Does anyone know of a way to save session cookies for later use (ie. for load into curl).

Yes, I know this is not the design of session cookies, but nonetheless, looking to see if there is anything already out 
there.

ie. firefox plugin, any proxy tools that do this (paros, webscarab), etc.


Well, WebScarab (and Paros) will let you see what the session cookie value is. From there, simply copy and paste it into a file in the right format for curl to use, and you should be set.
