Friday afternoon and the bar is OPEN!!! So, what's your pleasure?

[prolesunited]

How did your week go? What are you planning for the weekend?

[GOPisEvil]

1. It's been a LONG week!

I'd like a top shelf margarita on the rocks, no salt! Thanks!

I'm seeing a couple bands on Saturday night, and hanging out with friends tomorrow during the day. I'm free Sunday, though. :D

[prolesunited]

11. Hey, I've served you before

I got that no salt part down. :-)

Hey, you're free Sunday. How about jetting into Chicago? :hi:

[GOPisEvil]

18. Sure! Got that plane that travels at light speed?

I'd love to come back! :hi:

[XNASA]

2. Would it be OK if I fired up a nice cigar?

I figure I should ask first.

[meegbear]

14. I'll be right over with the cognac ...

whacha smoking?

[XNASA]

23. It's early, so I'll choose a MonteCristo Memory.

But that sounds great! Thanks!!

[prolesunited]

16. OK, but please do it

in the designated smoking section. We got a nice comfy lounge for the smokers and the air purifiers are whirring.

BTW, sorry I can't come hear your swan song tomorrow, but I have to work. I've already taken a ton of time off there.

[XNASA]

26. I guess I should avoid Demman.

I rehearsed last night for the first time in 6 weeks. It's just like falling off of a bike.

[russian33]

3. Stoli martini, 3 olives, dry..

..long week, and it ain't over yet, still at work....relaxing weekend ahead though

[prolesunited]

19. I'm still at work, too

Don't let it stop you from starting the party. :party:

How are you planning to unwind?

[russian33]

20. Friends are celebrating their new house..

...with a nice cook-out in Willaimsburg, Brooklyn...so there will be drinking, eating, drinking, socializing and maybe some drinking

[eyesroll]

4. I'm heading to Arab Fest tonight,

...and then I have to get up at an ungodly hour tomorrow to attend a work function in lovely Carol Stream, Ill.

I'll take whatever you've got that will put me to sleep at exactly 10 p.m., and wake me up at exactly 5 a.m. Cheers.

[prolesunited]

21. This is a bar

NOT a pharmacy. 5 a.m. Yikes! The Arab Fest sounds cool, though. Have fun! :hi:

[eyesroll]

33. Eh. It was worth a try...

:hi:

[never cry wolf]

5. Une vin rouge, s'il vous plait

I'm lying, scotch on the rocks with a splash of eau.

It's been a long week, and I'm feelin weak.

[prolesunited]

24. Well, here's a stiff one

to make you feel hale and hearty. :hi:

What's this with everybody having such long weeks, anyway? Some kind of epidemic?

[mopinko]

6. beer here

hiya proles. how a about a goose? ipa, or a porter? good week. busy updating my website. getting ready to go on a nice long vacation.
how bout you?

[prolesunited]

28. Well, that's an easy one!

Nice to see someone had a good week. I'll take a look at your Web site later.

So, where are you going on vacation? What do you plan to do there?

I just got back from cycling across Iowa. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

[mopinko]

30. going to maine

driving/camping with hubby and 3 of the 5 kids. taking 2 weeks. staying at arcadia national park. gonna cut out, myself, to go to the convention, tho.
wow, cycling across iowa, huh? how long did that take? by yourself?

[EstimatedProphet]

7. I'd like a nice dry Martini please

Dry gin, extra dry vermouth. So dry I get thirsty looking at it. So dry the humidity goes down in a 3 foot radius around the glass. Shaken, not stirred.

[prolesunited]

29. So, you said DRY, right?

;-)

Loved the description. For that, you get a second one on the house. Enjoy!

[commander bunnypants]

8. where is the no smoking area?

Cold beer and goldschlager

DDQM

[prolesunited]

31. Right over here by me.

We have a smoker's lounge as well. They don't even have to go outside or anything. It's hermetically sealed, so you won't even get a whiff. The walls are glass so no one feels isolated.

Keep up the great work! I quit about three years ago. I didn't drink for months or hang out with smokers because that was one of my triggers. Now I can drink with smokers and I'm fine. Just hang in there.

