At what point in life does one transition from coming home and having a beer to unwind to having some scotch/bourbon to unwind? I feel like I'm inching closer, but not quite there.
I was contemplating this all day. No shtick. My reasoning is this, "I like this drinking at night thing. Keeps me even keeled. But if I keep sloshing through 7-10 beers a night all that work at the gym will be for naught. Might be time to switch to bourbon or scotch. Cheaper too. Makes more room in the fridge. No sure how I'll sell this to the wife though..."
how much of your soul does your wife have left to suck out of you? this is critical information.
Easy, killer. I do what I want for the most part. I even just dropped the bourbon idea on her casually and she laughed and smiled. "I want a burrito to eat during the game. I'm craving a big fat steak burrito. With some bourbon."
She smiled, laughed, and tried to understand how a steak burrito would taste with whiskey.
Update: she just left. I wish I could say she's getting me the bourbon, but it was a tough sell. I tried hard. My only chance is that she's going to the library and the liquor store is directly across the street. She acted like she wasn't going to get it, but she sometimes does that just to surprise me.
:fingers crossed:
