Friday Night Tequila Buzz. Ask me anything.

I’m enjoying a Tequini, a Martini made with tequila. Tequila, dry vermouth, Angostura bitters, and a twist of lemon.

Tomorrow night: a Tijuana Speedball.

I love you all…

Enjoying a Brooklyn cocktail tonight.

Like a Manhattan, only with rye whiskey.

Can’t wait until this rye is gone. Just not my thing. I’m sticking to bourbon and single malt from now on.

Friday Night Gin Buzz. Ask me anything.

Enjoying an Imperial Gin; gin, lemon juice, lime juice, and club soda.

Yummy!

I love you all…

How I feel when I get a new suit with all new hot accessories:

Brand new bespoke suit with surgeon's cuffs and ticket pocket, hand-made shirt with French cuffs, silk tie, a cool pocket silk to make everything pop, silk suspenders, a nice pair of cordovan A. Testoni brogues, and slimline Skagen wristwatch.

Called out sick for tomorrow. Got a pounding headache. But mostly, it's just overwork.

I only slept about three hours last night, and I'm not optimistic about tonight.

Anyway, hoping some rest will do the trick.

The workload is taking its toll on my medical team. When I called in to my MA Supervisor, he told me he had just been diagnosed with bronchitis, and will be out for the rest of the week. Too much work and not enough rest is a powerful immunosuppressant.

I hate to complain to my beloved Loungers. But you are all always so kind and supportive. You give me the strength to keep going.

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.
