A Round Of Shots

 

Cocaine Princess here.

I love my sister, truly I do. Like all siblings throughout history we argue and have disagreements. But this past week I reached a new level of anger with her that if scientists were to measure that anger it would be off the frigging charts. I'll be blogging about that next week.

It's that time of year again where attending Christmas parties are in full force. The invitations arrived mid November and since I couldn't attend them all I had to sort through which parties I wanted to attend and which ones I couldn't since a few of them fell on the same date. For me, one of the best things about going to a party is shopping for a new outfit and accessories because as you know one cannot be seen in the same party outfit, right?
 

All of the parties have fell either on a Friday or on the weekend all except for one that is. One of the holiday gatherings occurred this past Wednesday. When I woke up yesterday morning the first two words I muttered were Holy Headache. Aside from the occasional margarita and Rum Runner (and that's during vacation) I don't like to drink. I’m usually that one person in a group that orders a Coke. On Hump Day I thought, what the hell, afterall tis the season to be merry. Among other things we also ordered a round of shots. The clear drinks on the side are Polar Bears which I liked......really liked!


All I can say is, it was a bad idea to drink during the middle of the week and my headache proved that.

By now I'm sure you've heard about the tragic death of actor Paul Walker. I was with friends when one of them broke the news the actor had been killed. We figured it was one of those twitter hoax deaths until she informed us the story was posted on a legitimate news website. I posted an entry related to the actor three weeks ago. Remember when I blogged about seeing the Fast and Furious II with my ex? Anyways, none of us knew the actor personally but hearing about his death saddened us.  One of my friends asked, “when he woke up did he know this would be his last day on earth?” It was a rhetorical question but the obvious answer is no. Just goes to show how short and fragile life is.

I read a quote once by Richard Bach, "Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't."

Hmm, makes you think doesn’t it?

My loyal and dear readers, it’s finally Friday........The 13th!

Whatever your plans are have a marvelous weekend and beware of anyone in a hockey mask.~x

XOXOXOXO,
Cocaine Princess

I'm so sorry, by accident I hit "Delete" instead of "Publish" Thankfully I still hadn't deleted your comment from my email so I've copied and pasted them onto here.

I'm glad you're not a fan of hard liquor, Miss Princess. It's better to experience life with a clear head. Has anyone written a good blog post when they were intoxicated?

I must be really old and totally out of touch. I had and still have no clue who Paul Walker was. I suppose I should stop watching so much introspective foreign cinema and start watching more exploding car chase films.

Death--sometimes very hard to deal with.

Today, I received a message that my adopted mom has three to six months to live.

A few weeks ago, we received news that one of our detectives had six to nine months to live.

Last night, a "friendship" died officially.

I got maybe two hours of sleep last night thinking of one of my male friends.

The death of the actor made me think too about death.

Life is short. I don't think we truly realize how short until we lose ones that we love.

There's a new man in my life. I'm taking it SLOW. He certainly brightens my day and I get to see him practically everyday. He is a puppy lover too. God just dropped him right into my lap after many years apart. Boom there he was back in my life.

Siblings that can drive u crazy but we still love them don't we.

Christmas parties--hooray a reason to dress up, eat, drink and be merry.

I will be on vacation for two weeks. Which means I'm taking a vacation from the blogging world too.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hope u get to go to those sunny spots with ur bff.

Good morning, Princess...

Most of us, I assume, will have no idea when "our day" arrives. More than likely, we will get up... start our day like normal, go about it... until something happens.

I figure that's just part of the plan.

I hope that you and your sister resolve your issues. I've seen how you write about her... I know you love her.

I hope you are having a wonderful Christmas season....

Warmest wishes, G

Good Evening Red Shoes,
The issue between sister and I is nothing serious. When I blog about it next week, you'll understand why I was so angry. Yes, I do love her....very much. I know there's been heartache with you, it's always tough especially when it's around the holidays. Hope you're doing better.

Hey Graham,
Hey, long time no hear! How are you?
