It’s not me that’s finally back in Canada; sadly, I have not yet left the country in 2013. It’s my neighbour/friend-lady who is finally back from holidays in Arizona. I blame her entirely for the deluge of snow currently following. This is what Mother Nature thinks is fun to greet people with after vacations.

But I’m stoked to have my friend and drinking buddy back! She’s been gone since before Christmas, but now I have my night widow back.

That’s her in the background, behind our classy-as-shit Red Rouge wine (rouge because, you know, we’re Canadian. We’re fancy and stuff, and also because things also have to be printed in both languages here). But these are the kinds of shenanigans that we get up to in her townhouse. Tonight will probably be no different (though Kelsey has sworn off drinking Red Rouge ever again). I have strict instructions to be there at 5:37pm on the dot. Never mind that I get off work at 5:30 and there’s a snowstorm going on (see first photo). There’s wine to be consumed! Punctuality is clearly of the utmost importance.
And yes, you are correct: it is only Thursday. For some reason, most of our antics take place during the week, then we recover over the weekend. SO BACKWARD.
