Because, yes, we *should* work it into the language.

So, nestra and I are planning a theatre weekend in New York sometime this spring. We want to see Avenue Q, Assassins, and The Boy From Oz.

Nestra: Do you have an opinion on prices for Boy From Oz? 101.25, $81.25, $71.25, $61.25
tzikeh: I will pay what it takes to be close to Hugh's butt
tzikeh: the limits are yours
Nestra: Hee.
tzikeh: I prefer sitting closer and more center at any cost, but I know other people don't want to spend hundreds to "see the same show"
Nestra: Hee. We could sit front row for $251.25 each.
Nestra: Plus service charge.
tzikeh: well.
tzikeh: ok.
tzikeh: that's a bit ridiculous.
Nestra: Not even for Hugh Jackman's ass...
tzikeh: there's a difference between "expensive tickets" and "gouging the public"
Nestra: That needs to be worked into regular conversation.
tzikeh: :D
Nestra: "Not even for Hugh Jackman's ass would I have taken that job."
tzikeh: like "Not for all the tea in China"
tzikeh: yes
Nestra: "You couldn't get me to visit my mother-in-law if you offered me Hugh Jackman's ass."
tzikeh: bwee!!

Spring Ahead. Bastards.

Don't forget to turn your clocks forward one hour this Saturday night / Sunday morning, if you do the Daylight Savings thing where you live.

I'll be over here, napping at odd hours for the next week...
