Wry Ramblings From A Hot Wing

It's Saturday, and last night at work, I remembered I was out of beer. So, during the middle of the rush, I jumped online and ordered beer for delivery. 

It was a long day of reading Encrypted, the highs and the lows, and the talk about boner's Jeff included had built up a mighty thirst. I opened my favorite app, quickly searched for my favorite adult beverage, hit purchase, and whammo, it was on the way. 

By the time I arrived home, all I could think about was reading about more sex in Encrypted, and having an ice-cold beer whilst sitting on my balcony smoking my strawberry kiwi vape. 

But when I saw what had been delivered, I was immediately heartbroken. 

So I'm from a small town in Pennsylvania, I'm basically one step away from being a redneck, so I drink canned beer, Michelob Ultra, don't fucking judge me, it's basically to show everyone I'm not just drinking straight whiskey. 

So I buy a twenty-four pack of canned Michelob Ultra, and it arrived cold. But I was still heartbroken. 

As I said, I basically have a beer to prove I'm not an alcoholic by not just drinking straight whiskey. I knew they sold 12oz bottles, 12 oz cans, 23 oz cans, as well as non-alcoholic beer (which is pointless if you ask me) 

But i did not know they sold 7oz cans. Did you know? 

I did when I got home, 24 7oz beers. Basically two drinks and it's empty. So now, I'm outside, I have my whiskey, my strawberry Kiwi vape, my I-pad, and every five seconds I have to walk back inside to grab another beer. 

Made me want to stop drinking...beer. 

So last night, I proved everyone right/write, I was an alcoholic and drank whiskey straight. 

 

Oh you thought there was going to be sex in my stories? I’m a prude remember?

We have something like that in Portugal. Not in ounces because we don't use freedom units, but a similar volume. Their main purpose is for the summer, when people are hanging out in the backyard, usually with family. If they're casually drinking slowly when the weather is very hot, a regular sized beer risks getting warm before it's finished. But I don't speak from experience, I both don't like beer and I seem incapable of drinking anything slowly.

By the way, I just finished Encrypted, what a great thriller/mystery. Very well done. .

Thanks, your Michelob story was better than the one with the giant ants. 😂

Michelob isn't bad, sometimes I buy the 7oz cans because I don't drink really anymore so I'm a lightweight/cheap date.  They allow me to get just enough of a buzz before the stop switch in my brain trips.

That’s because you are so popular… other poor souls, like me, crave notifications, even if it’s an emoji I don’t understand.  😢

My newest comment on your story got sent for moderator approval and I thought I was in trouble. But then Google found a thread that made me think I was probably fine and that told me the reason was probably a word I copied from your own chapter. I was still worried, but then it got approved. And now I know what kinds of words to avoid.

You can't use the "t" word. .

The thing is I'd never use that word if it wasn't for my preference of keeping the word you used in the chapter. You tricked me! Unintentionally, but you did.

Or was it unintentionally?  👿

I believe you are the second person to fall into my trap in the same chapter.  😇

I got caught on the "t" word once.  A friend of mine had an email address once where the "a" word was censored ("a" as in three letter word for donkey).   Some institutions even censor the word "breast".  One ultraconservative group censored the word "gay" and replaced it with "homosexual".  So when reporting on a sporting event where the winner was a guy with the last name of Gay, you can guess what happened -- the result was that the website with that policy was made a laughingstock.

When I got married, we had the opportunity to change our name, and I wanted to changed our last name to Homosexual, but the husband said no. 

He never lets me have any fun.

Sometimes you just have to poke the FO to make sure she hasn't forgotten you. 

If I don't make it, you can have all my writings.
