BREAKING NEWS: MOJITO OUT, PISCO SOUR IN

With "Sex and the City" reruns all over the tube, ringing in 2007 with the show's signature Cosmopolitan seems so 2003. And a mojito? Been there, drank that. So toast the new year with what is looking to be one of the up-and-coming names on the cocktail circuit: the Pisco Sour. "People are starting to catch on that it's a very nice drink," said Peter Hall, bartender at the M&S Grill in downtown Minneapolis.

Is this when I chime in and say that I've never had a decent pisco sour outside of South America?
I'm so well travelled.
Apropos of nothing, the new yahoo toolbar has a spellcheck feature on it, although it doesn't recognize "mojito" or "pisco".

When you are as old as I, my dear
And I hope that you never are
You will woefully wonder why, my dear
Through your cataracts and catarrh
You could squander away or sequester
A drop of a precious year
For when your best days are yester
The rest'er twice as dear....

I am here for another half hour. I am wearing jeans and what a partner just referred to as "bedroom slippers." They are actually leopard-print flats, but I guess it is the whole eye-of-the-beholder thing. |

Perhaps if you were wearing only jeans and slippers to work today you too would be allowed to go home in 1/2 an hour.

Stop lying. You have neither received nor given any gifts. Stop lying.

sigh. i'm saying that since not only have I rec. my usual expected gifts but unexpected gifts from people I don't work directly for just very thoughtful. I'm touched, actually.
I just want some fucking sleep. several brutal deals just closed and it has been busy I'm drained. need sleep. good food, the kids get buried in toys and I sleep.
