Waiting for the results of my states primary has got me freaking out. Its also got me thinking about how much I love all you guys. Regardless of who we're rooting for I think the one thing we all share is an incredible dedication to the democratic process.
Mr. bunnies and I would probably be separated if I unleashed all my thoughts on him. And most of my friends would have already disowned me (and some have). They all put up with a LOT... but as we all know, those who are not full-fledged political junkies are quickly fed up with our non-stop political speak.
And for the first time... I will be fighting for a Senate candidate for a full year before the election. Go Jay Buckey! :) I probably never would have made such a commitment if it werent for DU.
With few exceptions... we all have our moments of suckyness and shit-headed snark-faced posts - but all told... This place totally fucking ROCKS!
Heres to us. :toast:

1. I agree. MY SO thought I had lost it the other night |
|
after the Iowa caucuses, when I was ranting and raving about why didn't John Edwards do better and then went to the bar with my writers' group and foolishly had a couple of boilermakers (THAT was smart!).

4. Huh? Please 'splain the chocolate vodka/Bailey thing to me... |
|
Is there such a thing as chocolate vodka that I've been unaware of, or are you mixing Bailey's and coffee and vodka?
Either way, I say BRILLIANT!!!!

9. I THINK there is a chocolate version of Bailey's |
|
I know that there is a chocolate liqueur made by Godiva. Tasty, and you have to be really careful.

Three Olives brand chocolate vodka. I will give you the secret recipe. Here we call it a "fuzzy buzzy"... yeah, bunny actually is my nickname. :) Anyway.... 1 part Creme de Cacao (clear) - 1.5 part Baileys irish creme (or less expensive equivalent) - and 1 part Three Olives chocolate vodka. Serve with ice and cold coffee to taste. SOOOOO delicious.

There's very few people that I'm close friends with that I can spout off about politics.
