another reason I love my job

Jan 2nd, 2008 by toryssa

One of my co-workers brought me a big ol’ bottle of tequila back from Mexico. Another one brought me baklava. Really, do we need any more of an explanation that that?

I must say, that after two weeks off, I wasn’t looking forward to coming back this morning. I didn’t fancy the idea of getting out of my pajamas before 10. At all. I wasn’t quite hip on the idea that the option of not showering every day was being taken away. I like to keep that sort of option open, y’know?

But now that I’m here, boozy gift at my side, all is warm and fuzzy in my immediate world. Not even the tag in my underwear that feels like there is a SPIDER ON MY ASS is dampening my mood.

AND - I get off in twenty minutes. That’s just icing, baby, icing.

    Booze definitely has a way of setting things right :-)

    In response to your email, when I get to Vegas, the first thing I do is sit at the bar and order a Corona, a shot of tequila and a roll of quarters. No salt. No lime. Rinse, lather and repeat.

    Otherwise, it’s just in a margarita on the rocks. ;) How about yourself?

    See why I worship Smizzo?? I will meet y’all at the bar for a shot and Corona.

    That’s one hell of a great working environment!

    Smiz - Shots is my preferred method, then a margarita (am a sucker for a salter rim), never blended. Also, I’ve had it with lemonade which was surprisingly delicious. I think maybe tequila is just one of those things that is hard to screw up.

    I went to a wedding last summer. Well, I’m told I went to a wedding last summer. The details are sketchy. Double shots of tequila, all night long. Me, dancing like an idiot while th dj spun 80’s music. My husband didn’t speak to me for 2 days afterwards. I don’t recommend it, especially if you’re wearing a new pair of heels.

    CANNOT DO TEQUILA! Bad alcohol poisoning incident back in ‘93 - that’s all I am saying. I really need to blog about that!

    I drink rum - because rum rhymes with YUM!

    Did someone say TEQUILA??? Have I mentioned just how much I loves me some tequila? The way to my heart is through a bottle of Patron. And diamonds. And Pop-Tarts.

    Now I have a craving for tequila, and it is only 10:46 am! Damn.
