Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Does Southern Comfort have a reason to exist aside from regrettable high school memories and, possibly, the invention of curling?

Alabama slammers!

I had one of those for the first time hanging out with megan, Hec and JZ a couple of weeks ago. OMGSOGOOD!

It's my mission in life to convert everyone! I should have ten toasters by now.

Because books.

Dark & Stormys sound awesome. I should get the old man to make me one of those.

Because books.

Weekend plans include: writing, hopefully no more snow (rituals will be performed as needed), and a date with my husband to see Shutter Island. Oh, and making a Viking helmet.

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

I like the Hanky Panky and the Old Vermont

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aren't monks responsible for some liquors? Chartreuse, I think, and probably others. Go team drunk monk!

Frangelico? Or is the 'fra' distracting me? Edit: Just about monks, not by monks.

It's tequila for me. Mexican tequila from Mexico that was Not Good and had a worm that did me in. Now, I can't even hang.

I have always respected the tequila. I fully admit that it is stronger than me.

Also?? Despite drinking copious amounts of them with juliana in SF, I *just* learned that red-headed sluts have Jaager in them! I had no idea! And I still like them!

I like RHSs inspite of the jaeger, even though I can taste it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Frangelico is a monk.

Cool. Gin drinks noted.
