My treat just became joining up with a big ol' group for the Serenity premiere Friday. There'll be dinner (and drinks) before hand and quite possibly more drinks after and, of course, the movie in the middle. It's been ages since I've been to a fannishly big movie with fellow fen.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My treat to myself is that I'm leaving work early.
To go to the dentist.
From above: so, cassava = manioc = yucca?
And tapioca comes from it!
My favorite alteration of this adds a third line:
Dry hands on pants.
I'd forgotten about that one, but definitely of the funny. You see it a lot less often than the 12-year old themed scratch outs, though.
whoever thought tomato sauce should be sweet should be shot, though.
Yes. The cafeteria here at work makes sweet tomato sauce. I've taken to putting salt on any of their italian dishes to try to make up for it, and I normally never put salt on anything except for occaisional french fries (depends on if they need it or not.)
And also: Apple seeds are poisonous; they contain a cyanide compound. However, you'd have to eat apple seeds specifically in quantity to reach critical mass.
I know this due to a G.I. Joe episode where they're lured a giant amoeba creature that was eating everything into an apple orchard to kill it.
Also called "Papa John's".
Ugh. Also, in addition to the sweet sauce, their pizza also tastes peanut buttery to me. So not the flavor I'm looking for in my pizza.
Pity me. I cannot see any movie, not Corpse Bride, not Mirrormask, not Serenity, nothing until this weekend is over. Woe. Truly, I say, this is a tragedy of epic proportions. Woe.

(OTOH, we are opening a "rodeo-porno-circus musical", so life ain't that bad.)

Does it have monkeys? Because if so, it will be the most perfect thing ever!
not a treat but fun...
someone just asked for DH
but they asked for matt mylastname. so I got to say he doesn't exsist.
definatly a sales call- or charity call anyway.
Does it have monkeys?
No monkeys, alas. Cheerleaders and candles, yes.
their pizza also tastes peanut buttery to me
Mmm. Not that I taste what you taste in PJ 'za, but when I make pizza at home, I use peanut oil in the dough. I love that hint.
I understand. When we got the show my bass player and I were all, "Noooo Serenity opening night!" But the opportunity is working out so well in every other way that we couldn't really pass it up.
Really, if I hadn't been talking with a friend about going on Friday for literally months, I'd just see it Saturday!
