Shrift, can you come over and SMASH for me?

Right now, I probably could puke on them. I imagine that would be pretty traumatizing.

right there with you, shrift. except i do have to drive home.

That sucks, tiggy. I just need to last another hour, and then I shall try not to lose my lunch on the bus.

What is even happening?

Eat an orange (I'm saying this on the theory that lemon sometimes removes odors, and that's the closest you have), but definitely grab gum and/or mints on the way out.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Apple, actually. Follow with dark chocolate and then gum.

Argh. No, just someone who doesn't understand that OTHER PEOPLE are using them too and just because the network connection is slow doesn't mean you can do whatever you like with the files on the network.

Oh, and we have a 4:30 status meeting on this project where I get to flail because we're so frelling behind. Not ready, not ready.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Are you sure? Does she wear a powder-blue velour tracksuit to work? Does she believe that crop circles are proof of alien life? Does she think that logging in and then leaving for half an hour to get breakfast counts as being in the office?

OK, so I'm in the mood to get my drink on tonight, and I'm looking for a change of pace. Any suggestions on something relatively simple (aka one shopping trip), yet awesome? Somehow anything that's too sweet, or has a lot of soda pop in it sounds icky.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Sangria. Each glass gets (over ice) 1/2 oz each of gin, brandy and triple sec (the cheap stuff, really) fill it almost all the way with red wine (the cheaper the better, jug burgundy is good) and splash it with some sprite. If you're feeling really adventurous you can make a big batch and let it marinate over cut up apples and oranges. I like to dice up red & green apples and oranges for the garnish as well.

It's a little sweet and has a little soda pop in it. Some folks drink it without the sprite but I think it's just a little too strong that way.

Does she believe that crop circles are proof of alien life?

What? They aren't?

C'mon! This is undisputable proof of aliens making crop circles.

Laga, sadly I don't like wine. (I know, this probably means I need to turn in my Buffista card, but I'm ok with that.) Sangria has been a gateway for me so many times.... "try this, I'm sure you'll like it!" Sorry, no, still tastes like wine.
