I'm having a Multiple Orgasm. Anyone else want one?



Amaretto, Kahlua, and Irish Cream, shaken with ice, then strained into an ice-filled highball glass, then an ounce of tequila floated on top.

Nice.

Happy Saturday night, everyone!

Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything.

Two shots to get the party started.

Now, in defiance of a ninety-degree day here in the Pacific Northwest, a Frostbite; tequila, crème de cacao, crème de menthe, and cream. I don’t have any crème de cacao or cream at the moment, so I substituted a couple of slugs of Irish Cream.

Makes for a pretty blue-green, yummy cocktail.

I love you all…

Last "off" night of the three-day weekend. Enjoying a Planter's Punch.

Dark rum, Cointreau, pineapple juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and grenadine. Also, since I have a bottle of pineapple vodka, I threw a dash of that in there, as well.

Yummy!

My weight loss/muscle bulk-up continues apace. Just did another try-on of the favorite garments in my wardrobe, and most of them fit again.

I will probably have to get at least some of my items re-tailored. But exercise and hard work seem to be doing most of the work.

Trump seems to be trying to lose the election. That has me worried.

It felt very much in 2016 that he was trying to lose that one, and look what happened.

The more abysmally inept he shows himself to be, the tighter the grip he has on his debased, howler monkey supporters.

Now that I finally have a bottle of creme de menthe, I'm trying a Jade.

White rum, Cointreau, créme de ménthe, lime juice, and some sugar.

Tasty. I like it. For a cocktail, it tastes a lot like a medium-dry Riesling with a touch of mint.

Hope everyone is having an enjoyable weekend.

I love you all…

Friday Night Vodka Buzz. Ask me anything.

Had a Cadillac Margarita with dinner. Dee-licious!

Now a vodka and tonic with a generous helping of limoncello.

Looking forward to a nice, relaxing three-day weekend!

I love you all…

The Friday Night Buzz Thread will be delayed tonight.

I am meeting Mrs. Aristus and her work colleagues for dinner tonight after clinic, and I don't know what time I will be home. If FNBT is postponed until tomorrow night, I'll let everybody know.

I love you all...

Scored a day off today. Anyone want to hang out?

I'm getting the house ready, since my step-daughter is coming to town for a visit later tonight.

I've been popping in and out of DU in-between chores.

I just read an unconfirmed report that our beloved In_The_Wind died sometime in the last year.



It's been almost two years since I spoke directly with her, and I know she was in poor health. I will miss her very much. Please reply if you know any more about this than what I've just reported.

May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest, good friend...

Now a Black Devil. Rum and dry vermouth. Basically a rum Martini. Nice and relaxing.

I’m thrashed. Very good but very tiring day.

I love you all…

About Aristus

I truly believe that we will all live in peace and brotherhood someday. And so that I don't lose my faith in humanity, I will live my life as if that day had already happened.
