a short conversation with Dave
Jun. 13th, 2005 07:31 pmDave:
"I think what we should do now is go and gorge ourselves on cheap schwarmas. And then we should come home, and drink ourselves to oblivion. Because we have," and he looks, "almost two liters of whiskey. Which was on sale."
Looks keenly at neck of bottle.
"If intoxication were so immoral, would God have invented alcohol?" I give him a look. "Hey. As Ben Franklin said, 'Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.'"
We went shopping because it was so hot and muggy out and shops have a/c.
Successfully purchased:
1) 1.75 litres of Beefeater gin (on sale)
2) 1.75 litres of Canadian Club whiskey (on sale)
3) Six bottles of Arbor Mist wine-like-substance-with-fruit-flavors (on huge sale)
4) a cute skirt for me to wear to Dave's graduation party
5) several weird and irony-laden postcards for me to send to Baghdad.
In future updates I will have some very weird photos Katy sent from Iraq. (The weird pictures with them waving pistols were posed as a farewell card for the departing XO. Please, don't download them and Photoshop Abu Ghraib victims into them.)
I will also probably be drunk. Later!
