You have to remember that the actual drinking of Fernet can be kind of a shock to the system, but it makes you feel so much better afterwards. It's a strange effect. It's also a superlative hangover cure, not that I would know anything about that.

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

Um. Have fun???

Thrive to spite them
I went to the Atlanta F2F with a bit of a lingering cough and feeling unwell, then I took a shot of Fernet and it all cleared up.

I'd interested to hear why you have this conclusion. I think I agree with it....

See!! It really is fantastic (it just tastes... strong).

Am home and have TWO, count them TWO, open bottles of Fernet. Don't ask. Or blame juliana. Or something.

Fernet chased with champagne sounds AWESOME...but using Veuve seems like a waste, really!
I am SO rolling my eyes at the HR guy at the second Seattle company. He was *totally* clueless when he did my preliminary interview. Which, OK, he said he was new to the industry, and it is kinda technical, fine. But he didn't seem to have any idea what he was talking about--this wasn't even just "reading down a list of requirements, have you done them?" kinda thing. It was "So, um, did you work on any drugs? like, things that are pills? or injections?" But OK, you're new to the industry...but sending me an email to set up travel and saying "Does Raleigh have an airport"?? Dude. (A) You have my resume. I'm not in North Carolina. And (B) Raleigh has an airport. It is not especially new, or small. WTF?

The forgetting of an alcoholic beverage that you should Never Ever drink again is soooo a v. bad thing.
Why do I keep thinking today is Thursday? And why the hell isn't it? Tomorrow should totally be Friday. Can someone please get to work on making that happen?

Nicole - I am once again trying to negotiate a job in your neck of the woods. I want to stay here but work for them there - with the potential of relocating after next June. I doubt they will go for it, but I'm asking anyway.
