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.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
In high school a friend and I drank 3/4 of a bottle of Southern Comfort, chased with a fountain coke. My lips were numb before we were done. I can't even look at a bottle anymore.
You know what else I wouldn't recommend? SoCo and Dr. Pepper. ::sticks tongue out and gags:: It's what the truly inebriated resort to when they run out of rum and coke.
