@Tidgy's Dad What's your status on The Girl in the Spider's Web?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

It's called "alcohol poisoning" or at least "overdose". This will pass. It's funny how we tend to never remember this feeling the next time we are in party situation

Ow.

@Tidgy's Dad What's your status on The Girl in the Spider's Web?

I've got like 40 pages left. Not sure how I feel about the book.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Ok! Later my Friend! I'll get my booty busy working too. But it's been so deliciously nice to be lazy and on TFO!

Couldn't sleep.
Still feel terrible.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Little hair o' the dog never hurt. At the time, anyhow.

I think it might tomorrow morning when I'm supposed to be teaching accountancy.
Ow.

Pip seems to have disappeared and I haven't seen her for quite a while. Think she's sleeping in her little house.
Squeak keeps coming in and out of her little house.

Welcome to The Cold Dark Room, Pip and Squeak.
You are most welcome.

I've bought the husband and wife books as a part of a wedding present for my nephew and his fiancé who are getting married in May.

We got those two, plus 'The Hangover' and 'Mindfulness'.
Excellent, must get the other four soon.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Well it is his fault then because you had to drink his share too - very inconsiderate of him!

Wifey managed his share, I think.
She's not much better than I am, today.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

If you lived near me, I'd totally take you with me! And to rattlesnake dens in the spring, too!

That would be super!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You never know, one day................................

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I never used to get hangovers unless I mixed drinks but now they hit me like a ton of bricks even of I don't so while I do like the odd tipple I never let myself get to a stage where I know I will suffer. Awful feeling!

Ow!
yes.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I was on a gin and tonic diet once
- I lost 2 days!

Only two ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Now, Adam, if you can keep the amount of the gin at just the right level that should fix you up today and not have longterm effects dragging into tomorrow

Problem being, i've now had a beer, some Black and White and some Jack Daniels.
Feel better but not holding out much hope for tomorrow.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I like Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila and EverClear....

Welcome to The Cold Dark Room, Maggie.
Pull up an armadillo to sit on, grab a coffee or something stronger and watch out for the hedgehogs and occasional flying jellyfish.
I will have to order in your drinks of choice for you.
ow.
And have three points to begin.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I'd be an "ultimate cheap date" then! Don't even like soft drinks, usually just drink water and add lemon or lime wedge with my meal when eating out

What you doing on Thursday ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I think Maggie is made of stronger stuff than me!!
Everclear® alcohol
Everclear is a pure grain alcohol. The brand, produced by David Sherman Corporation, comes in two strength bands, both 95% (190 proof), and 75.5% (151 proof) bottles. Although, the 95% is undeniably the most popular and most available type.

Many of the US provinces have made it illegal to buy Everclear and it's very uncommon to see the most potent of the Everclear products sold outside of America.

And it's for good reason too. Everclear is incredibly potent and should be used strictly and responsibly. Don't drink it straight!

yes, please!!!!!
I'm sure that would help me.
Medicinal and all that.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Time for bed now!
Hope you are feeling better tomorrow, Adam
Night night Ewa and anyone else popping in
See you soon.

Night, Lyn.
Worse is more likely.
Silly me.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

@Tidgy's Dad What's your status on The Girl in the Spider's Web?

Not managed to find an English copy in Spain or here in Morocco, yet, so may have to order it from Amazon.
Got 20 or so books for Christmas, so plenty to read!

Problem being, i've now had a beer, some Black and White and some Jack Daniels.
Feel better but not holding out much hope for tomorrow.

You need a greasy hamburger!!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

You need a greasy hamburger!!

Sausages and pasta!!!!!
That should help!

For the folks who wanted to go elk-watching with me.


I should clarify that this is not a totally natural situation. The elk are wild, and come and go as they please, but in this area they are heavily overpopulated, which generates a lot of complaints about them getting into hay barns and fields and such, and a lot of demands for the herds to be culled by special hunts. To keep the peace, the wildlife department maintains several areas where they truck in hay during the part of the year when heavy snow makes grazing difficult in the high country. In this particular canyon, the hay is scattered in long swaths so the elk can "graze" more or less naturally on it. The project has been going on for years, and the elk know which canyons the hay will be in, so when the snow gets deep, they head for those canyons. The one road into the canyon is blocked off at the end during the winter to keep people from taking advantage of the feeding program to poach elk, but you can get in to a point where you can watch elk come and go, and hear them talking to each other.
