Well, I accomplished filling my wine glass and turning on Lego Star Wars. But that was all I did before passing out.
Audrey, if you need to talk about dicks and orgasms and your phone isn't co-operating, you know that you can always talk to us about it.
A waste of time? My opinion on that game has, and will always be, that I am more offensive than a deck of cards and need no prompting to be entertaining.
So, my friend with the transplanted lungs wants me to sing a "thanks for your prayers" song on his behalf in the church tomorrow. While flattering, as both a non-member and non-believer, it is hugely inappropriate for me to be doing that. I am torn on what to do.
He's your friend and he asked you. You're singing it for him, not God. Go for it. Paul Newman and Joanne Woodard were happily married until the day he died. Yet, they both had onscreen roles that required them to make out with other people - didn't mean they felt any attraction to their costar or lost any conviction about their feelings toward their spouse.
I think it's bullshit. Way to put someone on the spot for no good reason. Why doesn't he sing the song since he's the one that benefited from the prayers? Also no one tell the donor or the transplant surgeon they aren't getting a "Thank You" song.
In fairness, he's still in the hospital. The boyfriend and I have been working our way through DVDs of The Muppet Show. It has become a googling frenzy of "who the fuck is that?" and "holy shit, is he/she still alive?".
Well, then you should sing this at church: And, BlackJesus, I think the surgeon probably thinks he's God already, so . . .
Grr, that reminds me. There is a kid I was in band with in middle school and high school, plus we went to the same high school and college. He went to med school, wants to be a surgeon, and I believe is in his first or second year of residency right now. My mom bumped into him and his wife and young kid at church one morning and was totally gah gah over this asshole. I always felt weird around this dude..he was very unsettling, very confident, very God-complex-y. And my mom is all like "ZOMG you guys should totally double date when you get back!!" Please kill me now. The professors in med school try really, really hard to make all the little doctors come out with "the air" (I knew a girl in med school and she would complain about it--not sure how she made it through the interview process to get in to start with) but this kid has had it since middle school. I don't want to even think how bad it is now.
Look at it this way, if the the most traumatic thing you do this is sing a song in church for a friend, that's a pretty good week.
I just made my first flaming Dr. Pepper. I have ADD, and I love fire, and I'm an alcoholic, and these are easy to make, and cheap. I don't see tonight ending very well for me.
Eh, their beer is no stronger or weaker than our micros. I am developing a taste for their wine however. Riesling is good, but Gewurztraminer is something altogether different. Huge mineral and earth taste. Very complex, especially for a $16 bottle. Awesome stuff. Their beer, Ayinger and Paulaner might be a couple of the best breweries on earth. I am obsessed with Paulaner's Oktoberfest. Ayinger makes the best hefeweizens and dunkelweizens. Hacker Pschorr is awesome too. I could live happily in Bavaria until my blood congeals from too much pig fat. Had my first at an Irish bar of all places. They are ridiculously good. The only way to drink light beer.
Off to a gender reveal party. Seriously? We really need a party for you to say "boy" or "girl", you crazy attention whore? How about a who cares? party? Fuck this nonsense. I'm not doing any if this shit if/when I ever get knocked up.
Some friends of ours threw a co-ed baby shower when Mrs. Noland was pregnant with #1. I thought a co-ed baby shower was the dumbest thing people could do for expecting parents. Apparently not. Gender reveal party takes the cake. Is the father down with this idea? What kind of people are these? Bring bourbon.
