I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Side note: I would never ask this question during football season. If the game has started, or is about to start, it's time for a beer.
And follow-up question:L it's not drinking alone if I'm with the invisible people in the box, right?
But I know that all the other Victorian goth girls will have that, too!
That's a reasonable thing to keep in mind when you're you, Jilli. ALso, I note that you say this about things you "kinda like", which underscores the fineness of it - if you were turning up things you love because they'r be too common, that might be another kettle of fish. Or it might not. I've been trying to convince myself not to buy anything I'm not in love with, lately, so that's a bias I have right now...

Of course not! Virtual cocktail parties are all the rage. It's also not the sad drinking alone if you are in the bath, primping to go out (or stay in), relaxing after a crap day or watching a sport.

Even if the other Victorian goth girls have it, none of them will be able to pull it off the way you do, Jilli. A dress alone does not an impression make.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

What about staring unseeing at the television?

Daisy makes the best rules. Or interprets. Whatever. I will gladly follow the Way of Daisy Jane.
I've gone with 4 parts 3 Olives, 1 part cranberry concentrate and one part lime juice. It's a bit more opaque than I'd like, and could use some sweet to balance the tart. Not much Actually, it's pretty good like it is. Maybe more lime less cranberry next one.
Also, my martini glasses seem quite enormous, I was sure I was making two servings but it all fit in the one glass no problem.

That's between you and the dispairing howly voice in your head.

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

I think you missed the "relaxing after a crap day" bit.
I have "beer time", "whiskey time", and "shot time", and they do go in that order. "Beer time" is any time (this also applies to wine). "Shot time" is not until after 10 p.m., unless it's a Friday or a Saturday. "Whiskey time" is when it's time to switch to whiskey.

Apropos of this discussion - can I say HOW MUCH I'm looking forward to hosting Daisy in 9 days?? SO MUCH. This is, like, destiny, man.
