Feeling out of sorts that my memories are not staying put in their hermetically sealed mental compartments.
How dare people live, evolve, and generally move on with their lives.
Why aren't you all where I left you?
I thought I finally had you organized, somewhat figured out, a semblance of order,
and here you are surprising me with all this growing up nonsense.
The nerve.
The gall; continuing to live after the time we knew each other.
Least you could do is not leave clues where I might stumble, unawares, upon your updated info.
Now I have to revisit/reorder how I feel about everything all over again.
I think it's going to be a good thing,
or rather it is already a good thing, and I will come to that realization eventually.
Going to need a bigger brain, and a bigger bottle of tequila.
Excuse me, I must intoxicate, inebriate, and otherwise imbibe.
While at the Mexican Sushi Meetup, one of the diners ordrered a "Brazil Wax".
No, not the naughty hair removal procedure of the "bikini area", but rather the drink.
Featuring Cachaça, apparently the national liquor of Brazil, the Caipirinha and Brazilian Wax, are fast replacing the Mojito as the trendy libation of choice.
When asked what I thought of it, I replied, "Smooth. It sure won't leave hair on your tongue."
Drum roll and crash.
Duke of the Double Entendre I am.

Your Score: Bacardi 151
Congratulations! You're 134 proof, with specific scores in beer (80) , wine (83), and liquor (121).

All right. No more messing around. Your knowledge of alcohol is so high that you have drinking and getting plastered down to a science. Sure, you could get wasted drinking beer, but who needs all those trips to the bathroom? You head straight for the bar and pick up that which is most efficient.

This was an impulse buy.
A compulsion really.
I simply had to.
It's like a Red Bull and vodka drink, pre-mixed for you in the convenient can.
Granted, the ABV, at 6%, is lower than any RBV I've ever seen mixed, but it still allows for the strange and oddly attractive mix of physical responses to the alcohol combined with various stimulants.
Also note that I did not feel in any way that it was being presented or marketed to minors as I've already heard some pundits bandy about.
At least, not effectively. The Anheuser-Busch folks might have been trying, but my take is that they failed horribly.
If you want to see marketing to minors, look no further than Jack Daniel's line of malt beverages including "Watermelon Spike", "Downhome Punch", and "Lynchburg Lemonade".
All of which seem formulated to taste like various Jolly Rancher's hard candy.
All of which have been around for a long time.
At least since I was a minor, I can tell you that much (ahem.)
And don't get me started on Boone's Farm wines...
Seriously, don't let me start, I nearly lost a semester that way.
