because really, i could use a drink. (or five) right now. midterms are killing me. not to mention that last night in class, we were doing those stupid peer reviews and some idiot took off with my paper. now i have to fuckin re-write the whole damn thing (we have to use the reviews and incorporate them in our paper but now i have no way of doing that). UGH.

Who says you have to limit your drinking to days ending in -ay?

One or two before you go to bed can do wonders, if you're in a really stressed out mood...

That, or you can just buy one of these, like I did last night - it's amazing how a good one of these can relax you:

friday would be nice...this 70 degree weather is making it really hard to study....6 weeks until finals. jesus h. it never stops.

heading to vancouver, bc for the weekend - you can tell where my priorities lie.

Are you writing papers on Big Chief tablets or something? You didn't save the paper to disk?

I'm more concerned about your welfare than trying to come off as a twat, by the way.

We had two feet of snow overnight, Tried to barrel the car through the driveway with only a cursory shovelling this morning. Got stuck. Guess I'm gonna have to dig out under the car sometime today.

i hear ya. all i can do is count the hours until i leave my stupid old job for my stupid new job. i see vodka tonics in my crystal ball. Wait Dri i thought you weren't gonna be drinking for awhile. Though i suppose it's been awhile since you said that. i'm bad with...time.

my nigga

haha. of course i have it saved, but the thing is we have to incorporate our "peer reviews" into the paper and turn that information in with our final draft. since i don't have that because of some idiot, does that mean my grade goes down? fuck that! i'm just really irritated at that.

and btw, cotton, i really haven't been drinking like i normally do. especially because i've been sick. and "awhile" is like 2-3 weeks for me. that's a long time.

i could so go for this right about now:


sans the martini glass, martini's are for wusses.

atta girl. welcome back.

and if all goes well for this so-called trip to sxsw, it's SOOOOO on. (although i'm REALLY worried at the moment my friend is going to flake and we won't be going anymore. that. would. blow.)

you have to just annoy the living shit out of thm until they give in. they'll thank you for it later.

Martinis are for wusses? Fuck dat shit! Have a dirty martini, m'dear...nice and strong. Though, I don't plan on EVER getting stupid-drunk like I did at Jared's!

Hey, are you still gonna see The Futureheads on Friday? If so, I can give you those CDs if you want.

PS -- I like that Cotton is posting more. I missed you.

I can't believe a Southern Califonian bought that contraption. I'm so disappointed in you, Kyle. *sniffle* I had such hopes for you.

had a heineken last nite. still wouldn't mind the next 3.5 hours being the last 3.5 work hours for the week.

Hopes, dreams...those are intangibles...
Quesadillas? Now those are something I can sink my teeth into...

thanks, Tania. it's good to be back. My new job alows me to post a bit more during the day, although for the next 3 weeks or so i'm gonna be scarce since i'm working both new and old one.

Puma, darlin, go talk to your professor and explain the situation. You will look more responsible, and he/she will look even more irresponsible. I bet you can get maaad points for being on the up and up.

And, martinis are made with gin, but I agree with Aural, dirty is the way to go. Last time I checked, drinking anything straight ain't for pussies.

Ohhh, no gin for me. Tania + gin = very ugly. However, Tania + vodka = very happy.

In the James Bond books, he drinks them half Vodka, half Gin...but he also drinks High Life as well, so take that with a grain of whatever.

really? I'm surprised Ian Fleming even knew what the high life was....even so it fills me with not pride, but...less shame.

Well, it was in one of the one's where he comes to America..oh, Goldfinger. You have to remember that there weren't that many beers on the market in the mid fifties. It's really kind of funny, though, because they read more like a how to guide to being a pimp, with some spy intrigue, than they do anything else.

she was the one who sat there convincing me to go and i finally decided that i can make it happen. now if SHE lives up to her end.... grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

tania- still not sure about the futureheads, it depends if eddie can hook it up or not. and if i can convince my date to go. i'll call ya!

and kyle- i love jalapenos so make me a damn quesedilla already!!!

a few of these sound good too:

i blame this thread for my going out last night (between two 14 hour days, no less) and having many beers while watching the south park rerun at the bar. Now i'm still a little tired and have sex-change operation footage stuck in my head. ugh.
