Well, we didn't get drunk enough to qualify for this thread, and we didn't post anything too stupid, but Nature and I shared a couple of beers last night. And he made some good real-time sushi-eating posts.
Good to see the Arizona boy again, even if he has deserted Tucson for Boulder.

Still working on that bottle of wine from last night. {sigh} No hottie to share it with.
But getting ready for caving next week, Plasti-Dipping all my stuff back together.
Last sips of wine disappearing, may be onto margaritas soon!

it's a tea and cookies kind of weekend... :)
though I did have some NICE bourbon last night.
Just went through the anchor thread and geez whizz, it gave me the tingles...whew! And sheesh, was trying to deny this rampant addiction to fun with hardware, ropes, and high places. You folks aren't helping!
It's all about 'good enough'
I'm not out climbing because...I'm making my rent check..whoooo!
Cheers

Well,
it was sooo tasssteee!
So I measured myself out about 2-3 ml, a splash really, into a shot glass and sipped.
Soooo GOOD!
I've always loved the taste, so I've discovered that I can't drink, but mmmm, it's nice to wet the lips...and maybe sneak a mouthful, ha!
I'm discovering that I've been liking the carmelish, honeyed sweet whiskeys that have a nice long sharp bite to finish.
And I haven't even tapped into the Sakes!
Cheers

Wow! Two to three whole millilitres! That's a full tenth of a shot! Look at you, living dangerously...

You know, you aren't the first person to tell me that...
Maybe that's why no one will climb with me...heh, cause I'm living dangerously!
More realistically I know, it's cause I need/love the monies a bit too much to just let it all go...sigh.
One day!
That wine gone?
Cheers

I thought Margaritas were for breakfast?
Time for a bottle of good dry Prosecco - the girls insist on it so I'll relent.
It also seems a propos having just been to the Caravaggio show at LACMA.
Man, that dood probably knocked a few back in his 39 years.

I thought Bloody Mary's were for breakfast? Margarita Time surely comes later?

A striking resemblance! He looks just like a piss-stained hack!
What if we reached 2000 posts on the Friday night post, but on a Saturday night??
I just googled "piss-stained hack" and I didn't even come up?! How disappointing is that!

As Santa said once,
"Pass the Glenlivet."
Ah...
Been out shopping and am done! Shopping is not fun, mostly, for me, so I save my Christmas shopping for the last week, enjoying the sh#t out of a binge, knowing I won't have to do this shyte again for twelve months...
I'm not a humbug. I enjoy giving, just hate shopping. I had a better time of it this year than any other year except when Bevin was turning one, the day before Christmas. Toys R Us and us took care of @ $100 that first Christmas, and the only thing Bevin really approved of was the ugly Bigfoot doll I chose. They were the same size.
I walked today, all over town. Post office, hat store, Frog Shop, book store, realty office, notary public, coffee shop, bank, and donut shop. It's an odd list this year. The schlepping of boxes got me down because of my asthma, but I am tough and continued at a reasonable pace. It was pleasant not being in a mall for once, enjoying the chill day.
It's December. There is a moratorium this month on climbing guilt. Too much else happening. But I'm gonna murder the rock the last week of the year.
More Glenlivet, a doob, and I'm crashing early.
And to all a good night.

Tucking into a Lost Abbey Avant Garde Belgian ale. Never had it but, THIS JUST IN,
It rocks! And the price is quite moderate.
Skulls, you say it's cold? Ha! It's like 43 and pissing down here in La-La Land! Brutal!

Well, relatively anyway. But it's VERY dark, so it feels colder? Maybe I was under dressed? yeah, I'm reaching. ;-)
Cool, then. Thirties.
