Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yay for the new job, msbelle!!! So glad you can get away from notON!boss. I'm sure she has no idea why you'd want to leave her clutches.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think she mostly does not realize that her stressful workplace is mostly her own doing. She is a highly undisciplined, easily distracted, forgetful, control freak. She brings the drama on herself by overscheduling, rushing when there is no need, and challenging people on every single thing. Today she has already called and instructed me to start really double checking on two things because of mistakes that were made. BY HER!

I finally heard back from a former co-worker/friend whom I hadn't seen in a couple of years. I emailed him a month ago, and then mentioned to my boss (a mutual friend) that D didn't get back to me yet. Well, D called me just now and invited me to his house on Sunday for the local 4th of July parade, which goes right past his home. Lots of fun!

Of the 13 they have listed, I have only consumed 4 of them and Vernor's would be dead last every time. Sprecher's - I have had their root beer and I was not impressed, so I wouldn't try their ginger ale unless I lost a dare.

I like ginger in my ginger ale, and I'm not a big fan of soda anyway (too sweet), so I definitely fall on the side of Blenheim's and Reed's rather than most common brands.

Of course, since these days soda is mostly just so I'm not drinking straight alcohol, I'm pretty much a Fever-Tree Ginger Beer girl.

Art Crawl!!!

Congratulations, msbelle!

I'm not a big soda drinker (okay - I am one of those who loves that we can get bottled water almost everywhere)- but ginger ale is one of the v. few that I like. Although, I usually don't choose to drink it unless I have an upset tummy.

I also grew up on Canada Dry.

Yay, msbelle! I'm glad you're leaving CrazyBoss behind.

Kathy, go you with the mad cleaning! I have to finish up my cleaning this morning, as soon as I have a full cup in me.

I stayed up too late watching Iron Man 2.

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

Good onya, msbelle!

I rank Canada Dry as my favourite, but I haven't tried much boutiquey ginger ale. Vernors is disgusting, and is also not ginger ale. But I'm not a traditional soda drinker--I like fizzy fruit juice, but NSM with the traditional sweetness.
