Skullets and Other Such phenomenon

Advanced Warning: This post has nothing to do with Skullets directly but is rather linked to them in an inside joke sort of way. For those of you uninformed, a skullet is similar to a mullet but rather then business in front, party in the back, it is bald in front, party in the back.

I just spent the last two days in Toronto with no prior planning. I had to meet my professor for a meeting regarding my thesis at lunch time on Danforth Ave, and despite the warning for inclimate weather (the giant snow storm which was supposed to last 48 hours and dump 30cm or more of snow) I decided to stick around and see what happened. I managed to do a whole bunch of fun stuff despite no planning. A delicious lunch (breakfast) followed at Futures Cafe with Laura and her housemates, a trip up to Yorkville, hanging with Joe and his OISE buddies in a post conference party, a Christmas party, followed by Curb Your Enthusiasm (Hilarious, Larry David is a genius) and a long long night of chatting with Laura till after 7am. What did we talk about from 2-7am? Life, the Universe and everything. And of course, we talked about nothing. It's strange where your brain can wonder with a lack of sleep. It's like being drunk without the fear of a hangover. Woke up around 1pm today and had delicious meal at the Pickle Barrel and hopped the Go train home. Off to Kingston tomorrow for another unplanned excursion hopefully including much fun and the beloved QP.

What is it about late at night when you're tired, or just when you're with good friends that cause you to be able to talk about anything. You're so much more open at these times. And the conversation can quickly change paths and veer totally off topics. They switch between serious and silly with a drop of a hat. I know everybody has experienced this phenomenon. There's just something about good friends, and the wee hours of the morning that can cause the most intense, interesting and irrelevant points of conversation.

... Unfortunately they also lead to things like reading the dictionary for fun and the ill famed rap of Monnee X featuring Biz Funk & Del Freak.
