EPIC SHOUT OUT TIME!!!!!!
What an awesometastic weekend!!! I had such a blast @ FROST that it does deserve the title of epic - meeting so many new people and getting the chance to do my first session as a ler was beyond frickin awesome! Without further ado, I give you the re-cap. HUZZAH!
Friday -
Road Trip to Toronto: Tropic's First Tickling Video, Meeting an Aussie, Korean BBQ, Outfits and Accessories and the Munch
Pick up mopug and TropicThunder and begin our roadtrip. New music = lots of Queen and Journey. Some good Supertramp too, with a Mini-Wheats intermission. (My little story takes place at a tropical villa, I fell in love with a flavour yes it was vanilla, MINI-WHEATS WHEATS WHEATS, I want the vanilla for so long. MINI-WHEATS WHEATS WHEATS, it's high in fiber you can't go wrong. Vanilla flavour mixed with wheat, put'em together they can't be beat. Vanilla flavour mixed with wheat, tastes so good what a treat.) Arrive in Belleville, 2 hours out of Toronto, = lunch break plus Tropic's tickling video - for three minutes she hated me and mopug.
😀 Tropic was so full of brilliant win. Arrive in Toronto and take the Don Valley Parkway, IT ACTUALLY WENT FAST THIS TIME - FIRST IN OVER 5 YEARS!!! Arrive @ Josh's, meet Tay (Awesomeness) then make our way towards Yonge to meet SydneyMermaid. (Go Family Guy quotes) Then go to Korean BBQ - MMMMM...MEAT! After meat, but before Just Desserts I went with TropicThunder and Josh's friend Tay to get Tropic a lovely get-up for the play party on Saturday. There as well, we feasted our eyes on an amazing item for another person but I'll divulge that later. At Just Desserts I met manynew people: Cokecan, Skulls, SuSue, among others. Had shots with Tropic before the man, leafstk, arrived and they had Appletinis.
😛 After a long subway ride and a stupid bus that took forever (sorry brother, we should've taken the cab) we got back to Josh's before I brought mopug to his sleeping place then I headed to my dad's to sleep.
Saturday -
The Play Party: I IZ A DM, Snail's gift and Tropic's get-up, The Auction and influencing the odds, Meeting more people and my first official ler session.
Woke up to a dorrbell... (locked my dad out, shit balls oops sorry) Said hi to my dad and watched some soccer with him before leaving to join Snail and the others at their brunch. Arrived at Pickle Barrel as the brunch ended then Tropic and I left so she and I could do some Father's Day shopping for our dads. Went to The Source, got a new mic then we left the mall for the play venue. Stopped @ Tim Horton's for Tropic, THERE'S A FUCKING BASKIN ROBBINS BESIDE THE TIMS!!! I'M GETTING SOME ICE CREAM. Departed for the play venue where I met more people: c7 assassin, yosamedisam, Bucky Sureshot and saw TPT and Tickle Emperor for the first and second time since NEST. Registered with Snail and got my DM credentials - a green wristband. Lamashtu arrives - massively huge hugs! Got my 5 auction tickets, found out that tickets are $1 for 5 extra... time to influence the odds. Mopug and I go to get money to influence odds. $40 worth of tickets - many given away to lovely ladies to influence who they want to pwn and the rest was to influence odds for me - it did work! Snail begins going over the rules for FROST, I went to get his gift - a pink feather boa for his chaps outfit;acquired the previous day when Tropic's school-girl ensemble was purchased. Under guise of a gift from everyone, boa was presented to Snail and pics of Snail and Tropic were had, MANY PICS!!! Drinks and shooting breeze when auction begins. I win - TPT and tickle-me-rosie, Lamashtu wins me. We begin session with TPT - her suspended to the rig with Snail and myself tickling her. Snail almost suffers concussion due to Trailer Park Tornado's thrashing - OKAY FOR THE SAKE OF YOU GETTING THROWN AGAIN AND ME LAUGHING AT YOU, I'LL HOLD HER NOW! Busted out the silicone lotion - drove TPT to madness where she couldn't finish. (What a trooper, why was Snail getting launched the funniest part of that session?) More mingling and food, DMing Snail's session with Tropic, tickle-me-rosie, Lamashtu and Ninjette as lers. Long 15 minutes, relentless lers and a DM with a knack for getting good pictures - WHAT'S WITH ALL THE POP CULTURE REFERENCES DUDE? More mingling - Dogg defeats Beast in lair, wins title, relinquishes title to Beast, Snail defeats Beast in lair, wins title = no soiling of the Josh name on this day!! Session with tickle-me-rosie - full of awesome WIN!!! Needed safety deposit box from mopug... Tropic and I are lers - YES I FELL FOR IT BUT BE VERY AFRAID OF ME NEXT TIME ROSIE!!! Had an awesome post-session talk - good friends we have become.
