We went to the El Caporal for (e:terry) to have his 28th birthday dinner. He freakin' loves Mexican Food.
Their shrimp dinner was pretty good at cheap. The margarittas were only $2.
I love the mormon in the hood, they are so cute.
The love joy pool is such a crazy style. It looked like that since I was a kid. I don't know if it is really a pool or not anymore.
And yes, (e:terry) did get his xBox 360 elite along with Viva Pinata.

Elmwood Arts FestivalCategory: festivals
The elmwood arts festival is great. Well, at least when you don't live there. I remember living on Lafayette and Elmwood, the stage was right outside our bedroom window. It was insane to wake up to testing 1, 2, 3.
I really go just for the artichokes. They are so good, I have a hard time deciding what kind to get. Does anyone know if these people ahev a restaurant somewhere? I think they are caled "Artichoke French."

Basra Eats and Some Other StuffCategory: pets
Basra loves the occasional snack plum or fruit. Usually he just eats greens so he gets really excited.
About 4 years we made soap. (e:matthew) claims he was not present. Somehow his effigy made it into this soap. You can clearly see his penis floating above us, lol.
I cut my hair off. Before I also cut my beard I looked like a terrorist.
On the not so tasty front, (e:enknot) found this bird on Main Street the other day. I couldn't not take a picture.
Last week Nameless Bitch arrived and found an apartment over on Minnesota.

I am (an) ItalianCategory: heritage
Well just about everybody knows that that is what I am ethnically but soon enough I will be able to really say I am an an Italian when I reclaim my citizenship. I finally got all the paperwork I needed - really in order. I guess it would be cooler if I could say it in Italian - I think it would be "Sono un italiano"
The next step is dragging myself and my stuff to the consulate in New York City and probably dragging my mother and maybe brother along with me. I suggested we take (e:mike) to and make it a Mom and me trip, lol. I wonder if there is a consolute in Toronto I could go to considering I am applying to reclaim my Italian citizenship which has little to do with America. Seems like it should not matter where the consulate is.
I am kind of excited and a little be apprehensive because it opens up so many possibilities as a world citizen.

i'm still just canadian. people ask me all the time if i am a u.s.citizen and when i say no, they think i am illegal, as though there is nothing inbetween citizen and illegal immigrant.
so... will you travel to canada on your italian or us pasport?

It is actually way easier for mom because she just has to prove she never rejected her Italian citizenship. Then we would both get it.

That is so great. You have an EZ out if things get hairy around here ;) You still can't go to Cuba though, it isn't legal for dual citizens either.

Summer in the CityCategory: gay
We went to Summer in the City gay pride festival at Lasalle park today. It was a fundraiser for the ride center but we got free tickets from our new roommate. I guess it is an offshoot project from the old Pride at the Pier festival. We saw lady bunny She was really funny in a I was really drunk and she was really a really raunchy comedian kind of way.
Nameless Bitch and (e:jim) and (e:james) went with us and a good time was had by all. I think the free beer from 2-5PM helped making it extra fun. I saw Chris Parada and Angelo Cicatello and we reminisced about the gay old days in boy scouts troop 225. Apparently, it was way gayer than I thought.
I also realized I met (e:james) once a long time ago. I think (e:flacidness) is the only one who would remember this.
I love (e:jim) and (e:james) they restore my faith in having friends.

Late Happy Birthday. I have been to that place twice and by mistake got the same thing both times it was very good. The funny thing is both times I went the people I went with didn't know how to explain what flavors those colored pops or drinks where so I didn't get one. Terry does look like he is going to go do something with that xbox is Viva Pinata the same as the Cartoon or are they unrelated?
ummm terry looks like hes about to run off and do something indecent with that thing!
Yay! Glad (e:Terry) got a pressie he loves... and had good mexican.
