So.....who's drinking what right now?

[BeachBaby]

I'm pouring my 2nd glass of Woodbridge White Zinfandel. It's been a day.

Tell me whatchoo got.

[3.14158675309]

1. A Bloody Mary

[BeachBaby]

25. I'm right with you, baby.

I put away the wine so that I could share in the Bloody Mary experience with you.

A toast to us - and to happiness. ILY. :toast:

[3.14158675309]

35. Let's do it IRL sometime...

;)

[BeachBaby]

40. I'm available in six days - if that works for you.

:*

[3.14158675309]

44. Really? I'll have to think about that

on my bunk!

[Tangerine LaBamba]

2. Icy cold and perfect -

and I just saw a commercial for this on Comedy Central!!!

[BeachBaby]

3. You already know I love you.....

but this just validated my reason why. :7

How are you tonight, babe? :hi: :hug:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

10. Higher than a kite ...........

Smiling. Happy. Everything is all right tonight.

And you, princess?

[BeachBaby]

14. Had a computer scare tonight....

but all it was was a false alarm, thank goodness. I am a work-at-home paralegal - and a newbie at the firm. Just about had a panic attack when my monitor bit the dust. :scared:

All else is good. Good health; good kids; good man.

Cheers to you, sweetie - and don't be such a stranger to us Loungies, okay? I love having your words to read around these parts! :toast:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

22. Ewwwwwww........

Computer screwups are happening everywhere. I had this desktop go weird on me with McAfee Security Suite. The sucker won't update. Now I have to find a good FREE virus protection program - I've had it with Norton and McAfee. Enough, already.

I post all over, baby. Last night, I made some people nuts because I wondered why they were believing that "that awful woman" had "seduced" John Edwards. You and I both know that grown men are always under the control of those "other women," don't we? And the man has ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER WHAT HE DOES.

It's all her fault, right?

So, the monitor was just screwy? Not dead?

Don't you hate that panicky feeling that hits when the computer starts going off on you? Jesus, are we dependent!!!

[BeachBaby]

32. First things first.....

FREE virus protection program:

AVAST. It's wonderful. Highly recommended. Hope that helps.

John Edwards - in short, HE fucked up - so to speak. ;)

My monitor bit the dust; luckily I had a backup. I hooked the sucker up, and everything was back to normal. My computer HAS to be nearing its last days, though; it's five years old - living on borrowed time. My laptop died last month. I guess it's time to spend yet more money. *sigh*

I've always done a pretty good job of looking at the bright side of life - but when my job is on the line, that's extremely difficult to do. :scared:

[3.14158675309]

36. Looks like it's time for a Mac!

:hide:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

39. AVAST?

You total DOLL! Thank you very much!

(Wasn't that easy, Tangerine?

Yes, yes, she's so nice, that sweet girl!)

Yeah, John did it, and that "other woman" wasn't the first, I'll bet. He always had that hound look on him, at least to me.

The good thing is that monitors are so cheap now. But, still, who wants to spend the money if you don't have to. Laptop, TOO!???? Oh, man, why do these things always happen in clusters, like cold sores?

I've gotten really good deals through Dell's site, their reconditioned laptops. But, hey, I hate to spend money, so I know all these good deal places.

Yeah, we can handle it if we can't log onto DU - life goes on - but when it's your work, no, life does NOT go on.

I'm glad it's ok, and I'm doubly glad that you're smooth and mellow - but, hey, that's your trademark, no?

:toast:

[BeachBaby]

53. John, John, John.....

Good-looking and powerful guy. And somehow, with all those smarts, he doesn't use his brain when he needs it most. Ah, well. It's not the first time a politician has done this, and I'm sure it won't be the last. It's all part of the job description. :P

As for Dell....Dell has been good to me. They are first on my list to check out for deals. :)

About my "trademark"....I'm not sure. I've been described many times as "carefree", "free spirited", "bubbly", "handles well under pressure". I will try to maintain that image for as long as I can. To be the opposite of these traits would ruin me - so I will do my best. ;)

Great talking to you tonite, sweetie. Hope to see you again soon! :hug:

[3.14158675309]

5. I'm SO jealous! Yueng is my new favorite beer, and it isn't available in MN!!!1

:wtf: :cry: :hi:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

11. It's not?

That fucking Norm Coleman...............

[3.14158675309]

18. I talked to my local liquor store about it. They said that they get

requests for it ALL the time and would sell tons of it. Distribution issues.

