It's been a while since I posted, so I feel obligated to check in. I'm not doing anything special on this particular night, and so I have no excuse. Truth is, I do: there's stuff I meant to do tonight. But I'm not going to do it, and I've moved on. I'm doing this instead. But what to write about? The motivation has escaped me.
My eyes drift to the left and watch the hockey game. Florida has tied it up. Hooray.
I drift back and contemplate writing about politics. Kerry. Why Kerry? How was he underestimated for so long? But my heart's not in it, and away it goes.
Away again, I stare to my right this time, and follow the odd orbit of the second hand on my counter-clockwise clock. Tock, tick, tock, tick.
And back. I've tried two new brands of high-quality gin this week. Hollingsworth has a cucumber infusion, and claims to be the gin of "1 in 1000 gin drinkers." Truthfully, I'd guess it's an inflated claim. The other brand, Magellan's, is much better, easily one of the best gins I've had. It's also infused, but it made the safe choices of petals & irish root instead. But I don't feel like writing about that either.
And there's a pretty damn funny new Heineken commercial out, but there's no link from their site, and I don't really feel like going into detail about it.
Poker is best played with Playboy playing cards. And a clean desk gets messy much faster than a messy desk gets messier.
So no post today, guys. Sorry.

you sound glum.
Heineken: Yes. Funny shit. Thanks for understanding, Heineken. A better beer would be more help.
Glum: Nope! :) Thanks though.

Everybody has "one of those nights" sometimes, at least you still posted.

He's a hockey player right?
Ah, you like the hockey pun, yes? Hahaha!
Posted by: Chris at January 29, 2004 06:18 PMWhy don't you bring some of this gin over here for evaluation?
