Three Items for your Friday night I went to Duane Reade and bought the three things I need for a perfect Friday night→[More:]1. I bought a new bone for the dog to chew on.
2. I bought some Ultra Biore Strips to cleanse my nose.
3. I bought some Nacho Cheese Doritos. With Stynx at a church conference, it's a Dorito dinner tonight!

What 3 items will your Friday night include?

I have no exciting plans for this evening. I had been really looking forward to an evening at home, but now I'm kind of wishing I was at least going out to dinner with friends or something. But I am not motivated enough to actually make any plans. So probably, my evening will include:

1. The Godfather dvd. I started watching it (for the first time) last night but only had time to watch an hour of it.

2. A little bottle of wine. I was really pleased to see some decent quality wines in those little bottle four-packs at the liquor store the other day. I can't tell you how many big bottles of wine I've wasted because I don't drink it fast enough.

3. I'm thinking maybe sushi for dinner.

We're attempting to make sushi for dinner (for the first time), so my three items to purchase will be:

1. Tatami mat
2. Pickled ginger
3. Fresh fishes from the beach-town farmer's market tonight.

I'm actually looking forward to the shopping as much as the sushi-making and -eating.

Well, my Thursday night included my brand new $2 neon purple matte nail polish that I'm LOVING today. Hopefully my Friday night produces the same satisfaction level, but I'm not yet sure what items it's going to include.

- Probably going to see Iron Man
- Then food shopping

unsurprising, I may need to see a picture of this nail polish. I am intrigued.

Tonight will likely include:
1. school books
2. my computer
3. cheese and crackers

My weekends are super thrilling.

As I just tweeted, Friday after work means beer and overalls. Let's add some TV (which includes snuggles on the couch) and I'm all set.

I can't tell you how many big bottles of wine I've wasted because I don't drink it fast enough.

...buh? Rrrzzzzt? That's cah-RAY-zee!

2. Cash - for ONE drink, since I am cutting down; seltzer after that
3. Gas

1. Boardgames on the patio.
2. Fresh bread for a fava bean crostini thing I've been wanting to try.
3. Maybe an IPA to go with the above (and also with a pesto pasta dish).

I'm pretty happy about this - the original plan was to walk to my favorite bar for dinner and get a few drinks to celebrate finishing my Calculus midterm, but it's so beautiful, I'm excited to sit in the backyard and bask.

Yeesh, TPS, that sounds AWESOME. We don't have a dog to enjoy that bone, so I think I'll substitute BACON for me. So that sounds like:
- a bacon, avocado, and tomato sandwich and Cool Ranch Doritos
- a Biore strip
- rewatching Incident at Loch Ness.

4. Get a facial!

Work has been slow for a few days, so I took today off and went to the mall. So tonight there will be :

1. Goodies from LUSH
2. Lindt truffles
3. Maybe pasta salad. I've been cutting down carbs, but I miss eating pasta.

Um. . .pay your way into the dog races, get all hyped up on the Powerade and Nicorette, and then give those pooches a run for their money!

OK I can't guess, really. . .gonna tell us?

Ibsen.

Which side of the proscenium?

posted by danf 14 May | 15:44

Behind. Except there isn't one.

The cash is for after. But the Powerade Zero is KEY to getting my Victorian on.

1) Grilled veal chops in mint-jallapeno butter sauce.
2) The MacCallan 18-year sherry oak cask single malt.
3) Line 6 ToneCore Verbzilla Guitar Effects Pedal. (or Ibanez Tone-Lok WD7 Weeping Demon Wah Pedal, if I'm feeling a bit fiesty. Probably the Verbzilla, though. My back is out, and Mrs. IRFH is out of town visiting family, so it'll probably be a mellow mood por moi.)

Sperose, I just tried to take a picture of the stuff, and the colors didn't come out right at ALL. This random picture I found online is pretty accurate. I'll try again later, but meanwhile, it's Sinful Colors polish (available at Walgreens) in Dream On.

posted by unsurprising 14 May | 16:44

Ibsen.

I'd never have gotten that.

posted by BoringPostcards 14 May | 17:03

Oooh, I may have to hunt down that polish. Thanks!
