Sippin' on gin and juice (drinking thread)

[BabyStandish]

Sitting here on the couch next to DH. We are both drinking beer and ignoring each other while we search the interwebz.

H & I love that show!

I seriously almost pee my pants. My mom, brother, SIL, and cousin and his GF are all watching it now. My grandma hates this show. She still watches it. Lol.

My BIL introduced us to it. We watched it for hours one day. 

[wannabmama]

I did not read all posts (but yay W I hope you get it) but popping in to say I love drinking threads. I had wine and then the last of my eggnog liqueur stuff for the season. Now we are in bed watching the debate bc we are 100 years old.
I hope everyone is having a great night and if H passes out I'll be back to read and catch up.

easilyunamused yes to food driven. This dog would have you believe she's starved. -.-

Do you ever catch yours pointing? While mine is full pointer, she comes from a versatile champion bloodline so she actually seeks, points, and retrieves. It's fun to watch.

Ok, wow, I will have to tell my MIL this next time. He does act like he hasn't eaten in weeks, and she always makes comments about how he must be "starved"! LOL Funny to hear that it's the breed that triggers that.

He will point, he seeks but mostly will not retrieve and bring back to us. He will get easily side tracked with other smells or whatever will catch his attention.

I'm trying to decide if I want to keep watching "Making a Murderer" I saw the first episode and am debating watching the rest. What say you GKU?

I need to know if this is scary/gory. I think I want to watch it

From the episode I saw it is not scary or gory at all. It is a lot of talking with captions and interviews of people from now and back in the 80's. There are also a lot of landscape shots. The first episode moved slowly for me. It is like Dateline and 48 hours, but not nearly as fast paced. And there are 10 episodes. It's a documentary.

easilyunamused also for the record I'm pro Moscow mules...or their even sweeter cousin, dark n stormy...either way ginger beer + booze = happy wanna.

[penguin129]

W It shows how corrupt law enforcement can be.

[penguin129]

starbuck27 I was like WHOA what did I miss in the other 3 pages. Glad it came out of nowhere. Sounds like a very funny story.

[bradysalon]

I'm here! Watching the debate and about to polish off this bottle of wine! Fuck going back to work. This week sucked.

[penguin129]

W Maybe I didn't word that right. It is like Dateline in that it talks about a crime comitted. The graphics etc, at least at this point are nothing like Dateline, but like I said I am only one episode in. Maybe I should watch the next couple just for you and report back.

:::Whitney is talking to herself::::

It's ok... I'm talking back to you. My FIL asked DD the other day if I always talk to myself when I'm shopping. I do it out in public. So at least this is online.

[wannabmama]

MH is asleep and my dog is having dreams and groaning and crying it's so funny I'm dying laughing but trying not to wake H up.

I'm eating Nutella. As dessert. NOT A SNACK!

Oh Pippa...

I had a piece of chocolate when I got home from work. As a snack. Before I made dinner.

So there.

[ourcrazynavylife]

Best chic flick available on Amazon/Netflix/on demand? ? ?
I'm home alone with wine & leftovers and plan to take full advantage of the best spot on the couch.

ETA: question marks not crazy emojis

[ourcrazynavylife]

I settled on the longest ride because I don't have the energy to figure out making the Xbox go to Netflix.

Remotes. Have. Too. Many. Buttons.

I think we need a story swap thread. I bet there are some amazing stories in this group. Not tonight cuz I'm sleepy. But soon.

Like the innocent boat lunch date that turned into a very scary storm?

Have you gone to the dr?

I've only had it since Sunday/Monday. Its more annoying than anything.

It just sucks cause I was sick before this and had a sinus infection. I was over that for about 2 weeks and now this.

I'm glad I went to the doctor- the nebulizer really helped.
