NIGHTLY DRINKING THREAD

[hobbesgal]

We drink here.  Every night.  BECAUSE WE CAN!!!111!!

Now that that's out of the way, what's in your cup?

If you say water, then...


JK.  Maybe?  But seriously, tell me what you're drinking.

[hobbesgal]

I'm drinking water right now. LOL. Because drinking iN THE LIBRARY IS FROWNED UPON IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT!

Rumchata and coffee.

[madamewaffles]

H2O for me too. I won't be drinking tonight but tomorrow DH is going away for an overnight work trip and I'm so totally excited to have all the drinks and watch trashy TV while he's gone.

[Lollipop]

Sadly, I won't be drinking tonight. However, I will be hanging out at a liquor store, training for my new job. Besides, the wine I currently have is truly awful, so I'm sticking with water till I find something better

We now have cheap fake Bailey's. What should I do with it?!

[hobbesgal]

I keep thinking that I need to buckle myself into my swivel chair.

Put it in hot chocolate!

It's not bedtime for the LOs yet so the wine must wait.

You could have a lot more fun with swivel chairs if they did have seat belts!

Today we had a lock down because there was "threat outside the building". So I was stuck in a hot bathroom with 20 six-year-olds for almost an hour. One was so hot, he almost threw up on a classmates head.

With that said.. I want all the wine in the world BUT I am so fucking sick I can't drink. I think I am just going to take nyquil and go to bed (at 5:30pm). Worst. Day. Ever.

I'm tired. It's not even 3p and I'm ready for bed. I think this one coffee is going to be it for me.

Sneak some vodka in your bottle. Problem solved.

I need some hard liquor tonight. I've dealt with imbeciles all day.

DH and I are starting to watch Sons of Anarchy. Does it get better after the first episode?

We honestly watched the first one and didn't keep up. I know it's breaking the TV show rules. We're just impatient like that.

[hobbesgal]

I'm reading fun water facts now since I'm cataloging a book called "Your Water Footprint". Fact: One-third of the Earth's surface is covered by the Pacific Ocean.

[hobbesgal]

Things I never thought I would be doing: reciting facts about water in a drinking thread. OMG, I need a drink.

I wouldn't mind if MH went away for a night.  I love him, but I also love eating junk food and watching trashy TV in peace..

I hear ya! DH works from home so he is there ALL. THE. TIME. I'm soooo excited for some me time.

Water fact #2: The water footprint of 1 cloth diaper is 4 gallons vs 144 gallons for a disposable diaper.

Wow...that is crazy.

[hobbesgal]

Where's the part in this book where they give me the water footprint for vodka?

OMG.  I went to the index to see what was under "V" (cause librarian) and there is:

vodka, water footprint of, 91

Also, FTR, I want to say I love you and your drinking threads, hobbesgal.

Bottle of wine: 203 gallons of water
Bottle of beer: 98 gallons
Vodka: 80 gallons
Gin: 114 gallons
Whiskey: 322 gallons

Moral of the story: drink more vodka.

I plan on it someday when/if we have our kids! This factoid is handy for my naysaying SIL. (Not that I am bashing those who use disposables.)

[Sparkly]

I have a question, it's important.

If I don't actually finish the glass, I just keep adding a little more, and a little more...it's still the same glass, right? So I'm only having 1 glass? Right?