😀 Tay got suspended - WE GOT A NOISE COMPLAINT FROM HER YELLING LAUGHTER! Late night - session with Lamashtu didn't pan out. I OWE HER A SESSION AND I WILL HOLD MYSELF TO THAT. Said goodbyes to all, drove Bucky Sureshot to Ajax station before driving to dad's to sleep.
Sunday -
Father's Day: Breakfast with friends, CAT HAIR, final pictures, and road trip home.
Got up, heard my dad's friend's dad downstairs so went to say hi, watched more soccer with my dad and gave him his card for Father's Day. Said goodbyes to him and met up with friends at play venue to help clean and take down temp-gazebos. Went for breakfast, Snail mentions incident during session involving getting hair in his mouth - ROB HA...CAT HAIR!!! RO... CAT HAIR!!!! CAT HAIR!!! Walk back to venue to finish take down, said goodbyes to every one and one final picture. Mopug, Tropic and I begin making our way back to Ottawa. More road trip music along the way - closing thoughts on FROST in 7 minute video clip. More pictures of us 3 by Tropic - well most of Tropic's feet like the drive down.
😀 Mopug and I tickle her crazy during drive - we give her a long break then completely destroy her for almost 15 minutes. WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM!!! Drop Tropic off, forget to give her her shoes. (if only I knew what would happen in the future..sorry
😀 ) Drop mopug off, thank him for coming and glad he had a good time - ya did good kid, awesome attitude! Then drives home for me.
SHOUT-OUTS
evibard and Susue - It was great to see you again my friend evibard and a pleasure to meet you Susue! Thank you both for putting your place up as the venue for our shenanigans. I can't wait to see you again.
TPT - I would have thanked you in the box with evibard and Susue, save for the fact that I won you in the auction and that deserves it's own box! Very sexy maid outfit, you are one hell of a strong lee but the rumours of your extreme ticklishness was confirmed. I had a lot of fun tickling the bejeezus out of you and it was awesome to see you again from NEST too! LONG LIVE THE LEGEND OF THE TRAILER PARK TORNADO!!!
Tay - It was awesome to meet you and Kelly! You two are really cute together though we lost you a few times at moments between Korean BBQ and Eaton Centre... Great idea we had with the boa, and thanks for helping with the execution. Did you have fun being suspended? 😀 Take care and I hope to see you again real soon.
Kopfhorer - My friend it was a real pleasure to meet you and I'm very glad you had fun with your session! You seemed nervous and/or anxious going in so I was even more glad that I talked to you err revealed Tropic's weak spots. 😛 As the night went on you definitely appeared to become far more comfortable with everyone there so I must concur with Snail's assessment! Here's to the next munch or gathering I see you at - don't be a stranger. You are a good man!
Bucky Sureshot - Dude, talk about the ultimate in random awesome! You started out the night intending to go see your friends but you ended up with Lamashtu and our party where it definitely looked like you had an awesome time. Epic chats out front and on the way back to Ajax - I am definitely looking forward to talking to you more over the coming while. Take care Dash.
