Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
and if I was giving scotch to someone for the first time - a little splash of water - it take the edge off , so they don't choke.
It also opens it up. The cask strength I've had, which I'm assuming (if not, ignore me) the stuff from a family distillery would be, has been a little thick. I would've said it tasted like smoky caramel, but I'm not sure that's what I'd have said if it were my first taste of the stuff. I couldn't get anyone else to have a taste, so I can't tell you their reaction.
First time I was given scotch, it was for medicinal purposes, and I thought it tasted like NyQuil but easier to swallow. Probably not a helpful comparison for your heroine, Susan. But I was given it straight, and about a shot of it, and it was for both emotional and physical restoration.
Back at work. bleagh. days off just make me realize that I really do not want to work at all and I especially do not want to work here.
some good news, I am wearing a suit I haven't been able to wear for 6 months (yay mystery size loss) and due to day off, I had oatmeal ready this morning, so a healthy breakfast.
Also, Victor et al....did anyone know that there's a Luchadores cartoon? Mucha Lucha! Tivo was watching it this morning.
Oh, hell yeah. It's been around for maybe 6 months -- it's not as good as I had hoped, but it has its moments. (Particularly the luchadore named Snow Pea -- he's the one in the middle, who looks like, well, a pea pod -- whose signature move is called "The Cuddly Hug of Friendship," and who can only say his own name, much like Pikachu.)
Yay msbelle on the quasi-new suit wearing!
I'm feeling really uninspired, workwise, at the moment. Love the job yadda yadda, but still. There's a beach somewhere in the Caribbean right now that absolutely fails to have me on it, and that's just wrong.

They used to have a website where you could build your own luchadore. Don't know if that was a special promotion for when they first started showing the cartoon, or if it's still up.
The only thing that really interests me right now is watching movies and reading books. This weekend I watched Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Siterhood, The Whole Wide World, and half of The Bathing Beauty (an old Esther Williams movie).
Then I finished PD James' Cover Her Face and started The Three Musketeers.
As always, I will blame it on the rain.

My father is a scotch drinker. My first exposure to it as far as drinking it was an extremely strong reminder of my dad, to the point where I really can't enjoy it. Not that I don't love my dad, but the association was too strong.
So, I'm watching Ellen, like I do, and Ice Cube's kid's nickname is OMG! Har.
