Have you ever...?

Post by AntonArkydivich »

Had a single beer on your lunch break, wearing a company T-shirt, in a sports bar, and then walked over to say hello to a co-worker, only to find yourself looking for a job on a Tuesday afternoon?

God, I hate Southern California. Four more months.

And then bitched about it on an online message board, went and picked up your last check, walked down the street, and got hired on at a better job?

God looks after fools, drunks, and little children; I happen to be two of the three.

A drink to Ol' Saint Buk tonight.

Cheers to that, and no harshing on the SoCal. We aren't buried in snow. I'll drink to that.

It is also the idea that when you announce your fealty to the God Bacchus on such a message board,

such a thing may invite benevolence form powers higher than the likes of us. Who knows what plans our gods have for us? Perhaps it is to not get stuck in a cubicle, but, instead, to taste every dish offered on the banquet table, and every liquor.

Indeed, you appear to be an explorer. You and your Lady have traveled far and wide, and deep.

Simple equation here: You found that your newly former employment was not conducive to your joy of life, in enjoying your free time, an hour as it was for lunchtime. Booooo to the shallow of mind! Let them wallow in their tiny morsel of power. That may be all that they have for themselves, glued to the television for the kardassians afterwork.

Add that to your wanderlust, perhaps wunderlust, or be it wonderlust?

Cheers to your new gain.

The equation summarizes to this:

You welcome the closing of a door, to find an new one open. Your explorer spirit appears to be well received by our Lord Bacchus.


This thing about you will serve you well.


DRINK! EXPLORE!

Ah, so true. Some great boozer with a writing problem (I think Hemingway) once said, any man who hates where he is from is not worth listening to. You were too gentle with your chastising, and I too rash with my detracting.

And God bless ya, mista willies. Your words give wings to the soul.

So true. I always paraphrased that as "and I am two out of three. Ask my wife and she'll say I'm three for three."

Always wondered what Jesus`s tenth fault was, here we have it: he closed the door on Bacchus by proclaiming the "one and only".
Silly right?!
Drink!

At least we can draw images of our god with our urine, on the wall or the street. he would smile, not strap explosives on babies.

I mean, hey! let us honor Lord Bacchus now

I'm glad it's not just the guys in the stories.

Work is wonderful. Jobs are shitty.

Drinking is wonderful. Drunk ain't so bad.

Words to live by. Nothing better than earning a really good thirst, and then quenching it. Amen.
