I could never quite get the hang of Thursdays.

Tonight was a strange series of events.

6:30pm: I went to Bulk Barn to get candy for the sole purpose of comforting my current abundance of emotionally distressed friends because I feel that I'm bad at empathy so I should compensate with mini eggs and gummy bears.

7pm: I went to a coffee tasting with Maegan at her Starbucks to bother her co-worker who was directing it and because we had nothing better to do. Lot of pretentious statements about cocoa and earthiness and smoky flavours were uttered.

8:30pm: We accidentally convinced Reeves to walk across town, because he was bored, angsty, and so high that he pretty much absentmindedly walked across the city to hang out with two girls that he is almost-kind-of friends with, mostly through mutual friends.

9pm: We went to Pita Pit because I wanted felafel.

9:15pm: Since the group of me, Maegan and Reeves didn't know what to do, we got on the highway to Rothesay, realized that we hate Rothesay and turned around.

9:30pm: We drove uptown and picked up Will from tech crew things at school. Will and Reeves together is a force to be reckoned with. They are actually the same person but in different evolutions, like with Pokemon. There were peals of Thom Yorke laughter and tries to give me direction punctuated by them occasionally yelling about their 5th grade teacher who now runs Grampie's Yummy Pizza and makes really great milkshakes.

9:45pm: We drove North and went down a treacherous hill to this sketchy place by the harbour. None of us were dressed for it, there was no light and tons of roots and dangerous things to trip over around. We got to the bottom of the hill.

10pm: Will realized he'd accidentally taken the tech crew keys and would be dead if he didn't get them back, right then. We had risk our lives all over again to walk back up the treacherous hill and drive back uptown.

10:15pm: As we were driving North (again) I told Will and Reeves to stop eating my mini-eggs and they were for people with more current emotional crises than them, but they are both angsty and continued to eat my mini-eggs. Due to some quick braking, there are also mini-eggs all over the backseat of the Jetta.

10:30pm: I finally got Will home and I think that Reeves was only beginning his Thursday night so he began walking who knows where. Will left us with an "I love you all" and Reeves left us with "I don't but I'm warming to you." Maegan and I drove back East wondering how the heck our Thursday night quest to a coffee tasting ended up including Reeves walking across town, Will bringing us on sketchy adventures and aborting for the greater good of tech crew, traveling literally all over town multiple times, and nearly all my empathy candy eggs being eaten in the backseat of my car.

It felt kind of like summer.
