new drinks

Haven’t written about drinking in a while. Has been about 7 months now, but I’m still usually pretty overwhelmed. Still sticking with variations on the whole “Rum and Coke” theme, when all else fails. This weekend was mildly adventurous. I don’t know how many new drinks I ended up trying. Continue Reading

second drunk

I have confirmed that yes, I can get drunk. It was not just watching the vice-presidential debate that made me wobbly last time. And I discovered that I’m a cheap drunk. Ended up at Spellbound last Saturday after spending the day with friends. I’d had really tiny amount to drink Continue Reading

sappy shit

I haven’t tried to make New Year’s resolutions since I was in elementary school. And I’d surely break every one of them if I tried now. But I’m not going to try. It doesn’t fit with the way I handle those kinds of things. But the New Year does make Continue Reading

womens

I went looking for an old photo today, of a friend back in college. Open the “photos” folder, open the “people” folder, open the “friends” folder. Looking at the thumbnails, I’m immediately struck that the majority of photos are disturbingly attractive women. Kind of self-selectig, no doubt. Women are typically Continue Reading

When did 15k a second get to be too slow? When did I get old enough to ask questions like that? So I have a few minutes while this template is downloading. Kinda late to say it, but I had a great extended weekend, last weekend. I have purty books Continue Reading

the long weekend

‘Scuze me while I work my way backwards through the last few days: Sunday was actually both relaxing and kinda productive. Started off the morning going to Eastern Market. No new toys, (although I found both TLR and folding cameras in good condition!). But I did pick up some fresh Continue Reading

mmmmm … evil tasty goodness

I wanna be a lush when I grow up. *grin* I swear my mother will think I’m well on my way, whenever she gets around to reading this. But I have no desire to drink, ever, really. It’s all been mostly academic interest so far, when I’m out at social Continue Reading

Weekend

Went out with some friends over the weekend. Fuck… I actually pretty much spent the whole weekend with these friends. But we started the weekend on Friday night with dinner (yay Sushi!). My friends had relatives in town, and the goal for the night was a little after-dark site-seeing. Up Continue Reading

Dragon*con

Spent last weekend in Atlanta at Dragon*con. This was my second time down there, and my first time when I wasn’t obscenely sick. As expected, it was a lot of fun… a wonderful weekend. Got to see and do so much more, and spend time with a much wider range Continue Reading

second drink

To clear up an apparently common misconception regarding my recent post on drinking… I was: NOT complaining about people who ask me if I want a drink NOT bitching about … well.. anything NOT upset with… anyone NOT saying I would never drink Obviously the subject has come up a Continue Reading

Living in Sin

This was a pretty good weekend. I really didn’t get enough work done, but I did get to relax. After the stress of last week, and the likely stress of this coming week… After spending some time with Vail, Jessi, and the Boy down on the Mall, we all headed Continue Reading

Crash

I went ice skating last night, for Sarah’s birthday. Which was fun, itself. I haven’t really skated much since grade school. And I got my balance fairly quickly. Never once did I fall on my face. But that’s mostly because I stopped myself by smashing into the wall, shoulder first. Continue Reading
