Writers From The Block 10

Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I am going to tell you about Writers From The Block on August 15. First I will start on Tuesday night. Then I will get on to Writers From The Block. I decided to go cause every third Thursday in August we have a Cactus Fest parade and it ether rains or is cloudy the entire day. So instead of waiting to see if it was going to rain and then wait till it hopefully passes, go to Writers From The Block where I have guaranteed fun. Even if it rains. Ok, lets start..

On August 13 I was facebook messaging my sister and law, Cindy in BC and was telling her about the Cactus Fest this weekend. She always wanted to go. She brought up the idea to FaceTime her this weekend down at the festival (Watch my StoryTime Sunday - Meeting Alyssa Reid 4 to hear what the Cactus is). I am plaining on FaceTiming her. Then that night I had an idea. I always tell her about Writers From The Block with my stories & pictures, but never went. I asked her on Wednesday morning if she would want me to FaceTime her at Writers From The Block so she can experience the show too. She was up for that.

August 15 I go to Tim Horton's close to 3pm. After Tim Horton's I was looking for an outlet. I found one at McDonald's. I sprinted for the bus after 5 minutes. Cause the bus was coming at 3:40 and it was 3:31. It takes me 10 minutes to walk. I make it, Squid meets me on the other end in Toronto. I go his place and finish my Grill Cheese I bought at Tim Horton's. I pack my little purse with my tablet (I wasn't going to use my phone to FaceTime and take pictures at the same time). Fast forward to outside of the B-Side Lounge. Oh, right before I get there I wanted to see how far the MOD Club is from the B-Side Lounge from seeing Greyson Chance on November 7th. Yes, Sacrifices have to be made.

Ok back to in front of the B-Side Lounge. I go in and wait for Now to get change for the money. I sit. She comes and I give her my money. I get $10 back. I put the money in my pocket. I talked to Noa for a bit and then saw Valerie. She was one of the performers that night. Then I ended up moving chairs just so when I faceted with Cindy she had a good view. After Valerie and J3m (performer) finish talking he introduced himself to me. Turns out someone dropped money and Brooklyn (Performer) picked it up and gave it to Noa's sister and asked me if I seen anyone drop money. I decided to check my pocket to make sure it was not me. It was my money. I got it back lol. Later when they were done talking Valerie and I had a conversation. When the show started, Valerie ended up sitting with me at the table I was sitting at. 

The first performer was J3M. He got the party started. What I mean is that everyone was standing and dancing and singing along with him. After J3M Elisha came on. When she was on her 2nd song that is when I faceted Cindy. We loved Elisha. Elisha got everyone dancing like J3M did After Elisha we were on break. While on break I took Cindy outside so we could talk (Not saying what we talk about. That is between sisters). When we went back in Valerie was about to start. Cindy loved her, Cindy even wrote "I ♥ U" with a smiley face. After Valerie performed and got off stage she was near me and gave thumbs up to Cindy for the messages. We didn't have a break and went right to our last performance of the night. Brooklxn. I really liked hers. By her 3rd song I decided to take Cindy out to tan to her and hang up. She loved Writers From The Block and wants to come (FaceTime) every time. We are, but not this long. For some performers I really want her to see. If I meet them, she goes off lol. She will hear about it later. Before we hung up Squid and I nk walked towards me and Squid asked who I was talking to. I Just say Cindy. They wave and say hi. We hang up and I go back in. Brooklxn was on her last song and invited Noa, and her sister Elisha up to sing it with her. Again, no one was sitting down. We where all dancing.

When the show was done I stayed to take the group picture. I met Elisha, talked and took a picture with her when I was trying not to photobomb a picture. I even took my first selfie at Writers From The Block (Not to mention the selfie with Michelle Treacey on June 6th. We took that with her phone after we took a picture of us with my phone). After I asked Valerie if we can take a picture together and that I will not forget to post it this time lol. I posted the photo at 8 or 9pm on Saturday August 17, 2019 LOL

This Writers From The Block felt like a family with everyone dancing and singing along. I did forget to say, that this week they had 4 performers. That is why it ended early and Squid, Ink, & I got home before 11pm. And we usually get home before midnight. The next Writers From The Block is August 29th. I might go. Not sure if I can yet. If no, there will be a replacement blog.
