'Just Rewards (2)'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Had a great time at The Museum of Jurassic Technology yesterday but the whole place was so baffling that when we three emerged, blinking, into the sunlight we had to add on a trip to the tar pits to remind our brains what a museum that makes sense feels like.
Hee. Was that your first time? I'm sorry you couldn't come with us when I was in town!
First time, yes. We agreed that it felt as though we'd missed "Museum A" where the premise was established and started right in on "Museum B". When we got home we looked it up on Wikipedia and that helped to answer some of our questions. The tea was lovely and so was the borzoi who hung out with us while we nibbled our cookies.
brenda, if we do decide to make waffles, we'll test out the waffle iron this week. Waffles for dinner!
Currently we're headed out to a festival at a Greek church for dinner. I hope it's good. I've been looking forward to it all week.
Her head may go boom over bloke and mate, but I think all of ours went boom with the image of Fay/bloke/mate in a threeway.
Fay, you are completely obliged to create (at the very least) a social opportunity soon with Bloke and Mate and you and Slings and Arrows.
My head has gone boom over the prospect of Fay and two of her smart theater-people friends MST3King Slings and Arrows. The possibility it might become porny is just icing on the fun bits cake.
There's a toddler having a melt-down in the game room right now. His momma is standing there patiently holding his hands while he screams and sobs and cries. I feel so bad for his mom and at the same time I am awed at her kindness and patience with just letting him get it out of his system no matter how long it takes. It's going on ten minutes. I see so many parents drag their kids around and shout at them and threaten them. Much as I dislike listening to this kid's tantrum, I am so thankful to see his mom handling it in such a gentle fashion.
At least he isn't screaming and sobbing in one of the theaters, that's what I always end up with. I love brilliant parent who took a toddler to the midnight showing of Sleepy Hollow and then acted really inconvenienced when her toddler started screaming in terror and sobbing about 10 minutes into the film, and then it still took her about 10 minutes to decide to remove the toddler.
People are not with the smart.

I know! There was nobody using the game room and the machines make and absorb a lot of noise so she'd found possibly the best spot in the building to let him do his thing. They're gone now so maybe he pulled himself together enough to finish watching his movie. I could never be that kind of parent. I'd be the one shouting, "if you don't stop cyring right now we're going home!"
At least he isn't screaming and sobbing in one of the theaters10:30 showing of "Saving Private Ryan". RIGHT BEHIND ME. Babe in arms, and about a 4 year old. C'mon people. IT"S A WAR MOVIE! It was a week or so after opening, and all the reviews were talking about how graphic the first scene is and all. CRAZY!
People are not with the smart.agreed!
Oh I can't tell you how many times I've had this exchange...
customer: I'd like two adults and one child ticket
me: are you familiar with the content of this film?
customer: (blank stare)
me: it's rated R for graphic bloody violence
customer: (cheerfully) that's OK!
It's rated R for the graphic bloody violence.
If you ask me, the Adam Sandler movie is being poorly marketed.