[greekspeak]

9. Manhattan...and do not slip me any of the cheap stuff...I am watching

Hehe!

[prolesunited]

32. Cheap stuff!!!

Only the best for my friends, of course. It's ALL top shelf in here. :-)

[arbusto_baboso]

10. Make mine a Zombie, and mix it strong.

I've had a hellaciously bad week, so I need to relax.

[prolesunited]

38. Poor baby!

Here's your drink. Pull up a seat and tell me why your week was so hellaciously bad.

[arbusto_baboso]

70. Budget cuts.

Several good friends got laid off (I know, bad for me but worse for them.). Doing my own work plus a chunk of theirs. Close friend is going back to England to be with a terminally ill family member. Don't know when she's coming back to the States. AND they found termites in my garage.

[southpaw]

12. Big plastic tumbler full of Boone's Farm with lots of ice!

I ain't picky... just thirsty!

[prolesunited]

39. Well, I'll certainly give you the "ain't picky" one

That stuff brings back fond memories of my misspent youth. Tastes just like Kool-Aid, with a mightier kick.

I think you need to be barefoot and hangin' out under a tree by a small stream for it to have just the right effect, though.

[liberalitch]

13. glen livet.... lots of ice!

My week went swimingly....
and yours?

[prolesunited]

40. That's nice to hear

Lots of people seem to have had rough weeks.

Mine? My property taxes skyrocketed and I may lose my job or get a huge pay cut, but other than that, life's great. :-) <--- Quickly polishes off a vodka and cranberry and pours another one.

[mwdem]

15. How about a nice, tall T & T?

verrrry cold...

[prolesunited]

42. Uh oh!

I'm going to have to plead ignorance here. What is that?

[mwdem]

43. Oops! Tanqueray & Tonic,

with a twist of lime.

[prolesunited]

45. D'uh

Here you go. As a matter of fact, have two since I kept you waiting so long.

[mwdem]

46. Thanks, I needed that!

Stressful week.

[Q3JR4]

17. Rum and coke for me.

Eh, week's over with and I don't work the weekends. What can I say other than that?

What about you?

[prolesunited]

44. Any particular brand of rum?

I have to work tonight and tomorrow night. I had hoped to be able to quit my part-time job, but I just got dealt a couple of financial blows and that just doesn't look possible right now. :-(

I do have Sunday off and the weather forecast is great, so I'll be out cycling. Housework be damned!

[AmandaRuth]

22. definitely cognac, in honor of Rick James

a big snifter full while i dance around the living room with the stereo on. for the weekend, i am trying to get another pco to go out walking with me, since i am a beginner and have lots to learn. no takers this weekend, but yes for next.

Our regular car is in for service and we have a loaner for the weekend, so a big road trip to the mountains is planned. Nothing drives like a rental!!!!

[prolesunited]

49. I toast to him certainly is appropriate.

What's a pco?

And have fun in the mountains! Which ones?

[pagerbear]

25. Frozen margarita with salt--and keep 'em coming!

Oh, and can you arrange for a sunny veranda overlooking a beach and a really hunky cabana boy?

[prolesunited]

47. Will this one do?

ENJOY!!!

[pagerbear]

57. God yes!

[redqueen]

27. Stoli on the rocks with lime

Week's been the usual hell (billing). How about you?

Weekend is shopping for school clothes and housework/yardwork.

Tonight, I'm drinking to Rick.

[prolesunited]

50. That would be a fitting tribute

Be sure and slip some of his music on as well.

I'm avoiding stores and housework. It's supposed to be a beautiful weekend so I'll be out on my bike.

[redqueen]

59. You're right

it's supposed to be lovely here too this weekend (cool, thank Goddess!) so I should focus more on yardwork than housework... but when you have two little ones, you can't let the housework go for too long. :)

Will most definitely be listening to Rick tonight.

:toast:

[Susang]

34. You sit down, I'll get you a Skyy and Cranberry!

Myself, I'll be drinking soon enough. :-)

[prolesunited]

51. A woman after my own heart

And you remembered, too. I'm touched.

Have a great weekend! :hi:

[Susang]

73. I think I will

I'm going to see Vendooza on Saturday, wanna meet up? Or do you have other plans (wink wink)?

