The Acme has cooked my turkey this year.

I decided to be responsible for the wine. Since work has been busy I did not stomp my own grapes. I just braved the Hell that is a State Store on the Day Before a Holiday. This is a much more arduous process than just making the wine.

I bought Smoking Loon Merlot, and some of that fruity flavor Arbor Mist stuff ... the Island Fruits, for no other reason than I kind of remembered I liked it on an earlier trial.

Because this is the official kick off of the Yule Season, I grabbed a bottle of Penn Dutch Egg Nog (alright, it was an impulse purchase. I was in line at the cash register and thought, "oh yeah, damn, I need some of that too!!")

I rounded out my impulse purchases with a miniature Holy Hand Grenade™.

Fair warning, I may post in the Posting While Intoxicated thread tomorrrow.

I think this is the first time in about the last 9 years that I have not worked on Thanksgiving Day. Hospital policy is that I have to stop drinking one shift before my next shift, so I will have until 0800 Friday.
