My relaxation experience has been tempered by a soaking wet dog, who just came back into the house muddy up to his armpits - ah...spring.

I hope your evening is more relaxing than mine, now!

The owner has already bought me TWO shots of Ouzo, for being such a good customer. So I'm buzzing very nicely...

I can't remember the last time I had Ouzo...probably back in college. Man, I don't get out enough these days.

Have a splendid evening! Do you have the day off tomorrow?

Fridays aren't like other days...it's like there's light at the end of the tunnel, so you can get through anything.

I've never had Ouzo, had to look it up. Sounds like it's similar to Sambuca, which I have had and like.

Got wasted one night on Alabama Slammers and shots of Sambuca, it was the only time I ever got sick after drinking. I have no idea how I got into my bed that night. It was the only time I got that drunk. Drinking contest.

***my girlfriends were with me, so I know it was them that got me home.

And I'm a nut on Ancient Rome, so the label really appeals to me.

I'll have to try it.

(I've got the bartender looking for the bottle. No luck so far...)

Can I buy you a shot of Lagavulin?

I'm drinking Cosmopolitans and giving myself a home lactic acid peel, and hoping I don't get drunk, drink the lactic acid and put vodka on my face!

Still trying to find the manuscript to Cardenio.

Good luck with that, guys...

Anyway, the upshot is, no dinner & drinking with Will tonight. We'll have to have an early breakfast together on Saturday morning, to cobble together this week's WSTFTD.

Oh, well. Hi, fleur-de-lisa! How are you? Careful with the lactic acid...
