Having recently returned to the wide expanses of the Albertan prairies from a two month outing on Canada's West Coast I would like to take the opportunity to share with y'all the encounters with fellow Litherlanders I had while I was out there.
First off, I had the opportunity to get together with Fenris 23. He is a very fine young man who will be going places in his life I am sure. I also got to meet his lovely partner, and together with my partner, the four of us had a lovely evening strolling through downtown Vancouver during which Fenris 23, in an act of lovely generosity, treated all four of us to a yummy sushi dinner.
I later hooked up with Fenris 23 again, and we had a great evening of drinking rum and cokes while hanging out in the larger than your average hot tub but smaller than your average pool type pool that was located in the backyard of the home in which Fenris is currently staying. We spent many hours soaking in the pool while having excellent conversation about a wide variety of topics, although, Litherland was certainly a reoccurring theme in our discussion. So cheers to Fenris 23 for being a fine host, and the pasta that he and his partner prepared for dinner kicked ass!
Secondly, unbeknownst to both himself and I, kid incandenza and I met on Commercial Drive in Vancouver: I sold him a copy of the ‘zine I made from the Surreal Half Hour thread—small freakin’ world ain’t it? So the Man formerly known as Night Guard (a.k.a. eeyore) and I had a spontaneous Litherland Cell meeting as well. I wanted two bucks for the ‘zine, he had a dollar and some change, and the deal was struck. Had I had more time out on the Coast I do believe that he, Fenris and I could have all hooked up for some good times—all stemming from virtual interaction here in Litherland. However, it was certainly cool that the kid and I hooked up through synchronicity and didn’t even know that we had until well after the fact.
To any other (if there are any other) Canadian West Coast Litherlanders: sorry I missed you, and next time we’ll take over the streets of Van with impunity! Until then, thanks Barbelith for allowing me to hook up with people who would otherwise be complete strangers: YARR!
