Alcohol can be tasty

[timepiececlock]

I bought a small bottle of Frangelico so that I can practice making a chocolate cake shot, aka the tastiest shot ever according to yours truly.

*youtube videos aren't playing on my computer at the moment so I can't actually watch this but going by the comments they're correct.
** the "nuts and berries" shot is pretty good too.

Everyone in the room will be over 21... I don't if I should be happy or scared... lol

We can have fun without being scary!

I used to have really strong opinions about buying alcohol for younger people, but that pretty much evaporated last year. Turns out my moral fortitude is not terribly high in that regard, under the right circumstances. Especially since I'm always the person who's trying to be responsible and aware and keep track of time, etc, so I would mistakenly think "It's okay, I'll watch over them!" Luckily I was surrounded by good people in a team-based setting (and in the middle of New Orleans, which is a city of indulgence like none I've ever seen--indulgence of every food, drink, song, idea, sex, or dance), so it our supervisors, who were mostly the same age, took the "we don't want to know, so don't tell us, and don't be stupid about it," approach.

Since then, I've never even been in a situation where I was asked to consider buying alcohol for someone who couldn't. All of my friends are over-age.

Since I'm not an US citizen, I can't have the luxury of being arrested over anything, so I'm glad that everyone is off age!

This time at Comic Con is going to be very fun XD The sad part if that after being at the Con the whole day, I'll probably be dead tired.

That *would* be bad! No cops for Irrel.

I've never been really close to getting arrested but there was this one funny moment I had on Bourbon Street in N.O. with a club bouncer. THere was a 20-year-old fellow AmeriCorps guy standing next to me with a beer (though NOT one I had purchased) outside a bar/club, and we were waiting for our friend to come out, and the bouncer recognized me from having been by about ten minutes before to ask if they were 18+ or 21+ because we had a younger friend. The bouncer asked me something like "You were by here a few minutes ago, and you said someone in your party was under 21, are they here?"

And I (being well past the driving limit but not TOO drunk) looked at him with a blank face and tried my best lying attempt. Which I don't get practice for, well, almost ever. I said "No, he left with some others to find a different place for 18 and over." I had to will myself not to look to my friending right next to me and in my head I was shouting mentally at him to "SAY NOTHING SAY NOTHING BE COOL SAY NOTHING!" Apparently my friend looked old enough (he did have facial hair) because the bouncer left us alone. I felt very rebellious about it at the time, and ridiculously proud of myself...probably because I was tipsy.
