Free Stuff is Fabulous
From football playoffs, to friends and fun times (sorry, needed another F word for alliteration purposes, and I’m trying to keep this blog PG-13) – I had a friggin’ great weekend. Best of all, I got a ton of free stuff. And that, my fine friends, is fabulous.
The free finds first flowed with a friend fielding my invite for a film. For some reason my fledgling rental company thinks I’m a fine customer and favored me with a coupon for a free flick. My fickle friend and I filled our fancy with Moonstruck. If you haven’t fallen for this film since forever, feel free to fit it into your future. Family, feuding, frolicking, funny, and with Cher and Nicolas Cage, no featherweights in the starring roles.
Free stuff continued with a matinee showing of Avatar 3D, a fetching fantasy. No, we didn’t find tickets through Fandango (though that would have formulated a fine F-word tie-in.) Instead, we cashed in a rain check ticket from a film that faltered the first time we saw it. (Not Avatar, something far different. ) Unfortunately, we only had one rain check. Frankly, we should have only gotten one Avatar seat for free. But the frumpy manager was familiar with my frugal friend, and footed the bill for the second seat. Go figure!
I finished my fine Sunday watching football with a friend, eating fries and drinking foamy stout. We also ordered a quesadilla for our fiesta, but the food served to us would have made Napoleon Dynamite fear for his life. Too greasy, and that is felonious! We cried foul, and the friendly freckled female server furnished a free beer. Not just any beer, but a frosty bottle of fourteen-percent alcohol French beer! (It was actually 13% and Belgian, but F rules the day)
Finally, I must bring this fashionable blog post to a finish.
This focused foray of free stuff was funded by the letter F. And no F-bombs were flipped while forming this feeble post.

Adorable alliteration. Might you take my “M” in exchange for your more favorable “F” – consider it a cultural exchange? (You’ll have to pop by my Daily Plate of Crazy to see why, as the linky love is pulling in yesterday’s mini-musings.)

Awesome! Your creativity knows no bounds. I’m so very impressed with you…as usual. And you managed to incorporate a little cultural allusion in at the end. Very nice. A+

Sandra – frolicking with a female may be frequent or farfetched, but I won’t fall for formulating an answer.
Vinomom – don’t you love weekends like that! Free stuff is friggin’ fantastic.
Mama Llama – phonetics count. But the Aints aint winnin’ the Super Bowl. Go Colts!!

I LOVE Moonstruck ~ it’s my all time favorite, reminding me of my own family. My favorite lines: Do you love him Loretta? Yeah Ma, I love him awful :-)

My kid isn’t far from Sesame Street age so I kept hearing Grover saying “This blog was brought to you by the letter F” in my head!! Ugh!!
But, it sounds like it was a festive day, indeed!! :)

I’m so flummoxed, as my favorite F-word was nowhere to be found. WTF? ;-)
