(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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

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?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Could your brother recommend a good faux gin, Teppy? I do miss my martinis.

I genuinely love everything this place makes: [link]

I'll note that I drink the hard stuff, too, so that's my baseline comparison. The Bittersweet is my favorite Dhos, but the Gin Free also rocks.
