But they have to do lots of tedious stuff while getting drunk, and worse, lots of tedious stuff while sobering-up.
I've had evenings like that without getting paid.
I wanna hurt you, but I can't resist the sinister attraction of your cold and muscular body!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm getting paid for doing tedious stuff RIGHT NOW!
And I'd prefer to be drunk while doing it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What are they drinking, Rick? That could be the deal maker or breaker.
The coolest thing happened in the class I taught Wednesday. It was going really crappily, and no one was getting it.
"Do any of you trust this technique?"
blank/worried looks and shaken heads
So I'm thinking I'm the worst teacher ever (well, except for that one guy -- he's pretty bad).
"Okay, look. Don't forget to ean forward and keep your shoulders square, and ... toss in some blind faith. Because it really does work."
And then they all got it right.
I have no idea how teaching works, but it's nice when it does.

Predictions on the overplayed song of summer '05?"Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani. June 10 and it's already overplayed to hell and back.
What was your worst family summer vacation?Our trip to Boston. Mom and Dad alternated being physically ill with bickering. Also, they thought they could drive in Boston. They were so very wrong.
your best?Driving from MI to CA and back again in the summer of '76. I got to see the Grand Canyon, a tornado in Kansas, and redwood trees.

I don't think of summer desserts, but I do love margs in summer. I am always fantasizing about eating mexican outside at sunset while drinking margs.

Usually vodka or pure alcohol in a mix that makes it hard to tell how strong the drinks are. It's not drinking for taste. It's drinking to get drunk.

Once again, the lying few make it uncomfortable for the honest rest of us.
Yeah. I mean, there are things I'd lie about, but being pregnant isn't one of them. But perhaps I want to have my cake and eat it, too.
But not in the pregnant-and-craving way.

Now tagless for your comfort.
It's not drinking for taste. It's drinking to get drunk.
I've had nights like that.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
Favorite summer dessert? how about year round? edy's double fudge brownie ice cream. best ice cream EVAH!
Beach or pool? to swim in? pool. to relax by? beach.
Predictions on the overplayed song of summer '05? don't listen to the radio much since i got the ipod, but i've heard Hollaback Girl enough times to warrant annoyance with it.
What was your worst family summer vacation? I can't really think of one. though we did go to Panama City Beach one year and almost every single one of us got sunburned so badly we could hardly walk. my dad got sunpoisoning. fun times.
your best? nothing really stands out. though i guess the year we went to florida with my best friend and her family was the best year because i had someone to pal around with besides family. *g*