Not sure about the culpability of Coleman.... :rofl:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

24. It's a great, great beer -

I grew up just a few miles from the brewery, which was like a second home during high school (they gave free tastes when you took the tour, age no consideration - we took lots of tours), so it was always the beer of choice in our little corner of the world. But, one day, in a store in San Francisco, more than 20 years ago, I saw Yuengling Black and Tan in the "gourmet beer" section. I almost died laughing.

It is good, the best beer in the US, as far as I'm concerned.

It's Coleman's fault, believe me. This is the kind of evil thing that GOPigs do ..............................................

[3.14158675309]

33. I got my first taste of it last month, and then again on the golf course in Alabama!

I'm going to have to replace my wrapped zucchini with a smuggled Yuengling at the airport next week!

(Spinal Tap ref) :P

[Tangerine LaBamba]

42. It goes to eleven, don't you know?

Hell, if I could, I'd mail you a case.

You're practically a virgin!!! We coalcrackers LOVE virgins. Welcome to the Wet Side..............

[3.14158675309]

49. BeachBaby popped my Yuengling cherry, and coincidentally enough

my 10,000th post cherry (tonite) too! :rofl:

"The Wet Side" :woohoo:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

55. Oh, that BeachBaby -

she's one of the dangerous ones, really. She will kill you with her sweetness, which is real.

If you had to lose it, you lost it to the best - in every way.

Kudos on ten grand!!!

[3.14158675309]

58. BB is teh ahhsome! And you aren't a slouch yourself!

Thanks on the 10K, and a belated "+11" for your Tap ref! :rofl:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

60. Ain't we hip?

Look up "cool" - find our pictures..................

[3.14158675309]

62. Nothing sexier than a woman with a cigar!

[BeachBaby]

63. Tangerine - where abouts are you located?

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have you at my meetup in July!!!!

[Tangerine LaBamba]

68. I'm in Alexandria, VA, right across the river

from the place where President Obama and his family live.

I would LOVE that, but July is a time when it's all family, all the time. DC and the Fourth of July, you know.

But, boy, do I expect pictures and stories FOR DAYS, dammit.

[BeachBaby]

71. Damn that family!

:rofl:

You know I keed. The date of my hopefully epic meetup is July 25th. If you can somehow figure out a way to be here, I would love it. Quite an honor.

Have a good night! :hug:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

75. Sleep tight, BB.........

Sweet dreams - that's an order....................

[Arugula Latte]

4. Cheapass chardonnay. I think it's Crane Lake. I didn't even look at the label.

It was open in the frig...Probably cost, like, three bucks. Times is teh tough.

[BeachBaby]

19. I hear ya, babe.

I've found myself to be constantly looking for sales/generic brands these days.

Gotta do what ya gotta do. I know of what you speak.

Enjoy! :toast:

[Arugula Latte]

31. Thanks! Backatcha!

:toast:

[mcctatas]

6. my mommikins came over to keep me company and brought

a box of FRANZIA WHITE ZIN!!!! :woohoo:

[BeachBaby]

15. Yay mom!!!!

Ask her if she needs another daughter - Lord knows I could use another mom. :P

:toast:

[flvegan]

7. Amstel Light.

It's getting late and I'm doing the "take care of dogs" thing. Gotta keep the head clear.

[BeachBaby]

20. The Svedka waits until the pups are taken care of.

Enjoy the brew. :toast:

[flvegan]

21. Oh dear DuhStrange the Pious, no.

Beer before liquor, never sicker. Liquor before beer, you're in the clear.

I learned that (and almost nothing else) in college.

[3.14158675309]

30. Wine from a box, head full of rocks, Box full of wine, head full of rocks.

That's all I learnt in graduate skool.

[BeachBaby]

37. "DuhStrange the Pious".

To abbreviate - "DSP".

It's like a fucked-up combination of GDP and DS1.

That sounds about right. :7

[flvegan]

38. Genesis

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8756888&mesg_id=8756949

And yes, I'm running with it.

[3.14158675309]

45. Damn, I kinda wanted "Pious" for myself!

I mean, DS1 thinks "Piguy" is stoopid.... :(

[flvegan]

46. You wanted pious?

What, like barstools tell no tales?

:rofl:

[3.14158675309]

48. D'oh! How about "Pious the Stoolie"?

:rofl:

[flvegan]

50. How about...

I'm going to lose it typing this...

"spreading piety"?

So many levels, so very wrong. :rofl:

PiGuy, spreading piety.

I know a certain someone around here that may well put a hit out on me.

[3.14158675309]

52. Sowing the seeds of love!

I'm going to start praying for you now! :rofl:

[BeachBaby]

54. Put a hit out on you?

Yeah, that's about right. The Jersey thing.

