More gin for me, then!

Apparently I have cast-iron tastebuds. I've gotten violently ill from too much of one alcoholic drink, and food poisoning from one particular food item gone slightly off, and still consume both without flinching.

Apparently my stomach, my tongue and my brain all have a great working relationship; they've all agreed that, meh, it was just that once, the thing in question is too delicious just to stop cold turkey, and the tongue and brain will just have to be more alert from now on and be ready to halt the next shipment to the stomach the instant things seem hinky.

I'm told the first recorded game involved angry monks. Seriously.

Amy is me. Only I did 14 shots of the stuff one night and cannot even say the name without throwing up in my mouth.

Ugh. Beer. Apart from a good thick stout, preferably with ice cream in it, I just don't get it.

I wonder how to ever find out. Hec!

What cocktails are tasty with gin in them? I should branch out from the gimlet some day.

Oh, let me be Perkins for a moment...what are people's weekend plans? I ask merely because I plan to leave the house for things not related to the ER, which makes the first weekend in weeks. I'm going to try and get my hair cut, see Colin, and do dinner. Complete crazy talk. And then go to the ER.

I've never really drank enough to have a hangover, but too much wine will give me a sinus headache the next day.

Was there ever any doubt? I mean, "hey, let's play bocce! on ice! with frickin' BOULDERS!..."?
