i'm tired, i stink, and i am remarkably content with this. we just got back from genevieve's cottage and i am trying to think of an appropriate entry to mark the occasion. i know that the girls will want me to put up the best quotes from the weekend (and there were many) so i think i will list those at the end.
basically the seven of us (me, taryn, shannon, allie, hanna, melissa and genevieve) trekked up to huntsville in a mini-van for a night of hilarity! the weather wasn't great so we didn't spend too much time outside but we did go for a really nice walk wherein taryn luge-fell and shannon graced us with a delightful view of her crotch. the cottage overlooked the lake and even though it was overcast the scenery was beautiful and serene. although most of us see each other fairly regularly it was a really nice chance to get away from it all and get caught-up properly.

it was one of those trips where it
feels like loads of stuff happened but there weren't too many actual incidents to report back on. we didn't really
do anything apart from eat obscene amounts of cheese and the occasional costumed dance party. we discussed everything from "the downfall of society due to confused gender lines" to the definition of a "dutchie." we used our fantasy tanks to plan out taryn's next air-recorder competition and we ate cheeseburgers in an old via-rail car. there was a massive thunderstorm that woke us all up except allie, who had to have been in some sort of comatose state, and my skittish ways were clearly demonstrated.
i will leave you all with my favourite quotes from the weekend. i actually made notes so that i wouldn't forget anything hilarious but in retrospect i think you sort of had to be there. regardless, here they are:

"to be honest, i think there is a domestic going on in the cheese aisle"
"you had me at choda"
"when you're the cleaner you don't have to cook"
"i'm looking for a prince on a horse with the bill in his hands"
"you just never hear about the homeless jews"
"i've got a big clit - write that down"
"robin dubonte - back in the homeland"
"what's a dutchie?" "either a joint or a homeless person"
"he slept with a thai prostitute" "that's brave"
and my personal favourite:
"iqualuit: the new whitehorse"
p.s. above you will see allie and i killing ourselves over the lists in the back of the mcsweeney's humour compilation; i know i've read them before but "email addresses that are hard to read over the phone" will always be hilarious.
