I for one have had a few, which may possibly explain my spelling and overt flirtatiousness. Me? Stopped by Gordon Biersch actually on BUSINESS! Well I HAD to have a few Dunkels, to let the Sales Manager know I was serious. Work is hell. Then why stop when I get home?

Anyway, I’m fairly toasted. Are you?

I am not now, but I promise to return on Thursday night, only to type as a drunk.

Yes finally, you will see me in my **finest** form!

Gotta play hockey tomorrow, and I got a physical Thursday.

Well, if my Ybor Gold had gotten here this weekend, I might be… 😉

Unfortunately, now that I’m back at my parents, their “No drinking” rule is back into effect, so… no goodies in **my** soda tonight.

I need to go out of town for a weekend and have someone get me plastered. Any volunteers??? 😃

Oh, and **UncleBill** … what makes tonight so special? You’re **ALWAYS** an overt flirt! :eek:

Yeah, well, last night you could have asked me how many pulls you can G in a muscle car (I’m afraid to go back to that thread and look).

I might be drinking, but I’m a little uneasy about doing so all alone. 🙂

Hmm… where are you, **TP**? 🙂

I’m not, but I just was.

Four guys moved into the house across the street a few months ago, and they were quite stalkeresque. Turned out I had met one of them about six months prior as he was the cousin of a friend. Blah blah blah.

They finally got me to go over tonight, and they certainly took advantage. After they all too disgusting creme de cacao, cherry whiskey, pepsi and vodka concoction they fed me, they handed over some vodka a la grape juice.

Thursday I am to escort some cheese.

My ap ologies if I am lacking in the sense department.  
I am now off to the sanctity of my waterbed so I can sell knives come the morn.

Vodka? Why, that’s my middle name!

Will the lady be wanting it on the rocks or straight out of the bottle? 😛

Honestly, have you any soda to mix with it? I like to be brought up slowly, then be surprised when I get hit with it. 😉

Why yes, yes I do. I have everything from Mountain Dew to Shasta to A-Treat to Mr. Pibb to Dr Pepper to Jolt to Pepsi and Coke. Whaddlitbe?

And I have a glass for you, too! Now… do you have something I could drink **mine** out of? 😉

Oh, Coke please. _takes a long sip_ Now THAT hits the spot.

And you can drink yours from wherever you’d like. I’m sure there are a few receptacles that would be just perfect for your drinking pleasure. 😃

Only on my third beer here. I do so love playing the “oh dear lord, what did I post last night” game with a raging hangover. Ooh ooh…I found some whiskey…I should be up to full tomfoolery mode in about 20 minutes!!!
