Toronto, Cyndi and The Facts of Life
This past weekend, Chrissy and I drove down to Toronto. We left on Friday while it was storming. It was an awful drive; it started out hailing, and then turned to rain, sleet, and snow. We also experienced thick fog and high winds. We did make it in about 7.5 hours which is expected.
Saturday morning, Chris Defazio, Chrissy and I started off at Cosco.
I bought 2 cookbooks, 3 shirts, cleaning supplies, and cereal; and spent $200. I also bought DVD which was the first and second seasons of The Facts of Life. I saw it and started to remember episodes and characters. I haven’t thought of that show in years and it started to come back like I had seen it yesterday. After Cosco, we made our way over to a mall and shopped. I bought a couple sweaters. On the way back to Chris’ apartment we stopped at a winery and I bought a bottle of Strawberry wine and a bottle of Mango wine. I’m sure that Jeannette, Rosie and I will enjoy them.

Saturday night, Chris Defazio, Katie Anderson-Defazio, Chrissy and I headed to Orillia to check into our hotel, and then off to Casinorama to see Cyndi Lauper. Chrissy bought her, Katie and me t-shirts. The concert started at 9:00 and while we were waiting Ian and his friend sat beside us. They were a bit too excited to see her. The had already watched the concert the night before and knew exactly what she was going to do. They moved to the aisle to get closer to her and when Ian touched her hand he picked up his cell phone, called someone and with much more excitement said “Oh My God…Cyndi touched my hand!” They were fun to talk with though.
A couple of videos from the concert.
Cyndi Rocked!!! Thanks again for coming.

Sounds like fun, with the exception of the driving in a snowstorm part.
Facts of Life eh? I can't remember that show at all and I know that I watched it as a kid.

That's cool that you know Katie. I grew up with her and her sister Chrissy. Her dad did a lot of contract work on my house when I bought it - he lives down the street from me!

Actually Jes, I found out that you guys grew up together when I saw her this past weekend. I didn't know that her dad helped with your house.

I find it really weird that Katie, Heather and I are all married, that Chrissy is engaged and Sandra is living with her bf. It seems so odd. Maybe it's because I feel like I'm still 13 and we are all still in highschool. A kid in an adult life. I'm going to be 26 tomorrow! That can't be right, can it?