Cokecan - It was great to finally meet the owner of the hard drive that Tropic wanted to rape - that was how I knew you. 😛 I definitely appreciate the type of work you do given that I took Law in University and Police Foundations in college and have a great amount of respect for you. To add to our conversation at the end - I think spirit is a fickle thing: it can come and go as it pleases but I don't believe that it truly disappears. One usually must focus on the rigours of their day to day life before they can let their "spirit" come out to play. Get your arm healed and then see. I hope to see you again my friend.
Skulls - It was a pleasure to meet you good sir and I hope your car sitch gets figured out properly in your favour. Sounded you like you had fun with Sydney and with Tay during your sessions and you were a lot of fun to talk to as well both at the munch and the party. Talk moar soon buddy!
Sydney Mermaid - HAIL SATAN FTW!!! Honestly thought that old pusher was going to start chasing us. It's awesome that you came all the way from Australia to our humble abode and I am also very happy that you came with us to the munch and then to the party - you sure fit in super well and seemed to be having too much fun sessioning with Skulls. 😀 I hope I get the chance to see you again before you go back...or maybe you'll stay! 😀 YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT'S FOR - A SEXY PARTY!!!
ModusTollens - I didn't get too much of a chance to talk to you at the party but given who you had 'lering you I would believe that you had an awesome time! Hope to talk more the next time we meet. Take care
Mopug - ROAD TRIP BUDDEH! Nothing like a little Queen, Journey, Mini-Wheats, David Bowie and Daft Punk to accent an awesome road trip. Thanks for helping out with the video in Belleville - THAT CLIP IS THE SHIT AND WE ALL HAD FUN DESPITE WHAT ONE PERSON MAY SAY!!! 😀 Your safety deposit box will put fear into many lees at future gatherings without a doubt. I'm glad you had an awesome time and you fit in very well - particularly with TPT. 😀 Take care sir and cheers to the establishment of a munch scene here in Ottawa, my friend!
c7 assassin - It was a pleasure to finally meet you after all this time - you were one of the few I hoped to meet at my first munch or at NEST. Though we didn't get an overtly good chance to talk - you were a lot of fun to listen to and I still stand by the notion of smokers being better conversation then most non-smokers. Take care sir and talk to you soon.
leafstk - MY LEAFS FAN BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER! It was an absolute pleasure to meet you at the Munch and although we didn't get a lot of time to talk, I definitely had a lot of fun and I think Tropic would say the same! Until next time my friend.
tickle_me_rosie - LIES!!! It was so cool to meet you and I think we had a good time as the night went on...yeah I may be a bit gullible but I am clearly sadistic and not gonna fall for your LIES again. 😛 You and I must ler Tropic at some point! Thank you so much for the session and sorry for bruising you - it was all out of seeing you have a tremendous amount of fun! 😛 I am sure one or the both of us will see you again before the summer is up and if not, we plan for November! Talk moar really soon kthnxbai!
Hipnosis07 - It was a real pleasure to meet you, oh person of similar height to mine. We didn't get much of a chance to talk at the Munch but we made up for it at the party - both out front and when you DMed my session with Rosie. IT WAS ALL ABOUT THE MINI-WHEATS! SWEET-ASS SHIRT YOU HAVE THERE!!! Hope to see you again soon.
Tickle_Emperor - HAVE YOU MET CRYSTAL BEFORE? 😀 Beyond epic buddy. It was great to see you again - just as giddy as you were @ NEST. WHAT'S THIS SHIT ON MY PANTS? = FUCKING HILARIOUS! Always great to see you sir - now it's just a matter of getting you out to Ottawa for a weekend to see the sights!
Lamashtu - *HUGS* YOU ARE THE AWESOME!!! I still feel bad that we never got our chance to session...I'm curious as to how you want it to play out. 🙂 Epic photo-skillz of Snail and Tropic in their costumes with accessories. 😀 You and I should have a rematch sometime, though if you can't beat a Snail you probably won't be able to beat THE MOOSE! 😛 I seriously can't wait to see you again and I hope I get the chance before you head out east - one last awesome hug, promise? COME TO OTTAWA TO VISIT!
