I'm avoiding the chores, so here's a list of things that I have found recently which are awesome:

Sunset Sounds
It was awesome! chilled out and relaxed when it should be and absolutely insane when it should be. It had a crazy mix of music from funk/soul to gypsy deathcore (more on that later). All in all money very well spent, though it did lack hammond organ (oh and there was this awesome sauted mushroom stand there)

Gypsy deathcore AKA The Barons of Tang
This is one of those things that shouldn't be good but is. When you combine the fact that their major melodic instruments are a double bass an accordian and a tuba it should make a great folk band but then they throw themselves into thrash metal it just becomes astounding. I've also decided that the amount that the intro is chilled out is proportional to the amount that the thrash part is insane.

Tinpan Orange
They have ukulele! very chilled and awesome music. First act we saw at Sunset Sounds sitting on the hill not expecting much from the first act on but they were absolutely awesome.

Cocktail lounges with live jazz
awesome + awesome = Awesome. nuf' said

Hammond organ
pretty much everything is improved by hammond organ, its one of the eccentric yet useful furniture items I am planning on acquiring.

Missile command
one of the other eccentric furniture items. highly enjoyable and addictive arcade game (first played it at Game on! at the SLQ). First heard about it on Chuck in the episode Chuck vs Tom Sawyer (where it is played to Tom Sawyer by Rush).

Chuck
Great TV series that involves spies, nerds and extremely attractive females. Also it has Adam Baldwin (Jayne for those of you not in the know) as a NSA killer. highly enjoyable for all and down right hillarious for those of the nerd persuasion. Oh and it has captain awesome too

Captain Awesome
He's awesome!
