I need more bottles so I can celebrate any arrest of 45 or his progeny.
I think I’ll practice my celebratory dance moves too.

Yes. It is traditional to celebrate on the eve of a holiday. Tomorrow will be the start of a new year. B

I may just open a bottle of red instead. I will have to have some for the Stephanie Miller Sexy Liberal Inaugural party on Saturday

I've never liked the way alcohol makes me feel, though I like the taste of much of it. Lip balm will have to do.

Does it really taste like champagne, or is the lip balm even a real thing?

and, yes, they use lower case letters. It's an acronym for "evolution of smooth." Quaint. It's usually available during winter holiday season, so they may still have some this year. I got mine a year ago and have been keeping it on ice. It comes in the form of a ball, and is therefor less soft than the ones that come in a normal lipstick tube. It tastes - very lightly - like a mildly sweet champagne to me. It's a very pleasant taste. Some stores in my area carry the brand but I'd think your best bet would be their website (Google is your friend.) If it is already too late for this year, I deeply apologize.

Maybe the brand name or where you got it so we can order some.
Due to the pandemic and masks, I have not been wearing lipstick and my lips are getting dry. Your lip balm sounds like a good solution.

And if they are out of champagne, consider a flavor or a set of flavors that come in the standard screw-up tube. Those are softer and moister

Where the hell were you two months ago?

Oh, and by the way, is there really such a thing as champagne-flavored lip balm?

but will have some champagne tonight and go to bed knowing that a nuclear war won't start overnight.

In the meantime, I might have a cappuccino or some other special celebratory coffee drink.

I am lying in bed wondering the same thing. I think after I get up I will open my bottle of champagne then drink it when the spirit moves me. Don’t forget to raise a glass to all who didn’t live to see this day!
