Christmas Eve - Cheers!

I cant believe I was up so early this morning, all full of energy!  I walked around the hood to gather my thoughts and make a plan.  And what was the plan you ask?  To make Bloody Mary's!!  I have been thinking about having some for a while now, actually I reached the point you could say I was "jonesing" for them.  The thought of these wonderful Bloody Mary's certainly made me walk faster than I might otherwise have. 

The best way to make a Bloody Mary is to use a shaker and good vokda, trust me when I say this is the way to go.  The drinks were superb, too much so because I got wasted as I sat outside and pretended to be a sun worshiper.  My daughter came by and sat outside with me until she grew tired of listening to me yammering on about getting old.  Upon her departure I passed out in my bed for several hours.

I woke up when sand dunes were forming in my mouth.....lordy I bet I chugged that Powerade zero faster than the speed of sound.  Bloody Mary's are a delicious drink but also full of salt!! No doubt I have retained every drop I drank all day as I feel all bloated and can't get my rings off.  Oh well it's Christmas Eve!!

Why am I sitting watching A Christmas Story (yep it is on for a solid 24 hours) and contemplating more alchohol?  It has occured to me that people might start thinking I am an alchoholic, that would be bad.  Of course I am not an alchoholic, I just discovered that wine is wonderful and it is the holiday season!!

Hmmmm what to drink....think....think...think.   Not like I have a boyfriend to harass me about drinking to much, I guess I could be thankful for that?  I am not feeling so thankful for being single around the holidays.  Why does this time of year make me want to be coupled so much more than any other timer?  I live in Florida for god sake, it isnt like it is all cold and snowy and I want extra body heat!!
