( Minor aggravated rant about father and financial leverage )
After that, it was home again, home again, just in time to drive![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lux80 to the airport. She is now safe and sound in New Orleans where she will be starting her new job. I left her there with Prospero's Daughter to see her through customs and whatnot, and returned to my now-empty apartment (except for the cats).
Spent the rest of the afternoon putzing about until it was time to go meetmiseri for afternoon mass, which is still confusing because it's in English. I'm so used to attending mass in French that, while I know what's going on, I don't know any of the responses the way I feel I should.
We went to Buffet Maharaja afterwards to meet up with PACEM, a Catholic youth group whose mission statement is still a bit fuzzy. The food was nice, but I wasn't overly impressed with most of the people. The leader of the group (organiser? I wasn't sure what to call her), Evelyn, was a sweetie, though. There was another translator, and a super nice girl doing a Ph. D. in music at McGill named Colette with whom I got along very well.miseri and I had a very fun and intense conversation about The Neverending Story and how very trivial the movie was. All in all, the dinner was a lot of fun.
Afterwards some of the Lebanese people in the group invited the rest of us to go to Arabesque, a nearby café-type place on Guy where you could smoke shisha pipes as well as get turkish coffee and assorted lebanese food. It might have been more fun had I not been really really tired by then and the music really really loud.
miseri and I called it an early night around 10pm, then stood and yakked on a streetcorner for another 45 minutes about ghosts and Call of Cthulhu before we realised how long we'd been standing there and each scampered for home.
Much fun was had. However, am now zonked. Having dinner with Parental Units and guests tonight, since Girls Night is off while Prospero's Daughter gets her newest tenant moved in.
