I hereby decree everyone gts to do what they want today in observance of my birthday!
And here I sit with the Internet, a credit card, AND permission from the Empress!!! Wooo-hooooo!
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! I feel all superspecial and stuff.
Please. I just got a message from someone in the office about cornholing. I'm afraid to open the message.
It's a sport similar to horseshoes. Appalachian in origin in this country and experiencing a resurgence (at least here in the Midwest.) My uncle makes cornhole platforms and we've played it at every family cookout this year.
Yeah, it's a beanbag-type game, and got really popular here about 4-5 years ago. It's really common to see houses with signs in their front yards -- the kind that say, for instance, "Tomatoes, Apples, Honey: 4 Sale!" -- that say "Cornhole Games Made Here 4 Sale!"
Who knew that vulgarly named yard games were a cottage industry?
Oh, and:
Happy Birthday, Aimee!!!
Also, Happy Birthday, Aims.
Thank you!!! Everyone thank you!!!
Spider-pig...spider-pig...does whatever a spider-pig does....
Damn you people, now ND's going to start singing it at me again. I haven't seen the movie yet, but he can't resist breaking into song anytime he sees Sean's tagline.
Ok - was just given my shopping list for BevMo:
2 cases (24) Sierra Nevada
2 cases Pacifico
1 case budwieser
1 case coors lite
5 bottles Yellowtail Chardonnay
5 bottles assorted red wine
Ok - what kind of red wine? I am an idiot when it comes to choosing wines. This is just for a picnic. Basic BBQ food. Nothing fancy...but I don't want to buy swill or something too good - ya know?
Cornholing is most definitely a known euphemism for anal.
In fact, that's how I first heard of the practice when I was 7.
I'd just by some Yellowtail merlot and/or shiraz. Easy, and you're staying with the brand. As I recall, it doesn't suck.
