I tried one once and I just don't like drinking out of metal cups. Not sure why, but I had a Moscow Mule once and never again because I didn't like the metal cup.

Aw shit, I can't really describe how fucked up this week is. Eloquence escapes me.

When is the GOP going to find a spine? Or remember where they were born? I truly hope that this is the beginning of the end for the GOP. I'd like to see history record 45 as the destructor of the Republican party.

Rum! Excellent choice.

I haven't drunk this much since I was 20, in the Army, and stationed in Germany. (All three factors required enormous quantities of alcohol. So put together...

Cab is always a good choice. I think the simple, uncomplicated table wines don't get enough ink. Simplicity has an allure all its own...

I brought you some coffee.

I stuck to my red wine last night, but I've been itching for martinis lately.

Hope you had a good night and have a relaxing weekend!

Only the mildest of hangovers this morning. I slammed a lot of water before going to bed.
