My first weekend of relative freedom

[sabotabby]

Friday: Went over to chickenfeet2003 and lemur_catta's Kitten Kondo to have Thai food and watch Burial of the Rats.

Conclusion #1: All Thai food in Toronto sucks in comparison to what chickenfeet2003 makes.

Conclusion #2: Though I adore Bengals and they are the cutest cats ever, I am probably too slow a runner to ever have one. My God, they're like tiny cheetahs crossbred with monkeys or something. Also did I mention adorable? Lady Jane is also a stunner.

Conclusion #3: You all need to see Burial of the Rats. It's based on a Bram Stoker short story, which is to say that the movie is about the time that Bram Stoker got kidnapped by scantily-clad swashbuckling Russian lesbians and almost cut off his own dong to spite the patriarchy. No rats are actually buried (though one, named Robespierre, gets beheaded by a tiny guillotine in possibly the best scene in any movie, ever), and the rats themselves only bury people in the metaphorical sense. But anyway, it's very fucking funny.

Today: Went over to lienne's for pie (maple-syrup-caramelized pear), anime, and Settlers of Cataan.

Conclusion #4: I have to watch the rest of Darker Than Black.

Conclusion #5: Hah, my friends rock.

Sounds like a great start to holidays.

It was awesome having you here! Man, I love pie gatherings. They are the best. Especially when you attend and crank our perversion levels up to eleven. :D

I got Burial of the Rats on DVD recently, for $2.99 in the big DVD bin at Zeller's (other unsuspected items I have found there for modest prices include Outrageous, Female Trouble, Polyester, and Dream Tower (a documentary about Rochdale College in Toronto)). I got it because it had Roger Corman's name on the cover. I couldn't figure out what was going on! However, I was only half watching it and dallying with a book at the same time. I'm going to have to sit down and watch it with more attention.
