I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

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.

My treat to myself is that I'm leaving work early.

To go to the dentist.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

From above: so, cassava = manioc = yucca?

And tapioca comes from it!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

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.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Does it have monkeys? Because if so, it will be the most perfect thing ever!

No monkeys, alas. Cheerleaders and candles, yes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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!
