The radio wakes me up around noon. I get up, hop in the shower then hit the laptop to check email and shit. I find two interesting emails in my inbox. They are from Sarah and Nikki. They each send out an email to the Discoball Z group (and me for some reason), giving us a detailed account on their untimely accident. Turns out, it wasn’t as bad as Liz made it out to be, but it’s still a bitch of a situation. I putter about the living room for an hour, while watching Father Abel macking all the ladies of Vatican….maybe a few dudes too. Then I remember I’m supposed to call up Adrienne to confirm our meeting location before we head down to Liz’s. I do so and return to some more “Trinity Blood”.

At 4:34 p.m., I drive over to First Markham for a light lunch, since it’s midway to the proposed pick-up location. Afterwards, I swing by the Warden and 7 plaza to pick up Adri and we’re off.

On the way to Cameron’s, Adri and I chat about relationships (and how little I know) and she tells me a story about how she was caught in the shower once upon a time, until we pull into the parking garage at Liz’s. We get there at around 5:30 p.m., and thereafter Amanda arrives. The lot of us chill in the living room and bullshit for a few minutes. Liz produces a bottle of ginger pills that were tested on Mythbusters; she then explains to us it will effectively remedy any of her motion sickness issues (and it’s also the SINGLE most powerful weapon in the Universe! I suggest we USE it!!). James shows up in his red ski jacket and make with a brief weather forecast for the cool night ahead, while Liz occupies herself with printing up some E-tickets from the Fear-fest site. Following that, the five of us cramp into my Corolla and cheese it.

We arrive at Wonderland about an hour later, and it is now goddamned nippy out. My passengers get out of the car and promptly zip up their Winter gears and shit, while I zip up my meager hoodie and march toward the front gate to rendezvous with Alex & Amanda (Liz’s friends). After we’ve identified the pair from the crowd, we chit-chat for a few minutes, then I go to take a leak before conforming to the throng going in. James opts to stay behind and wait for his beloved before meeting us inside.

Once inside, Alex whips out his map and begins charting a course for the long haul ahead. First we hit the “Asylum” but the mad house is too packed. We opt for the “sycolone” which Cameron tentatively partake (God Bless Alex and Amanda for laying on the peer pressure). But then she pops a ginger pill while the four of us are in line (Adri opts out), and ride the dizzying pendulum of DOOM! When that’s over, we visit a few lacklustre haunted houses for about an hour (except for one that totally freaked out Adri, and the Werewolf had to take off her mask and see her out), before taking a short break to chow down on some Teriyaki at 10:28 p.m..

From there, we make out way back to peep the “Asylum”, but Adri opts out and decides it’s best for her to wait for us at the exit instead. On our way to the back of the massive line-up, Liz tells me she’s gonna bring Adri in to hang with us while we wait, so she won’t be left all alone. I agree. I tell her to stay with the posse, and I’ll go retrieve her instead. By the time Adri and I head in, the group are already filing toward the entrance. I promptly try to slip back in line, but without success. A cute Wonderland staff pops out of nowhere and cock-blocked me, hence separating me from the rest of the group. “Fuck it!” I tell myself. I’m curious about this house, and I have come so far not to go in. I shuffle to the back of the line and wind up meeting Cameron and the rest at the end. The Asylum has got to be the best haunted house out of the entire park. What can be more amusing than watching 4 people ahead of me dowse their drawers at every corner of the house?

With only an hour before Wonderland closes shop, we visit a few rides, and put those ginger pills to good use. I opt out on the last one (The wooden one that crushes kidneys), since I’m already freezing in my hoodie and mildly dizzy from the last ride. So I head for the nearby Dinner to take a leak and warm up. By the time I head back to meet them at the exit, Liz is gasping for air trying to maintain herself from giving us a peek at her gastrointestinal goodies in front of the whole crew. After she has composed herself, we make our way back to the front gate and see each other off. Liz, James and Amanda ride with Rae, and Adri rolls with me.
En route, we stop over at Richmond Court to pick up some milk-tea, and then I drop her off at her house. I head back to my place, check email, shower, and fall asleep watching Trigun.
