't the last) was a news story stating that people who have vigorous regular sex can stay young! What do ya think?
Oh, I should probably talk about lunch. The plan was to meet downtown at noon, so I decided to head out of the house at around one, drive down to Kennedy station, hitch a ride on the subway, and make it there with a few minutes to spare. No problem. I drove down to Kennedy station and turned into the parking lot and.. waitaminute. Why are the gates closed? I sat there in the car in the middle of the driveway into the parking lot wondering what the heck was going on. The TTC generally opens up all of it's parking lots at nine (access to the parking lot is reserved for metropass owners beforehand). Looking around for some help, I saw a sign to my right. Skimming over the notice, I saw that the parking lot was opened to the public at.. 3 PM. Three?!? When did they change this? I only had forty minutes to make it downtown and I wasn't planning on driving all the way. (Nor looking for parking down there.)
Okay, okay.. this is not a problem. Take a deep breath.. *breathes* I could still make it to Warden station (the next station down) and park at Warden Power Mall. (What a silly name, it used to be called Warden Woods, but I guess it sounded to wimpy or something.) Turning out of the driveway (I've been making a fair number of u- and 3-point turns lately) I headed to Warden station. I got there in good time, and drove into the parking lot. I saw a big sign over a small stairway,
To Subway
and proceeded to park my car near the stairway. Then I noticed another sign posted in front of my parking spot,
This parking spot is reserved for customers only. Time limit of two hours.
What the.. Curses! What can I do? The TTC parking lot for Warden station was right next to the mall's parking lot, so I took a gamble and headed there. Turning into the driveway, I noticed that the gates were open. Looking at the sign posted at the front of the driveway, I saw that the lot was opened to the public at.. nine. *blink* What the heck? Why did they change the time for Kennedy station? I guess too many people were parking there or something? In any case, I found a spot in the (very big) lot - it wasn't hard, there were plenty of spaces available - and walked to the station.
I made it to the predesignated meeting place with a minute to spare. *wipes brow* (The other party, on the other hand, was a couple of minutes late =)
Lunch was good, although my pasta was a little on the dry side. They were a lot faster than the last time I was there, but then again, I might've been carried away with talking and didn't notice the time fly by..
Oh, it also seems as if I've got two people hounding me to buy new pants. *looks down at ripped jeans* Come on! It's just a little ripped. It's still good! It's still good! Besides, I don't look like too much of a slob do I?
As some of you know, I'm pretty bad at finding places to eat downtown, so I'm wondering if there are any good places to eat near the Eaton Centre?
Oh, last night while I was introducing myself to people at the broomball thing (which was good, Squishy, you should come out!) one of the guys there wasn't able to catch my name.
"What's your name?"
"[QYV]."
"John?"
"[QYV]."
"I'll just call you John anyway."
*sigh* My name isn't THAT hard to remember is it? (Then again, I might just be mumbling it as always..)
Alright, I think it's time to go check out this new babe hunt..

Ripped jeans? Are you wearing them with white socks?

I personally think that the best places to eat are in and around kensington market. Variety, quality, and quantity! I also have a bias for vegetarian places. :)
Jumbo Empanadas - South American (chilean) patties, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside.. $3 each - plus other goodies. Augusta and Nassau.
The Roti Factory - Big yummy roti (jamaican patties) rolled up like yuletide logs. :) Can be super spicy, but there are milder options. $5 each (plus a salad). Soft shell on the outside, curry/potato/veggies + any kind of meat if you are into that. Baldwin west of Spadina.
The Buddhas - Yummy chinese vegetarian dishes. Big portions. Cheap! Dundas east of Bathurst
Pizzabilities - gourmet pizza on a thin crust. Mmm. I'm not a pizza fan, but this place is great. $2.75 a slice. Kensington street south of baldwin.
The King's cafe - veggie place, interesting food, but a bit pricier.. nice ambience. Augusta south of Baldwin.
Lucky Dragon - this is about the only place in Chinatown that sticks out in my mind.. it's got a pretty good eggplant dish. :) Spadina south of college.
Okay now we are heading east-er... I have two more favourite areas: Queen street west near john, and Bay and Dundas. No time for it now, though.
Funny, I've never really liked Bloor that much!
