Morning, lovies! I'm super excited-we're due to get some gnarly snow tomorrow and sunday!! I plan on going to Trader Joes later and stocking up on tasty snax. Mmmm....snowed in....Oh but guess what. Mr. Foibles and I attended a get-together last night with all the mechanics we used to work with and our old boss. It was so nice to get out for a bit and it was lovely to see all the guys. I had a truly delicious roast-beef sanwidge and played pool. I also had three beers. And, well. *pauses, picks invisible lint from coat* I have a hangover today. I woke up with a tiny headache, which was fine, but after I showered and was dressing I started getting waves of nausea. They got worse, and I felt shaky and gross. When I took the dog out and had a smoke, the cold air felt really nice, but then when we came in I thought, Oh my God should I go vomit and get it over with?? I didn't, though. I went and got coffee and a bagel and consumed both along with some Coke. I'm gradually feeling less gross but WTF? Three beers?? Who gets a hangover from three stupid beers? Ugh. Anyway, cheers, and now I've got to get some work done.
Legal advice! I run a weekly trivia game. Last night I had a "Douches of the Decade" category (yes, inspired by the Gawker post). It included Tucker Max as an answer. I did not directly call him a douche, I merely asked about him within the category. His lawyer happened to be in attendance. I'm not in jeopardy of any sort of slander lawsuit, am I?
@Ailatan: I am doing pretty well! This evening, I will be attending a holiday party with my college friends, where we will eat, drink, and be merry. How about you?
I just found out that the liquor store down the street from my dorm in addition to selling Mexican coca -cola sells The Kraken Rum, which is pretty good and effective.
hence I'm drunk and thinking that I really need to either set my personality to either emo depressed or cocky asshole .
also I might have kinda bugged a girl I liked
Hence the drinking of rum in an awesome bottle
really its good rum

I think my stupid logic trumped my gut, I think I kinda annoyed a girl cuz I wanted to buy tickets in advance. I'm not going to talk to her for a few days so I can get that out of my system.
@salthegeek: Yuck, I hate when logic somehow breaks social rules and you end up feeling like a butthead. And speaking of gut, I always think of the quote from High Fidelity: " Well, I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains."
And suckier, tomorrow is Friday so I can't really call in. Also, it's the last weekend before Christmas and I need to go to the mall to get my mom's present and then wrap stuff.
I downloaded an updated version of firefox today.
My computer has been totally funky ever since.
Gah. I have such a love/hate relationship with technology.
I just went onto Twitter for the first time in two months and saw a tweet from Tracie about the bitchiest Jez commenter and I am dying to know who it is.
So, I never ate cheese that wasn't on pizza before moving in with my boyfriend. Now, I am addicted to black forest ham, swiss, spicy mustard and spinach all slammed together and melted in his George Forman grill from college.
@Penny: Try some Port Salut! And smoked gouda! Tillamook extra sharp cheddar! Cheese is so amazing, just writing about it makes me instantaneously crave it.
My coat is apparently not Northeast-winter-friendly, and I think it's time to get something huge and puffy and warm. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm too cold to care what it looks like.
@NellMood: When I moved to a place that has a real winter, my mom got me a Lands End down-filled puffy jacket for my b-day. I'm not normally a fan of Lands End stuff, but the jacket is really warm without being too puffy. It's also a bit fitted (so that it doesn't look totally shapeless), but leaves enough room to accommodate bulky sweaters or layers.
@tallgirl-in-heels: @activearchivist is lovely, in a moist, fluffy sort of way: @ holden caulfield's (canadian) female doppelgänger: Thanks y'all. I don't think I can handle this winter without a better coat. This such an un-fun purchase.
I posted a Mint Juleps video earlier today, and a lot of people liked it. Here's another, with Ladysmith Black Mambazo. If you know of 20 better voices in the world, let me know.

Hugs to all of you!
I have my worst hangover since college today. At least I am more focused on trying to keep myself from puking than crying over boys. Win? #groupthink
