Fernet is pronounced with the "net" part English style like a basketball net. Just exactly as it is spelled with none of this "fernayy" business
Mmmmm, Fernet. Also, "Fernet" is in and of itself non-alcoholic. The family distributes the herbal tonic to various distilleries, who then add Teh Booze. Hence, here you can find Fernet-Branca (which is what I had people drinking), and Fernet-Stock, which is Fernet blended with an orange liqueur, and on. Fernet in Europe is orders of magnitude more potent than U.S. Fernet, partially due to the opiates being allowed to stay in.
Also, yay kissing!

I curse my temperance for disallowing me from making out with you!
All those who don't want to be at work, but elsewhere pursuing other things or just slounging, raise your hands!
raises both and feet
At the F2F I leaned back at one point and found a nice comfy human back to lean against (this was before becoming comfortably numb). As I relaxed, my brain played through the people I knew to be behind me - Pete chief among them. It was then that I realize who I was leaning on and I think I jumped a mile. Not quite a looming, but startling nonetheless.
Giving rise to this exchange, forever COMW'd:
SuziQ (in the crush of the HS): Am I leaning on Pete?
Jilli & Juliana: Yeah.
SuziQ: Oh fuck!
Ok. Why couldn't my allergist appointment have been TODAY? When I can't breathe? And my eyes are all crusty? See! It's not all better!
Ahem. Sorry.
Raises hands. Waves them in the air. Pretends to be waving at unexpectedly passing coworker . . .
. . . . 15 seconds of awkward conversation later, shuts door, re-raises hands.

This, from the queen of microanalysis. I know from experience the too-soon talk can be a real kill-buzz.
And speaking of kissage...
I don't kiss ANYone for 3 freaking years and what do I get immediately upon snogging Fella?
MONO
I'm 46 years old. WTF?
No wonder I've felt like dirt for the last 3.5 months.
Although, I feel all manner of tough for remaining at least mostly upright for all that time.
dayum.
I have no idea how to deal with it...off to the doc's office for some mystery medicine he has prescribed.
Blergh.
