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.
Matt and I have the same palate. Finest wine or boxed wine, either is equally tasty. I've only had a very few sips of whiskey in my life so I would have no way of knowing if it was a good one.
In it doesn't take much to amuse me news, I'm working on cleaning up data for one of my doctors and the patient's name is Jesus, which isn't unusual. Then I notice the birthdate is 12/25/2018. I see what you did there, parents.
Ok that’s funny, Laura. I wonder how funny the kid will think it is in a few years but…I’m smiling now!
How are you functioning after the sleep deprivation, meara?
And I'm sure peri-menopause isn't helping.
She is such a bitch.
Ugh why am I awake at 330am? I’ve been awake for close to two hours. I have to get up at 6. I will probably fall back asleep at like 5 and be zonked.
Sister in unsleep. I went to bed at 9, read for maybe an hour or a bit more and thought I'd drift right off. Instead insomnia decided to fuck right off and I finally got to sleep a little after 6. So zonked. A scattered three-ish hours of sleep does not a happy Cass make. It wasn't even brain squirrels. My body just refused to sleep.
I'm mostly doing OK, other than keeping wondering why it feels so late all day (because I have been awake forever and started work at 6:30AM?) But I plan to go to bed early tonight.
