Thanks.

Vodka Tonic here. God I’m boring.

Boring is fine. Are you fun as well?

That sounds like a punchline in the making: “A D.J., a bouncer, and a Canadian walk into a bar…”
This thread reminded me I had a bottle of petit syrah in the fridge. The only red wine I really like. If only I could get Kiltlifter or Black Butte Porter around here…

Hey, nothing wrong with a vodka tonic. I fly for work a lot, that’s my “airplane drink”. I prefer gin at home, for some reason.

Hmm…one beer left in the fridge. Do I join in and risk labelling myself a lonely introspective alcoholic or do I resist the urge and pretend I’m being stoic?
I’ll have a smoke while I think about it.

well, I’m drinking too, alone, is that bad? I have a joint sitting here, and I haven’t smoked in years, and I’m debating should I try it, or just stick with my beer.
As for profound thoughts, I haven’t reached there yet, but I’m sure I will very soon, although, I’m sure they’ll only be profound for me. :o

So, **Lsura** , it’s been almost six hours – you pop out a beer or two yet?
And hey, anyone else still up drinking something? Wine tastes better with good company, after all 🙂

☹ My bottle is now empty, and the alcohol in the house is tapped.

I have just finished the last of my delicious Fat Tire Amber Ales. There’s a fully-stocked bar downstairs, but I think I’ll just read a bit and call it a night.

You’re still buzzed though, right? It’s all okay until the buzz wears off… 😃

Okay, I’m back from my brother-in-law’s house.
Sorry to admit that I bummed a couple of smokes off of him. I’m still sort of proud that I only smoked two butts today instead of the usual thirty-something. (It’s all Ogre’s fault!)
In the spirit of this thread, I continued my research into the topic at hand. I have concluded that artificial turf is a bad thing and that all football games should be played outdoors on natural grass.

I was drinking last night, a nice bottle of Lindeman’s Chardonnay. Does that count? Except I couldn’t post to this thread, since I was watching Monty Python’s Meaning of Life 🙂
It all really makes sense after a bottle of wine 🙂

Thanks, hon. I hitched a ride with a friend. Hope you enjoyed your Blackhook porter and that everyone had fun drinkin’ last night. I sure did. 🙂

It’s Saturday night and nobody’s started a drunk thread yet.
So, what are y’all drinking tonight/this morning? 🙂

Laters all.
