Can we break out the booze yet?

I really need a drink! It's dumb, but I am completely heartbroken that we have to return our grill. I have wanted a grill for so long. And now I want to cry. (We can't keep it downstairs because it's our neighbors' patio area, and that would be unfair to them.)

So while I'm feeling bummed, I was sent to pick up some books from room G1 for my judge. But there is no G1. So I went to the library, and they told me to try 103 or 104. They weren't there. So I tried G9. They sent me to 609, who then sent me to 105, where I picked up 54 pounds of books and proceeded to smash them on my thumb in the elevator.

In the middle of the Great Book Hunt of '09, my dad has decided that he wants to talk to my mom about my brother. But he can't be an adult and just freaking call my mom. Oh no. He calls me and asks me to call my mom to find out if my brother has called her and told her about a phone call my dad and brother had. And I wonder why the H was scared to visit my family at Christmas!

Re: Can we break out the booze yet?

  • I've got a bottle in my desk we could share
  • Can you send some through the interwebs to my desk? Although I'm pretty sure it violates a county ordinance to possess booze in this building.

    I forgot to add the part where there really IS a G1 that I just couldn't find. As you may have surmised, they did not have the books.

  • it's noon somewhere, so i say go ahead! ?i may be about to attend a 3 hour lecture, but that can be improved with some boozing.

  • I am having a major hating the job market day right about now, so a virtual drink would be lovely.

    I'm on meds though so I can't have a real drink.  And I don't think they are even working because I'm still sick. Sad

    This week sucks.

    It's ok, I took an ethics class and it said drinking on the job during a bad day was ok. Wink  -  My boss is even a Lawyer and I've drank on the job with him Big Smile

    Well, it definitely has to be virtual since I'm still at work. But I'm thinking we might break open a bottle of pinot noir with dinner. We were given a bottle for our wedding and told that it should sit for a year. And since the H is making NY strip in the cast iron, it should go nicely.

  • I think I've got at least one bottle of Smithwick's in my fridge at work. If you can wait an hour until I'm at home, I can send you virtual Scotch from our bar.
  • OMG! Please; off to make a hot toddy!
    Slainte!
