I stayed sober. Hubs made up for me.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Matt, that's the only way to fly.
It did keep me from strangling The Child Who Would Not Shut Up who was across the aisle from me on the Dulles-Atlanta leg of the journey. It had the world's most annoying voice, like Jennifer Tilly's, only it never, ever took a break to stare vapidly off camera while trying to remember the next line.

I can't even.

Bwah! Tilly's most redeeming quality, if I recall correctly.
Hmm. How about a Grate-Off reality show pitting Jennifer Tilly against Joey Lauren Adams to see who can cause the most injuries from people trying anything to stop. that. noise.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I drank a couple screwdrivers, no big. I wasn't going to spend six bucks per for more cocktails.
Does anyone know what our final alcohol tally was?

I drank well into the double digits on the drink count. I know that I was mainly refilling the same glass so I could get a count from the number of limes in the glass. I ended up with a new glass at three different points. I remember counting 5 limes in one glass at a random point, and 8 limes in another glass at a random point.
I went to get a new drink about midway through the party and the bartender handed me a glass of Vodka Tonic and said, "No, this one's on me."
Amazingly, I wasn't hung over.

I drank nothing on Friday (except a glass of Lebanese wine at dinner) and quite a bit on Saturday. I'm curious what the final tally was as well.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
ND sounds like he drinks like me- though I don't switch drinks.

No, it was all Vodka Tonic. I just lost track of my glass at a couple of different points.

Ah. So pretty much just like me only with vodka where the scotch should be and tonic where the-- nothing I guess, should be.
ETA: I count mine by the swizzle straws they always give me even though I say don't bother.

Yeah, they didn't have decent scotch to drink, so I went with the Vodka Tonic. It's like limeade essentially.
