Friday, June 2nd, 2017: the day there was NO BOOZE in the house.

 

On Friday, I had a little bit of work to finish up from home, so I spent the rest of the day doing errands. Send invoices, replace the SodaStream tank, and BUY BOOZE.

 

I walked over to my favorite liquor store on Manhattan Ave. which was playing my favorite George Michael song BTW and bought:

 

a bottle of vodka

a bottle of gin

and a bottle of Old Overholt whiskey (my BF’s fave)

 

So I came back home, put the vodka in the freezer (like you do?) and made myself a gin-lavender-lemonade to sip while completing some writing assignments and cutting up veggies for dinner prep.

 

Hours later, my boyfriend comes home after stopping to get a haircut after work, and he’s carrying a black bag with him. You know what a black bag means: LIQUOR STORE!!!

 

“What’d ya get?” I ask, snoopily.

“Why do you ask?” he deftly deflects my snoop, and he pulls out of the bag:

 

a bottle of vodka

a bottle of gin

and a bottle of Old Overholt whiskey (his fave)

 

“Well,” I say, “It just so happens that went shopping today and bought:

 

a bottle of vodka

a bottle of gin

and a bottle of Old Overholt whiskey! Your fave!

 

I guess it goes to show you,” I sing-songed, winding up for an epic pun, “that Great Minds Drink Alike.

 

The End.
