Its really a summertime drink. But I thought Id try it while I had the orange juice.
Rum, apple brandy, orange juice, lime juice, and a teaspoon of sugar. Sublime.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
Finished my fiftieth and last hour of continuing education for the year. Im done. No more fucking studying for a while.

Is it winter there yet? It's trying to be here.

Which I am engaging in.
Castro Cooler is long gone. Decided to have a White Russian. With my drink in my hand, and chilling out in my bathrobe, I am The Dude Himself.

Its like a trial run for retirement.
I like it.
I admit, I miss visiting with my patients, and helping them figure out their diagnoses. But I had been so burned out for the last five years or so. The rest is doing me good.

(74 posts)good on you, mate...enjoy the libations (I must admit to having never developed much of a taste for mixed drinks...ice or water makes it a mixed drink for me)...sounds like you're testing the retirement waters; come on in, the water's fine!...glad to hear of the end of CEUs for the year (Ms. OSD was always happy to be done with them every year)...btw, where in the PNW? (just west of Portland here)...cheers, OSD

Checking in from metro Atlanta. Enjoying a few beers after picking up the college girl for Thanksgiving break. 44 degrees & windy.
Nothing in the world like relaxing with a few beers at the end of the day.
The only problem is: beer makes me sleepy.
Hard liquor makes me loopy.
