    Tim Hortons of four years ago: My dad and I would always go to Tim Hortons after our piano lessons, where we were greeted by friendly service and a wide selection of yummy food.
    Tim Hortons of today: My dad and I went to Tim Hortons after our piano lesson, where no one was out front. My dad had to peek into the kitchen five minutes into our wait and alert them that we wanted to buy stuff. My dad ordered chicken stew, which they were currently out of. However, the cashier was unaware of this and ended up taking our money anyway. Several minutes later, her manager alerted her of the chicken stew situation, and it seemed to take some time for the predicament to process in her brain. Finally, we were officially informed of the problem, and my dad actually had to request for our money to be given back. He finally got chicken noodle soup instead. As has been the case in recent visits, they forget to give us rolls with our soup without our request. And my dad’s water tasted funny.
    My donut was yummy.

    Boba Fett macking the ladies and my obscure Interlochen-related subtitle have been replaced by new stuff. I figured it was time for change. General Zod and Kevin Smith have played a big role in my life this summer. The fact that I’m currently wearing a Superman hat Silent Bob-style is a testament to this.
    Speaking of Silent Bob, Matt and I saw Jay and Silent Bob strike back for the third time tonight. Yes, third. Did you know that Banky’s hat says “Snootchie Bootchies, Bluntman”? Or that in the convenience store where Jay and Silent Bob beat up the dude at the end, the sign says that if you look less than 27, expected to be carded when you attempt to purchase alcohol? Yep. Sad thing is, that wasn’t the only Kevin Smith movie I saw today. Matt and I rented Chasing Amy again. Whoo.

    Built to Spill was freaking amazing. I was standing right in the center, four people back from the front. They closed with Freebird by Skynyrd! That was loads of fun. Freaking amazing.
    Funny thing, though. I get to the Newport Music Hall, and the marquee says Built For Spill is playing…

    Whoo! Northwestern is 1-0 after defeating UNLV 37-28. The next game, in Evanston against Navy, will be extra special cause I’ll be there. Yay season tickets.
