1. Last night I made a newbie beer drinker mistake. I ordered a beer that I knew had a higher alcohol content than your average beer. It was served in a pint glass. I didn’t really think much about it and when everyone had a second round, I ordered another of the same ’cause that’s what everyone was doing. Usually higher alcohol beers are served in smaller glasses, so two beers would be only a little more alcohol than two regular beers. Two high alcohol beers in pint glasses? That’s more like 4 beers and I’m rocking one heck of a headache right now. I should have known better.
2. I have a lot of balls in the air right now. Normally I do a pretty good job of juggling, but this week I’ve had a lot of little things go wrong and they’ve added up to barely making deadlines. Nothing major – just having to make an extra phone call (that involved 20 minutes of wait time), discovering a cd with info I need was blank, an accidental hangover (see above), etc. So far, I’ve managed to pull everything off, but I sort of feel like my house of cards is about to fall. (How’s that for mixing metaphors LOL). On the bright side, Lowe’s just called and my new refrigerator has a dent. I was about to cry until they told me it’s small, near the back (ie. where it won’t be seen), and they’ll give me 10% off. I’ll take it.
3. Speaking of missing deadlines, I was supposed to post a review and do a giveaway today and I just didn’t get it written up. It WILL happen tomorrow and you are going to want to check it out. Go over and check out Mondetta’s spring catalog and think about what you’d like. Details posted tomorrow. ;o)
Hope your day is a bit more organized and a whole lot less windy than mine!
THose higher alcohol content ones will get you! I do love them though and ca never do 'light' beer anymore! But they creep up on you 🙂 Hope you get caught ok today and hangover goes away!!
I had after-work beers with a hashing buddy last night. Dogfish Head Barton Baton, DH Palo Santo, and a Delirium Nocturnum to finish. Luckily none of them came in a size larger than 10 oz.Water is your friend! (and Aleve…which I myself need to take a couple of…)
Look at you being a party animal on a Wednesday night ;)Love pretty much everything on that website!
It must be a ball dropping kind of week as I'm doing much of the same. This time of year always gets me.
That totally sounds like me and my humongous wine glasses. I'll wake up feeling completely horrible and say to the husband "I only had one or two glasses".Once…to prove a point, he filled up one of my favorite wine glasses…and it accepted an ENTIRE bottle of wine :DThose glasses are HUGE!
I am the same a Julie . . . I do not like beer, but I Love wine and have to watch how much is poured into the larger than normal glasses.
Aleve, a liter of water, and some oatmeal later…headache gone! 🙂
ha, I thought #2 would be diff! 🙂 Can't wait for the giveaway! when you posted about their stuff last time I visited their site and CUTE!!!! Zip Fizz will make that headache go away! 🙂
I wish my day was more organized but in a short week I am always scrambling. Chin up and make it a great day!
Water, water, water. Hope your headache is gone soon!
ugh, no fun! Drink some nuun or something, that always works for me. Feel better!
Yummy Beer 🙂 I am missing deadlines all over the place… it happens, just keep the important things up front and you are set..HUGS!! Mel
Ugh to the beer headache. Hope you feel better, and that you can keep those balls in the air!

Hey, let me know if you got my message about site assistants. I hope you're interested; you'd be perfect!
Apparently you were more embarrased by the beer than the effects of the alcohol since you failed to mention the beer in question. I am sad.