[3.14158675309]

56. You'd hit it?

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

8. Ice cold Smirnoff vodka

Good enough for James Bond, good enough for me.

[BeachBaby]

23. Straight?

Damn. The only vodka I could ever do straight is Grey Goose - and it has to be ICE COLD. :)

You are tougher than I. Enjoy! :toast:

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

43. My dear Beach Baby

Smirnoff was the standard for years. When I am drinking on someone else's dime (say, at a hi-fi show) it is ALWAYS Grey Goose, but at $35/liter it is beyond this boy's expense account. The difference isn't nearly as great in terms of taste as in terms of price.

:hi:

[BeachBaby]

59. You're preaching to the choir, sweetie.

I only get the Grey Goose when someone buys me one, or when a nice bottle of it is under the Christmas tree. I wouldn't dare put the money out for it - single mommy, on a budget, dontcha know.

So, I have a bottle of Fris in the fridge - it does the job. ;)

[Kali]

9. just iced tea

it was freaking hot today and I need to rehydrate
was going to have a mojito with homegrown mint and limes, but I just don't feel like alcohol right now
maybe in the morning:rofl:

[Tangerine LaBamba]

12. Tea is a diuretic .......

iced tea isn't going to help your hydration. Straight water would be better.

But boring ......................

[Kali]

57. yeah but not as bad as rum, I know I'm asking for another kidney stone too

I have a bad no water habit - takes a really sweaty day before I will drink it - then look out I need at least a gallon.

[LeftyMom]

13. 1554

[sakabatou]

16. Rockstar

I need the caffeine.

[Aristus]

17. I started with a mini-bottle of Plata Hornitos 100% agave. And I've got a full bottle

of some good heavy red to work on later.

Today sucked. I'm getting smashed...

[BeachBaby]

61. Hey, you.

You okay? Talk to me. :hug:

[Aristus]

65. Hey, sexy...

I'm okay. Sort of.

My wife left for L.A. this morning. She'll only be gone for the weekend, thank God. When she's gone longer than three days or so, I feel like slitting my throat...

My dad went into hospice this afternoon, with no hope of pulling through this time. He's a tough old buzzard, but it looks like he's had his day...

I'm just relying on my DU friends to see me through my pity-party without judgement or condemnation...

Was all that spelled correctly? The room is starting to spin...

[cherish44]

26. Coffee...yeah it's 11:30 pm and I'm drinking coffee

I have a problem:crazy:

[Skip Intro]

27. About to move from Turkey and Diet Coke to Ice Cold Miller Lite.

And some kinda food...

[Lucian]

28. Rutherford Hill Merlot 2003.

It's been a really long fucking day.

[kentauros]

29. I'm waiting for my bladder to be too full to easily ignore.

Two large fountain Dr Peppers with dinner just now , then I may go back to the Arizona Tea Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail still sitting here...

(no alcohol as I will be cleaning things out in prep of a colonoscopy on Monday...)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. Boring old aitch two oh!

Hi, my dear BeachBaby!

:toast:

[3.14158675309]

41. Oh Nooes! Don't you know about the horrahs of dihydrogen monoxide???!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi3erdgVVTw

[CaliforniaPeggy]

47. LOL!

That is too funny....or too sad, depending on your point of view!


BTW, I am looking forward to meeting you! ;)

[3.14158675309]

51. And I you, CP! This meet-up is going to be epic!

:D

[Heidi]

64. I'm on my second long cup of Roma.

Time to stop or I'll be too wound up and shakey to do anything productive with my hands. x(

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

66. Corona

[BeachBaby]

67. Hey, Jersey girl.

So you're up, too. How's your night? :hi:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

70. I did hell of a lot of laundry

And there's still more to do. I've been stockpiling it in the guestroom (I have a lot of clothes).

[Fleshdancer]

69. a very decent cabernet sauvignon

This was a stressful week at work so this wine is very much deserved and appreciated. :)

[petronius]

72. Black Swan shiraz/merlot - gotta love that bottom shelf!

Pretty tasty, though - I'm sorry it's all gone now...

[orleans]

73. milk. n/t

[Aristus]

74. I'm halfway through a huge bottle of Merlot. I'm surprised I can still type!

B-)

edit: Oops! I guess I can't! :dunce:

[MrSlayer]

76. Moosehead and Cuervo tonight.

And some of that good green.

[ZombieHorde]

77. Chamomile tea. nt

[old mark]

78. Plain ol' cheap black tea ( the teabagger's favorite brand)

with a little sweetener and half & half - my 4th of the day.
I never touch that evil booze - leaves more for you who do.