Snail Shell - MY SAME NAME BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER - US JOSHES STAND UNITED FOR FUN, JUSTICE AND DETERMINATION - WE ARE THE LUCHA KINGS, NO BEAST CAN DEFEAT US! OUR NAME REMAINS A SYMBOL OF VICTORY! Dude I know how much work and anxiety you put into getting FROST going - how you were afraid it would turn out like the first NESTs. Look what we got, the epic win of the 1:1 ratio! It was all your hard work and determination, along with evibard and Susue, that brought it all together into one weekend of epic kick-assery! From the moment Team Ottawa arrived to the moment we left, the whole weekend was facilitated by you. TROPIC MENTIONED IT IN PASSING AND TROPIC AND TAY GAVE ME THEIR BLESSING BUT THE BOA WAS MY IDEA TO GET, LOOKS GOOD TOO!!! *snicker* Getting launched into the suspension support was funny as hell once we determined you were okay...LOTION? LOTION!!!! *nods* See, I kept my mouth shut during your session but got some awesome photos - POP CULTURE REFERENCES FTW. I know for a fact that I will see you again soon my friend, whether in Toronto with the gf or here in Ottawa for Tropic's b-day. Until next time, same bat time, same bat channel!
and last but good god not least.
TROPICTHUNDER - Holy fucking ass-crackers you're one of the most awesomest people I have ever met! YOU WERE SUCH A TROOPER IN BELLEVILLE AND YOU LOVED IT, DO NOT DENY THIS!!!! Awesome picture taking on the way down and back up - epic foot pics. You are amazing for putting up with my shenanigans on the road trips. I saw the look in your eyes anytime you were in the vicinity of Snail - that twinkle. C'est l'amour!!! 😀 Shopping for the school girl ensemble - whoa there Bessie, wide-heeled sandals iz what you needed and you looked damn good in em too. WAIT GUYS, THAT BOA...TOO PERFECT TO PASS UP. $40? SOLD!!! The Munch - great drinks were had, another set of martinis and AARON!!!!!! You had the hawt going at the party with your full costume and those pony tails were awesomely priceless! Thanks for going along with my elaborate "Give Snail his boa" plan - didn't it work to perfection? I HAZ AN ACTING TALENT! Watching you pwn Snail was hilarious because I could see in your eyes your extra level of satisfaction above and beyond the normal - captured in the pictures. 😀 Where would I have been without your much more needed assistance than I expected in sessioning with Rosie! WE NEVER GOT OUR CHANCE TO SESSION THERE, POOEY!!! Good breakfast, tough goodbyes but a great final road trip home. WE MISSED THE BIG APPLE AGAIN, DAMNIT and WE ARE NOW ON THE 416, 15 SECONDS TO PREPARE YOURSELF...OH FUCK IT! If anyone had asked me even up to 6 months ago if I would become best friends with anyone in a short period of time, I would have said no since it takes time for trust and rapport to develop. Then I met you and that statement was thrown on its head. We've known each other for under a month and yet we have become best friends in that time - not afraid to bear our souls to each other, we trust each other with our lives and we are there for each other. We've had so much fun together in our short time that I can't wait for more and the future - you are in an awesome place now so start to live your life the way it should be lived, truly happy and free! I can't wait to see you again, though I know that it will only be a few days to a week away! Don't ever forget my best friend - you don't have to be afraid to tell me anything, I am there for you in any and all respects and smile! TALK LAWTS MOAR KTHNXBAI. 😀 KAMIKAZE!!!!!!
My apologies if I have forgotten to mention anyone - lots of people to thank for a great time!
Cheers, to the success of FROST 2010 and the challenge that awaits us all: the one-upsmanship of FROST 2010 with FROST 2011 and beyond, a daunting task. LET'S GET TO IT, OOH-RAH!
