Okay, well, you could try to have a Slow Comfortable Screw on the Beach in front of Rachel Maddow but she would totally go bartender dom on your ass.
Fred: The size and depth of the wound indicate a female vampire. Harmony: Or gay! Fred: Um…it doesn't really work like that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
True fact.

The Aviation is very tasty! It's not a hardship to drink. (Betsy prefers the variation with Violet, as I recall.)

I don't care what Rachel Maddow thinks, I'm about to throw some Bailey's into instant hot cocoa.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yum. A winter classic.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Last night we hung out with an old friend who has been off in China and Mongolia for a month Went to dinner at Swingers Diner (french toast for dinner, yum) and got to hear cool stuff about Ulan Bator. Then we all went to see Cadillac Records, which had great performances in a mediocre movie. DH and I got home earlyish, did, well, something private which married people do, then got up and watched That's Entertainment and the ball drop.
Today we have gone to Lowe's and Sears for house stuff. We also stopped off at CVS and had a cheap animal cracker taste-off. We bought three kinds and here are our observations
CVS Brand: a bit puffy-looking. Burnt taste and crumbly = Fail
Modern brand Animalitos: finer crumb, floury taste = only in a dire cracker emergency
Gamesa Animalitos: Totally puffy, more like balloons than animals. Deliciousl, with a nice hint of lemon = FTW

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I went to bed early. But I totally made up for it and got into the New Years spirit by sleeping late.
A one-day holiday on Thursday just seems wrong, what with the having to go to work for one day on Friday.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
DH can never to go drinking with Rachel Maddow. You know that episode of HIMYM where they go to the gay bar and Marshall is all happy that he can finally order the foofy girly drink he really wants all the time? Yeah, there's a reason I identify with this show.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My usual drink orders are either run and coke or tequila and orange. I have no idea where this fits on the cocktail snob scale.

Right? It was too bad. And then I didn't realize that the main guy in Stomp the Yard (which I watched over Christmas with my parents, thinking of meara) was Little Walter!
