Now I prefer the more sedate vodka tonic.
You sure took to them when I made them for you in SF.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Soccer (or to Jars, football) fans may remember that NYC's team is the Red Bulls, newly renamed this season (yes, after being bought by the folks that own the drink company). In their first game of the season against D.C. United, the D.C. player that scored the first goal went to the bench, took a swig of the drink, and spit it out.
He (Alecko Eskandarian by name) was fined by the league for inappropriate celebrating.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Gimlet! And tequila shots. Gimlets are more for when I don't want to seem like an alcoholic ho.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Now I prefer the more sedate vodka tonic. I suspect I need a secondary drink, though.
Whiskey? Whiskey & water? You're in a wonderful place for the whiskey.
Greyhounds are a nice changeup for when you still want to be drinking vodka (vodka & grapefruit juice). Added bonus - lack of scurvy!

Thank you for being so courteous, but in Ireland, football is Gaelic football and football is called soccer. But people can call soccer football too. It's a touch confusing.

Vodka tonic made with mandarin or citron vodka? That's my club drink of choice.

Tequila has a cult status among some of my IRL friends. I don't really understand the appeal, but I partake when I'm with them.
My out-and-about drinks of choice are either vodka and cranberry or Kahlua and cream. Or inappropriately-named shots that make the waiter blush.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Yeah, we went to Picolo one night, and Porto Bella (? -- right across the street) the other. They were both good. We were going to go to the seafood place along there, but it was way too pricy!
Yeah, Porto Bella is supposed to be the gold standard for Italian in Worcester, although I've not been there and can't say for certain. Lots of people in town swear by it.
Sorry I missed you!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I got off the tonic when I was low-carbing it, so now I drink a lot of Stoli Vanilla and Diet Coke.

Saturday I drank an undetermined amount of Tequila and made out with Leif Garrett.
Hey, it happens.
