The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsEnjoying a Knickerbocker tonight.
Same thing as last night, a Delmonico. Gin, cognac, sweet and dry vermouth, and orange bitters. Only without the cognac. Nice!
Feeling much better tonight after a day of camaraderie and joyful protest.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

(1,117 posts)As an introvert, I'm not great with big crowds, so I'm tired. But boy, did we have a big crowd in St. Paul. Nobody listened to the advice to stay away; the response was more like "Fuck this, we're going. No way are we letting them win."
But I've earned the drink. Staying up for Foyle's War, if I can.
