8. i was planning on having a "cocktail" earlier today

(and for the record i never refer to alcoholic beverages as "cocktails" but i've heard that word tossed around quite a bit on daytime tv shows...ala the view)

but i got tired and took a nap instead

i never start drinking until evening because i still have to take my dog out one last late time for the night.

so... for the past several hours i've been thinking i'm going to make a vodka & tonic--and i suspect i'll be getting around to that pretty soon

perhaps tomorrow i shall "cocktail" or start cocktailing earlier in the day.



and i keep forgetting to order a jar of stupid green olives for grocery pick up! damn!

(take care)

day-drinking is something I rarely do...

Drink heavily, feel good, feel sleepy, fall in bed.

Best done at night...

I guess my body has gotten used to the alcohol.

I don't know if that's a good thing or not...
