That sucks, Aims. I hope you can get more effective meds, and a good, well bounded cry.

cocktail with this and Chambord could be called “Berry McBearface”.
I would drink this (cheerfully, because of the name).
Ugh on both the migraine and the sleep struggle, meara. No good.
Hi, Aims! Very sorry for the struggling here, too, and wishes for a great new therapist and beneficially rejiggered meds to you.

Note to self: get invited to a party where Bear McCreary will be, serve him one of these.

Aims! Good to see your pixels here! I have long held the opinion that every once in a while a big old ugly cry is just necessary and should be indulged in, whatever the circumstances.
Imagining pics of Bear McCreary holding a Berry McBearface with Jess pointing him out is cracking me up

Aimee! Good to see your pixels around these parts!
My palette is definitely not refined, for liquor or most other things. Convenience store coffee tastes as good as the finely ground coffee shop sorts (but I can tell you if vinegar has been run through a coffee maker long after it's imperceptible my co-workers), Kraft American slices make as good a sandwich as aged cheddar or gouda, I can tell no difference between any provenance/age of whiskeys or bourbons, and my all-time favorite wine was an Italian moscato that cost $12 a bottle when I could find it.
I was all worried that I was being notified of a delivery from Lowe's that didn't match anything I'd ordered or anything in their online shop. Turns out it was a refund gift card that was somehow easier to FedEx to me than just refunding electronically to the gift card I used for my last purchase.

(1) there is $5,000 scotch,* and (2) there's a Canadian whisky called "Bearface," which is a fantastic name.
Last time I was in FL there was a $39,999 bottle of scotch at Total Wine.
Bearface is actually not too bad, I've had it.

It is a relief to me that (a) you've tried Bearface and (b) it's ok. I didn't realize that either of those could be source of tension for me, but apparently they were.

Yeah, I had some Bearface at one of our whiskey tasting nights. We were doing Canadian and one of the folks brought it.
