SO U MOVING TO HSTNGS! PACK A AMPULE OF ANTIVENOM AND A FACK FULL OF EMINEM

I was so busy today that I barely got started on the first thing!

Drinking crazy vodka drinks at Moscow on the hill, hoping to fill dan w/jealousy.

Failed

Did I mention that they now have a vodka infused with coriander?

Well I'm filled with jealousy anyway. Maybe Dan is but he's just being exceptionally quiet about it?

hate u

See?

Also they serve the garlic and dill shot w/ a little cornichon on a cocktail spear

Hello martini w/Sobieski and drambuie with a solitary floating coffee bean why yes I will drink you

Last night obv, not now.

I also drank his martini friend made w/ stoli peachnik, Campari, and fresh squeezed lime juice

Okay, how is that "obv," lol - you're not boozing at work then?! ;)

garlic and dill shot sounds amazing, btw

Dan should come home so that we could investigate these wonders. And bring FB back from wandering the planet with M., too.

Tonight I sadly have to settle for mere hand made sangria and a gourmet meal

awwww

I hate you, John. In the fondest way possible.

All my trials, lord
Soooon be over

okay, so you *are* drinking today at work then

I love you like a brother, John, so know that I mean it with every fiber in my being when I invite you to eat every square inch of my ass

and with that, off to see J sing

oh man i forgot to mention that as if the fantastic martinis werent bad enough, i also was forced to eat delicious nepalese food earlier in the evening

and i have 5 pounds of boneless pork in the fridge that will be transformed into carnitas tomorrow as it slowly cooks in its own juices

i hope that burning man catches you, and eats you and your stupid carnitas

The way to not gain weight after you get married is to marry someone like me, who is a terrible cook. OBV

But yeah, I'm with gbx and deX here.

Although A. is making fresh bread, corn on the cob, some kind of pasta thing and some kind of bacon and jalapeno wrap something else. (See, I cleverly married the cook, HA!)

ugh I'm filling out security clearance paperwork and it's asking for nicknames

I suppose I HAVE to put down deX! seeing as half my friends introduce me as that, don't I

Oh I hope you put down the whole thing. "deX" is short for something, you know!

they just wheeled a giant cart of beer past my cubicle

yay

Doesn't count unless they rolled it into your cubicle iirc

essentially they did

hilariously, it was mostly bottles of Guinness draft; there were no cups provided

man it's harder to enjoy these saturday car shows when they're right on your home turf and you just wanna find a place to park and go home after work >:[

oh hay, are there any super secret speedy routes from here to red wing? it looks like the best way is to take 316 until it connects w/ 61 rather than taking 61 all the way (few miles shorter + don't have to slow to 35 through miesville). been budgeting and man i'll need to save on gas once school kicks off on monday...

If you like twisty back roads, you could take 316 to Red Wing Blvd, then turn right on Ravenna Trail.

Otherwise yeah, 316 to 61.

Ravenna Trail!!! <3 <3 <3

Ok, always will be fond of that road bc that's where McGu1r3 lived.

hmm. that doesn't look like it cuts off a ton in terms of mileage but it looks like it could be a nice leisurely drive if i ever leave a little early. my car doesn't like to go a lot faster than 55 so maybe who knows! will probably nix it during the winter, speaking of--do 316 or 61 tend to get better/quicker/preferential treatment during bad winter weather? (i'm worrying a lot lately, but my car and all...)

I strongly recommend not going down that road in winter, at least not when jjj is driving

also Sara you know many ppl who lived on RT, like say ME

Well, yes, of course I love Ravenna Trail because you lived on it, too, deX, but you and I aren't twins! That's you and Scurvy, remember? ;)

Also, yes, if John is driving, stay off Ravenna, in fact, just do yourself a favor and offer to drive yourself.

Although if memory serves, John also had a great habit of inadvertently shifting my car into neutral while I was driving all the time.

(I *think* that was inadvertent...)

Okay, super-nostalgia mode again here, Dan, get your butt home so we can hang out again and bring your beautiful wife, too. kthxbye

this jjj person sounds dangerous imo

He's really quite harmless if you keep him away from cars, tbh

^ha this could apply to me as well (though bcz i didn't have a license until i was ehm...27, but anway...)

got really sick night before 1st day of class. woke up at 3:00 that morning. and this morning. still sick. long days :[

school is really fun in spite of it all though.

i'd think feeling like the wreck i do i'd be thinking 'the last thing i wanna do is sit and learn about chisels and boards' but turns out that is the first thing i want to do

Sick? What's wrong?! Hope you are getting better...

ty! it's just a nose/throat/achy thing. (+headaches.) but i'm a really finicky sleeper so the laying awake and not breathing all night is really giving the fatigue bit of my symptoms some added weight. as well as exacerbating the rest of them i'm sure. blah blah blah i'm a stupid weak baby
