I Feel Like Getting Drunk.....

[SiobhanClancy]

God,I HATE Christmas!
So...what...out of what I have here on hand...should I consume?

[liberalhistorian]

1. Why do you hate Christmas, if you don't

mind my asking?

[SiobhanClancy]

3. I used to love it...

But my family is nearly all gone now...and still I feel obligated to observe it,and I'd just rather not.

[demnan]

2. Have some tea or soda it's only 1:30 in the afternoon

if you start drinking now, you'll be asleep by 7:00.

[SiobhanClancy]

4. Not going to start right now..

Have to go up to Harvard Square and do a few errands....but my father used to say "It must be 5:00 somewhere":)

[demnan]

10. On the other hand

I just went to the GD Primary forum again (I know masochistic) and I'm ready for a gin and tonic right now.

(and I don't drink anymore but if I read any more of that shit I think I'll start again).

[SiobhanClancy]

17. I hear that...

It's really making me sick,and I've about had enough of it...even on a read-only basis it's getting to be too much!

[meegbear]

5. I'll be right over with cognac and cigars

[SiobhanClancy]

6. Cigars????

Don't tempt me!:)

[meegbear]

11. Got my Ashton Prime Ministers ...

6 7/8" x 48. Makes me look butch and you oh, so sexy. :evilgrin:

[SiobhanClancy]

19. Easy for you to look Butch...

not so easy for me to look sexy:) I had my day,though...I really did.

7. Jameson's, lass!

As if there were a need to ask. ;)

[SiobhanClancy]

12. Here's a secret...sshh...don't tell...

I actually prefer the Protestant whiskey(Bushmills)!

[greatauntoftriplets]

15. Ah, you beat me to the Jameson's.

I mean, the suggestion of it.

[KansDem]

32. Jameson's...Bushmills...

I think we can all agree: no one does whiskey like the Irish

[markus]

33. Here, Padraig18, let me by yer next

No hard feelings about the rules dispute earlier today, I hope.

'Sláinte!'

[curse10]

8. Bailey's

yum yum yum!

:-)

[Fovea]

9. Perhaps a nice red wine

maybe a Pinot Noir,
maybe mulled.

[Drifter]

13. Gotta go with the Patriot Brew ...

I'm a big fan.

Cheers

14. Berkshire Brewing company

HOliday Ale. Different batch each year. Outstanding!!!

[sleipnir]

16. Get a Sam Adams Holiday 12 Pack and drink the whole thing!

That's my plan at least...

You get the Fezziwig Ale and the Cream Stout, amoung others (yum...)

I may drink half of it tonight celebrating Festivus, we'll see!

[Rainbowreflect]

18. How about eggnog with all of the above.

The first one might taste funny, but after that you will be fine.

[SiobhanClancy]

20. lol...

probably true! I mean just think...really think...what goes into a Long Island Iced Tea,and how easy they are to take:)

[Rainbowreflect]

21. I hope your mood improves.

:hug:

[jonnyblitz]

22. I feel like doing the "other thing". I don't drink.

I will be spending XMAS bymself while my sister works. The rest of my family is waaaay up in Maine. My sister and family who live in Amsterdam are here and in Maine also.
I plan to sneak up to Boston real soon and hang out with Rational Rose and we are comin to get you, too. Just a warning. :hi:

[SiobhanClancy]

24. Hi jonny...

I'd be better off doing the other thing too...and haven't actually gotten drunk for a l o n g time.
You'd better not sneak up here and forget about me!:)
:hi:

[jonnyblitz]

30. no

we were gonna come get you whether you liked it or not...

[StopTheMorans]

23. I say eggnog with ALL of the above:)

tis the season!

[SiobhanClancy]

25. Hi Sean!

Haven't seen you around for a while...hope all is well. But...eggnog with Sam Adams? Ya think??

[StopTheMorans]

29. hey Barbara!

haven't been around in awhile. I've been really busy at work, and just haven't had the time. Why not eggnog with Sam Adams, you never know until you try;)

[jonnyblitz]

28. we were just talking about you last night.

figured you were holed up somewhere with a new girlfriend. have a nice holiday!! :hi:

[StopTheMorans]

31. au contraire mon ami

there have been some things of that sort that have been keeping me busy, mostly work though, and some traveling. I'm going home for the holidays (WNY) tonight, happy holidays yourself!

[RebelOne]

26. White wine. Don't drink the hard stuff.

[quispquake]

27. I found the world's GREATEST SHOT using Jamesons

It also uses Bailey's Irish Cream, and is chased by Guinness:

First pour 3/5 of a shot of Bailey's
Next pour 2/5 of a shot of Jamesons inside of the Bailey's (i.e. try to have the Bailey's surround the Jamesons)

Next drink it down, and immediately chase it with the Guinness...

Merry Christmas!!!

[flamingyouth]

34. It will be over soon

I certainly understand your sentiments about the holiday. I feel much the same way, and so do most of my friends and family! At any rate, however you celebrate (and whatever you drink!), I hope it is peaceful and relaxing, at the very least. Cheers to you and all the best for 2004! :toast:

:hi:
