What are you drinking tonight?
I've got a bottle of Chianti to go with dinner and then I can't decide if it'll be bourbon or cognac. Please don't tell me to drink both.
I'm a silly drunk.

12. I do too... it's all I want.
I can drink the others... and they're okay... but if I get to choose, I can't resist getting cabernet.

2. Budweiser
Oops forgot, this is the Internet. I don't have to tell the truth.

5. Beer is great with burgers.
I may have to do that this weekend. Temps are near 80 and it's perfect grilling weather.

14. (Drooling like Homer Simpson) Ummmm. Beer and burgers....
Do not go well with my carb-free diet. We've cheated a few times with Bud, though.

3. I used to bartend, but I tend to settle for a standard
vodka and cranberry after work. My guy and I finish the night with a scotch.

I say go with the bourbon.

4. Vodka and cranberry sounds like a great before dinner drink.
What proportions of each do you use?

9. I count in my head and eyeball it. If you have a pourer on the bottle,
I count a moderately paced
One..
Two..
Three...and a half, leaving a little less than half alcohol in a glass packed with ice.

It'd be easier if I could show you.

8.  "Because it's there" counts as a reason, right?

10. No, not really.
I guess I'm not that good at drinking. If * were giving a speech tonight, though, I'd surely drink to kill the pain.
