I'm tempted to play hooky today
This morning on the way to work I saw the signs that tell me Veronica Mars is filiming in my neighborhood again today. I mentally run through past locations they've shot in North Park -- Cho's Pizza, Vinnie's office, the Noir film festival theatre or River Stix. I pass directly by Cho's on the way and the signs are pointing the wrong way for the bar so it's either Vinnie's office, the theatre or an entirely new location. I'm tempted to swing by on my lunch hour but as I've learned from spending lunches nosing around when they're filming by my office, it's really kind of boring. I enjoy the finished product much more.
True story. Before I started watching the show I came home one day to find a local, Italian restaurant apparently under new ownership. "Peking duck pizza?" I mused. "That sounds like something I'll have to try." I was incredibly excited because this restaurant is just... bad. Okay, it's been around for 40+ years and it supports three families and normally this would be all it would take to set my liberal, power-to-the-people heart aflame. But this place has one completely unforgiveable flaw -- Canned. Mushrooms. On. Their. Pizza. So I came home jabbering excitedly about the new fusion pizza place. The next day it was all gone and I was crushed and confused. I think it was worth it though for the shriek I let out when I first saw Kanes and Abels.
