So last night the friend that moved called and told me he was meeting some other folks for dinner at a bar/restaurant near by. Long been a regular there even now that I do not spend $40-$50 a night like I used to. The bartender and waiters know I do not drink.
So Derek hands me my usual club soda and lime with a splash of cranberry and I carry it to the table. I take a sip and there is a LOT of vodka in it! I guess it is a sign of a good recovery that I spit it out in the glass and immediately thought "that cr... is AWFUL!"
Derek was so apologetic and I told him I now had to give my 18 month chip back! He had 3 drinks that looked alike and in the rush I got the wrong one.
How did I ever think that nasty venom was good?
