Yaaaaaaay, weekend!

Our 7-11 definitely needs to start selling better alcohol. There's absolutely no Smirnoff, red or black, so I had to settle for Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade. I've never had this before, but it's actually not half bad.

However, Smirnoff Triple Black remains the alcoholic beverage I'd drink an entire case of simply to celebrate the fact I've got a working esophagus. You know, if I wasn't a cheap three-bottle drunk.

I still think it's terribly unfair I got the brains and my little brother got the wow-this-TARDIS-holds-a-lot-of-liquor hollow leg.

hey lady, at least they SELL liquor at your 7-11.
here in godforsaken bible belt land,
you can't get any booze except beer anyplace but a bonafide liquor store.
when i went home to florida for x-mas,
i was THRILLED to see wine in the grocery stores.
i felt like i was in civilization again...

You think that's bad? Try living in a dry county, like the one I live in.

In a few weeks, there will be an election concerning whether or not to allow alcohol sales in certain restaurants here (they have to have seating capacity over 100 and derive more than 75% of their profits from food sales, if memory serves). Even though it would stimulate the local economy, which it severely needs, I see a LOT more "Vote No" signs out there than "Vote Yes" signs...

i DID live in a dry county, for several years while my dad was stationed at Fort Knox, Kentucky.
i was cracked up by the liquor store a few feet over the Meade county line: on one side of the sign it said "bernie's first chance" and on the other, "bernie's last chance."

i think it was bernie, anyway...

You don't have to tell me twice. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, home of the idiotic "state store." When I spent two months with my aunt in North Carolina in 2001 and saw them selling liquor in the grocery store, I damn near had a heart attack.

I'm an even cheaper drunk than you. One bottle beer is all it takes, unless I ate a great big meal five minutes beforehand. Thus, any party at which booze flows freely sees me smashed enough for kareoke.

(My 17-yr-old self was much the same as yours. Man. Was I really that much of a prig?)
