Likewise.

Which is why I just end up mainlining tea most evenings.

I'm addicted to a brand of Italian soda here which has several unconventional and not-particularly-sweet flavors. The biggest one that comes to mind is "Prickly Pear," which is made from the fruit of said cactus. It's a little bitter and yet oddly compelling; the bottle is empty before you realize how much you were liking it.

I love the cactus itself. It grows wild here, and is a great hiking treat. Very tasty and refreshing.

Two glasses of a shiraz from Australia. Don't remember the brand, but it wasn't particularly good.

I made a couple of pizzas from scratch to have as part of our super bowl party. Before that was cheese and crackers, hummus and toasted pita wedges, and kalamata olives.

If you ever get a chance try some Seven Deadly Zins, it is a great wine, about $15-18 a bottle depending on where you get it.

A cute name like that will make me avoid a wine, and I even like zinfandels, so I'd probably like it. That's more than I normally pay for a bottle. It would have to be a really special occasion. I'm usually at the $7-8 price point.

Lap sang sou chong tea. The smokey finish may not be for everyone, but I love it. Reminds me of sitting by the campfire on a clear desert night.

Same old same old, but not enough of it.
I have gone off fizzy water and I can reallty tell in the mornings. My eyes are stuck together and when I pee it is a really dark colour (a sign of dehydration in case you missed that class in school).

Will stop being so naughty today - if I take some into work I'm bound to drink it as the default is still water. And it means I can burp away to myself, which is an added amusement.

She said I’m going out with my girlfriends
Margaritas at the Holiday Inn
Lord have mercy, my only thought
Was Tequila makes her clothes fall off

I told her put an extra layer on
I know what happens when she drinks Patrone
Her closet’s missing half the things she’s bought
Ya Tequila makes her clothes fall off

(Chorus)
She’ll start with kickin’ out of her shoes
Loose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

Them pantyhose aint gonna last too long
If the DJ puts Bon Jovi on
She might come home in a table cloth
Ya tequila makes her clothes fall off

Break

She can handle any champagne brunch
A bridal shower with Bacardi punch
Jello shooters full of Smirnoff
But Tequila makes her clothes fall off

Chorus

She don’t mean nothing - she’s just havin fun
Tomorrow she’ll say oh what have I done
Her friends will joke about the stuff she lost
ya tequila makes her clothes fall off
oh Tequila makes her clothes fall off
It does, and they did!

Cuervo Especial, btw.

Tequila from Terrorvision. Sean Hughes was in the shorter vidoe.
(I walked down the aisle to a Terrorvision song FWIW - FSM bless the 90s)

Irish coffee, though I didn't have any whipped cream for the full effect... so, sweetened coffee (brown sugar, please) with a tot of Jameson's.

Whattaya know: you can sing "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off" to Bo Diddley/The Mockingbird Song/Hush Little Baby...
