What's everybody drinking tonight? And may I buy you a round?

I'm drinking some Spire hard cider left over from the holidays. Yum!

Got a nice buzz on...

Rough week...

I'm sorry you had a rough week...

Hopefully your nice buzz is helping you now...

Alas, I'm not drinking anything tonight! Otherwise, I would certainly allow you to buy me a round!

Happy New Year, sweetie!

I'm drinking iced tea, Aristus.

But I have some wine left in the fridge -- a buzz sounds good right now.

With generous amounts of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum and fresh grated nutmeg. Favorite Holiday drink.

Sadly, that ginger ale is telling me that I am not mixing the finest whisky my college job can afford me with ginger ale of a compatible quality.

Wheat beer filtered over raspberry puree.

And it's an import (having crossed the TX-LA border line)!

I love Sam Adams Cherry Wheat, and New Years Eve I might start out with a Sicilian Kiss, Amaretto and Southern Comfort on the rocks, say yes and if you like sparkly Friexenet can't be beat.

but I'm saving that for tomorrow night. Just water tonight.

I also got a bottle of Laphroaig Quarter Cask for my birthday which I am also saving until tomorrow.

Sunday is gonna hurt. lol.


(wait, no, I am not killing the whole bottle of scotch tomorrow - that needs to be savored).


But between the Scotch, Tequila, potato vodka and 12 pack sampler of Magic Hat beers that I got for the holidays, I should be well bathed in alcohol for a while.
