Oh, man, ita, I'm sorry.

Cash:

I'll do some shopping around, come back to you with numbers.

It's not the volts, though. It's the amps that getcha.

Did I ever tell my cattle prod story?

Once we had a sick cow that the vet came to look at. The cow refused to get up, so the vet used the cattle prod on it. Once the cow got up, she kicked the vet in the crotch, sending him to the hospital.....

Ack, sorry ita. That sucks.

But if you've noticed what size my rack is, you damned well better have noticed my race.

Heh. Hehe. Heheheheh. ita's rack.

Er, OMG, are you like, Korean? Or Swedish? Ohmagah!!

Sucks seriously about your job though. Damn.

Tom, I was talking with a woman last week who decided she wants to switch careers. She thought being a vet tech sounded good. Only problem is, she's allergic to dogs and cats. I was like "Ummmm....unless you plan to be a large animal vet tech, you might wanna rethink that one..."

Ugh, ita, that sucks.

1. Know what you want before the bartender approaches you. If it's slow, and/or you have a couple questions about the menu or beers, no prob. But if it's packed and/or you have to ask your entire group if they all want Miller Lite, thereby wasting the bartender's time? No love for you.

The flip side: provide me some way, other than peering 40 feet down a dimly lit bar and trying to decipher taps, to know what you have, and then I won't bug you so much with the "do you have Stella? No? Sierra? No? What about..."

Oooh, seriously!!! Especially here in Seattle, where they're all big with having schmancy brews on tap, so it's not like you can look at the taps and autorecognize. And since some of the stuff on tap may be GOOD, you dont' want to assume you have to go with liquor or a bottle. Though when they put a line of dusty bottles three shelves up, and I'm supposed to figure out what beer they have in bottles in the dark, from that? Just as annoying.

That's what my daughter aspires to. My son wants to be an Engineer/Rock Star.

Honestly, that's how I started drinking Bud, when I lived in Atlanta. We did a lot of bar hopping and I got so over trying to order decent beer and having to have that same freaking conversation with the bartender everywhere you went.
