I am feeling overwhelmed. I have almost 1900 emails in my inbox-- and the oldest one is from TEN DAYS AGO.

I am starting to hate email. But not as much as I hate the phone.

Friends: SEVEN of you have emailed me in the past day to ask when we're getting together/lunching/having hot sex. I love you all. I am really, really lucky to have you in my life. I need to take the next three to five days to dig out of this hole or, if we hang out, you'll be hanging out with half a person because the other half will be worrying about what she's not gotten to yet. Wait a little longer and then I will give ALL ME to you.

In the meantime, a meme, stolen from [livejournal.com profile] brinshannara.

Unless you count my BIG key ring, in which case I think we're up to about 80.

49. How many years at your current job?
Five months. Really? Only five months? Weird. Kind of 8 months, though.

They all run together. Friday, I guess, because that's when David and I most often have sushi.

Bounty bars, which you only get in Europe. I rediscovered them in London and now I remember them fondly.

it's a cadbury thing, no? it's more of what ISN'T in the us as opposed to what's in europe/australia...europe and oz have pretty much the same candies and junkfood from what i've seen.

it's a mars thing, not cadbury, so it is odd its not available over there, as its a US company

We also have the Cherry Bounty, which is almost as good as the original (better than Cherry Ripe), and I think they're in dark choc too (?)

Plus, choc person or not, timtams.

Then again, notice the other part. 2nd time in my life. I've learned how to drink a little, without going overboard. (And I've still never gotten blacked-out vomitting drunk.)

Me too. Especially beer - a lot of people seem to hate beer, and yet still drink it to get drunk. I don't understand this; beer is so tasty, and it's sad that I can only have one or two at a time. Hard liquor, I still have a hard time with, even when it's mixed with lots of other stuff - a lot of mixed drinks are too sweet, and my body still remembers some bad nights of vodka...

-Rek
 
posted by [identity profile] researcher.livejournal.com at 08:23pm on 26/09/2008
I had four mixed drinks last night (way more than my usual one or two.) The first one was a bourbon and coke, not *that* sweet. After that, I drank whatever the bartender recommended, all of which used whiskey and various VERY sweet things. (My stomach is upset thinking about them, actually...)

I like good beer, with food usually. I would never drink beer just to get drunk on, though.

No worries about getting together. I know we said Wednesday but any old time will do for me, just let me know if you wanna postpone. Take all the time you need to get unstressed. It's whatever. No pressure. It's all okay. Love.

I was also gonna ask if you were gonna go see Abby tonight? I promised my parents I would stop by for dinner, but I might be able to get out of it if you wanna go, because I'm pretty interested to check out the show.
