Okay, I am firing the entire internet, because it took a WHOLE YEAR for me to find out about this. A year! Thirteen months I could have had that in my life!

After about five years of always ordering whiskey and coke when I go out and always drinking it at parties, it suddenly occurred to me: I can make it at home. It's not complicated! You just pour! It's exactly as easy as filling orange soda with vodka, which was my previous drinking-at-home choice of beverage. And I can use lovely fancy colas, made with cane sugar and extracts of substances I understand (well, mostly; I'm not completely clear on what "speedwell" is).

Plus I got to make a field trip to the giant liquor store--not the really, really giant liquor store, which is downtown, but a very large outpost. So that was good times. Did everyone else already know that whiskey and bourbon is insanely expensive? I mean, if you want the stuff that comes in glass bottles and doesn't make the cashier look at you like she knows full well you're not in college anymore and you should be ashamed. At least I never drink it straight, so I could immediately dismiss the really classy small-batch stuff. Mixing that with soda would be a waste of fifty dollars. (FIFTY DOLLARS. Daaaaang.)

It is that rare occasion where I made a semi-substantive (or longer than two paragraphs, anyway) post about fandom stuff on Tumblr! Which means I will link it here. Man, I really wish Tumblr could auto-crosspost; you guys aren't missing much besides other people's pictures, other people's fanart, and cute animals, but I feel so split in two sometimes.
