I hope she topped up the scotch with weak tea...just so the colour stays right. lol

Tequila...

Nope, not getting anything!
Except a few sheets to the wind.... Am probably in the wrong time zone to get anyone to join me though!

Does it mean anything that two of guys who know me best bought me booze for Christmas?

Only if you're drinking it right now! What kind did you get?

Nah.

Guys.... presents..... it was probably whatever was closest to hand when they remembered they were spose to get you something!

A still unopened bottle of El Jimador teqilla and a bottle of Redbreast Irish Whiskey which we broke the seal on upon receipt >noon Christmas Day.

I've never heard of El Jimador, but after a little research, I'm jealous.

I just looked it up. The bottle I got is El Jimador Reposada not the $130 stuff. I've never had it before. I'll review it when we get into it.

So, Who's Partaking as a Warmup for Tomorrow?
 

Selene is out at a Disco Night at a friend's bar, and I'm trying to digitize some old cassettes I got at the thrift store the other night. Vodka and Coke, which has become my standard, muscling out whiskey and coke, which is just too damn hard on the head.

Who else is at it?

It's new years eve here. Only just after lunch time atm though. I'll be at it in more ways than one later on this evening though. ;)

My first wife and I always made it a point to actually be having sex at the "stroke" of midnight on NYE. Then she decided to make it a point to never have sex with me again, and divorced me.

Smart girl.

I dunno Els...from what I've seen, maybe she's the loser.

I never know. Sometimes, I'm big-headed, and think I'm all that. Other times (like now), I'm pretty much a loser boy. So far tonight I have failed to install a driver, failed to install the weather station software to go with the weather station, played about three hours of old stuff I recorded with varying band formations so I could feel half assed good about myself, put away a second load of dishes from the dishwasher, finished the pots and pans, cleaned the stove and counters...

Oh...I also got a phone call from my Mrs, who is once again having a much better run at the poly thing than I. Her disco night foray resulted in a mutual interest situation which has made its way to a nearby IHOP (that's International House of Pancakes for those of you on the other side of the International Date Line) for conversation and consideration of whether it ought to go anywhere further.

The pic below will show you why (my wife is quite the babe) she won't have to have a boring night out unless she chooses to...

I know my turn is coming up someday soon, and I'm happy for her, but...

Next time someone tells you open marriage/poly is always cool, have them send me an email. It is great when you're doing okay, not so great when you smell like bleach and you're wondering why you aren't quite as desireable. :)

Yeah, I'm a whiner. You all probably know that, though. Its all good.

I doubt I'd be comfortable with that sort of arrangement, so hopefully I'll never be asked to make the decision. I doubt that it'll happen unless I were the one to suggest it though.

I can imagine it must be tough for you. I don't reckon it's all about the sex anyway.

See yourself the way we all do and I reckon you'll feel much better about yourself.
