How to look like an alcoholic in a few easy steps

[narcasse]

- Head to your usual wholesale stockist with its wide range of alcohol and small selection of various cardamom-flavoured teas and coffees.
- Once there deliberate long and hard over whether or not you need an entire case of Stoli, complete with one arm draped loosely across your stomach while you rest the elbow of the other hand on said arm, so that you can tap your finger against your lips while you think.
- Having decided against more Stoli, make your way along the appropriate shelves and let out a delighted gasp, as if you’ve suddenly found God, when you come across the Kirsch. Proceed to select a bottle and clutch it delightedly.
- Having picked up your Kirsch move down to the next set of shelves and squeal “Oooh, Jägermeister!” before agonising over whether or not you need that more than you need the Kirsch.
- Deciding to leave the Jägermeister for next time, still hanging on to your bottle of Kirsch, when you find that they also have two types of Amaretto, rest one hand lightly against your chest while you shift your weight so that you’re leaning to one side as you debate the pros and cons of one brand verses the other.
- Having decided on the more familiar brand grab that and then carrying both bottles somewhat ineptly; scurry off to pay for them.
- Add in sneering at lesser brands of vodka and that blasphemy Lambrini along the way if you so desire.
- And for your pièce de résistance, when you reach your destination post-shopping trip; stagger from the car clutching your two bottles and a box of granola bars.

Sadly the Amaretto is for a friend so I won’t get to touch it till I actually go present them with the bottle.


And a new demotivational poster which just about sets the tone of things of late.
This track also reminds me of Metropolis, in particular that scene where Freder falls to his knees in front of the machine that eats workers, for some reason.

That sounds like a good thing to use my sister's cell phone camera for. ...I keep picturing this certain fellow standing there going through all of that..it fits him so well.
And I do love the new poster..I need a copy of it in my notebook.

Seeing as I’m almost in the mood to write more AU university fic, possibly as a belated birthday present for herit; I might end up putting at least some of my trip to the wholesalers to good fictional use...

Now that's a really good idea. ...oh, I'm so terrible, I didn't even realize it was her birthday. ._.

It was on Thursday 13th which isn’t a Shoggoth Day this year but may be during another.
I just need to pull all the bits together and work out just what sort of a researcher ‘Sue’ is and then I can get something written.

I really need to write stuff like that down...missed another friend's birthday too. Take your time..things are better with age sometimes.

Depending on how you have your ‘home’ LJ page set up it should show everybody’s birthday on the right hand side.
I may just sit on what I’ve written for a few days and then come back and take a look at it, along with the reinc fic I somehow seem to have written.

I can see the upcoming birthdays...I just forget to look at them. I'd do that..but I wouldn't dwell on it too much or you might have the urge to change some things that don't need to be changed.

And I do like your icon today.

[reichsfreiherr.livejournal.com]

I’ll probably see what I can make of it today… perhaps.

And I’m somewhat working on revamping some of my icons at the moment because it’s a fairly brainless task and I’m not entirely sure I have my head on the right way just yet.

Always throw in that perhaps..saves room for error.

...I'm still on that stint myself. Especially these last two days.

Now this doesn't fit here at all and I should probably make a real... "hey, I'm back yet AGAIN" announcement somewhere later, but for now: Missed me? ♥ I know I missed you at least.

My days have been alarmingly heritless since you’ve been gone. It got to the point where I was advocating the conquest of eastern Europe under the kingdom of Walachia only the other week as a way to pass the time.