[madrchsod]

35. i think i`m actually going

to toast to the demise of the republican party here in illinois and go to my son`s new place in oak park...

[prolesunited]

52. Hahahahaha!

Yep, stick a fork in them. They're done. :bounce:

Have one for me. :toast:

[Aftershock]

36. I want anything that'll get me drunk in 1.46 minutes.

:)

Hint: Bacardi 151 ;)

[prolesunited]

53. Damn! We've got a problem here.

It took me waaaaay too long to get to you. Are you drunk yet or should we just make it a triple?

[jakefrep]

37. Campari & soda w/a splash of orange juice for me please...

...No big plans other than a trip to the county fair.

[DemOverseas]

41. Campari

I'll join you with the Campari. Just OJ with ice and heavy on the Campari.

[prolesunited]

55. Comin' right up

Sorry it took so long. Perhaps I need to get some extra help in here.

[prolesunited]

54. So, what are your food splurges at the fair

I had some cotton candy not too long ago. I soon remembered why I stopped eating it.

Do you look at the animals, stop by the pies and jams, or just go for the rides and midway?

[jakefrep]

62. Fair Food...

A typical meal at the fair:

Ribeye sandwich from the beef producers' tent
French fries w/salt & vinegar
Milkshake from the dairy producers' stand
Funnel cake for dessert

I usually go to the fairs for the horse racing. Dad owns a couple of harness horses that race at the fairs around where I live.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

48. A Fantome Saison, please...

I have Sunday off, but I'm not sure what we're going to do yet. :beer:

[prolesunited]

56. Cool bottle!

Always hard to decide what to do with those precious times off. Sometimes laying around in bed eating and reading is a perfect antidote. Have fun whatever you decide.

[Downtown Hound]

58. A nice cold ale, Brown

for the Downtown Hound.

Gracias.

[prolesunited]

63. Sorry to leave you hanging

I got distracted.

Brown, for the Downtown Hound.

De nada.

[TheMightyFavog]

60. Jack and coke, heavy on the Jack.

Fuck it, just give me the damn bottle of Jack!

Being a Gungeon mod can suck sometimes.

[prolesunited]

65. In recognition of your exemplary service

in the Gungeon, I present you with

[Beaverhausen]

61. A big marguerita kicked my ass last night so I better have another

and how about some salsa and chips?

[prolesunited]

66. That must have been a pretty big one

Hair of the dog and all that.

And some salsa and chips, compliments of the house.

[flamingyouth]

64. Chardonnay, please

It was a great week. I took a vacation at home, reading, watching movies, eating lunches out with friends. It was about as decadent as I get. :)

[Mara Steele]

67. Glad you had a good week...

:hug:

Hey, do you want to just get a bottle & split it? :D

[prolesunited]

68. Sounds awesome!

Sometimes those kinds of vacations are best. You don't feel like you need time off from your vacation.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

69. Diet pepsi

week was long but I am heading to the airport to pick up this beautiful blonde and I might not take her back to the airport on Monday.....I think I'll keep her all to myself :evilgrin:

[prolesunited]

71. Rub it in

Why don't you? Some of the rest of us aren't quite so lucky. In fact, it's been a month since I've seen my sweetie and no end in sight. :cry: :cry: :cry:

So, you just take your diet pepsi and rush into the open arms of a beautiful blonde without even a glance back at those you've left in your wake. I'll be OK. Really I will.
:-( :-(:-(:-(:-(:-(:-(




Just kidding! Have an awesome weekend. My best to you both. :hi:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

74. Thanks...and you know I am rooting for you

[yvr girl]

72. mmm.... Ceasar or Bellini or Paralyzer (vodka not gin)... can't decide...

surprize me.

Then there's always the shooter option. Shooters have a way of making me feel naughty, which is good for a weekend.

[prolesunited]

75. Sadly, I have to bail on my bartending duties

Somebody is welcome to step in.

[Swamp Rat]

76. Vacation begiiiiiins... NOW!

I'll take a half-liter Chimay Blue Label and a frosted mug please... and a Macanudo (maduro) "Prince of Wales":smoke:
