30 Days of Truth: my not-so-secret love for booze!!

20. Your views on drugs and alcohol

Tequila good.  Rum better.  Drugs bad.

I think that about sums it, right??  No??  Fine, I'll elaborate a little.

St. Patrick's Day, 2012.  Made by Kasia.

So I started drinking when I was legal at 19...  hahahaha, you didn't really believe that, did you?? It's almost as if you don't know me or something!!

So the first time I was drunk I was 14.  Someone had gotten a lot of beers, and I drank many of them.  They were gross, but it was the thing to do, you know??  And it was a good time.

I didn't actively start drinking again until I was about 17.  That was when it became a common thing at parties.  Kasia's parties were awesome!!  And usually they involved lots of drinking.

Back then I was the queen of coolers.  I loved Smirnoff Twisted in watermelon and green apple.  And I loved Woody's Blueberry.  But sadly, coolers started giving migraines.  I don't know why.  They're instant -- as in, I take a drink and less than five minutes later, I'm in pain.  And if I drink coolers all night anyways (or even just like 3 or so), I'll throw up the next day as if I've drank my weight in vodka.  Also, vodka is the tool of the devil (no, seriously, it is!!).

And that was when I discovered the greatness that is Captain Morgan.  White rum, spiced rum, and (the best one!!) silver spiced rum.  I love me some Captain. It is my go-to for all parties.

Lobsteritas from Red Lobster are super yummy!!

A few years ago I also discovered tequila.  At first, I thought it was gross.  But then I stopped being a moron and decided it was awesome!!  Sadly, I can't drink gold tequila (instant migraines!!), so I drink silver.  I have also learned that salt does NOT help.  In fact, it makes it worse.  So now I just do the shot and have a lemon (the green one.  Yes, I know.  Leave it alone.).

Patrón is now my drink of choice.  It's not for everyday, 'cause $90 a bottle is crazy, but it's so good. Rum and coke is my usual drink, although I do enjoy amaretto sours, mojitos, and slushie margaritas. 

Jello shots are awesome too.  They're super fun!!  And you can drink sooooo many of them!!

But drugs are bad.  No drugs for me.  If you do weed, I don't care (as long as I can't smell it, it gives me migraines).  But anything harder than that and you're not welcome at my party.  Just say no.

Now I'm really looking forward to camping!!  So much rum to drink....

My secret love of fake orangey goodness!!

I'm not sure how many of you know, but secretly, I'm a Sunny D junkie. I love Sunny D.  I could drink it forever.  If I'm ever asked to get orange juice, that's what I'll get.  So as a warning, don't ask me to get orange juice unless you want Sunny D.  Or be specific about which one you want.  And I always make sure to bring one or two bottles camping. It's so not good for you and so yummy tasting.  It's so fake....and so good!! I love it.

So yesterday, while on a super quick Walmart run, I came across this aisle, and took a picture.  It was like someone at Walmart actually went out of their way to make me happy.  So I had to share it.

I'm not sure why someone decided that an entire aisle needed to be sunny D (it was half the regular yellow one, and half of the orange tangy one, which is why further down the colour changes), but they're freaking awesome!!

Of course I bought some.  I had to.  It called to me.  Also, it was only $2 for the big bottle!!!  If I'd taken more cash with me, I would so have bought more than one.  It's not like they go bad or anything.  Seriously, they're fake juice.  That shit must last forever!!  I should put some aside in case the zombies come or the Mayans are right.  Ooooh, I'll make an underground bunker and fill it with Sunny D.  Except...well...that would be a lot of work.  Maybe I'll just fill my closet and hope my building doesn't blow up due to zombies/apocalypse.

But yes, sooooo tasty.  I'm looking forward to breakfast, and the nice big glass of fake orange juice I'm gonna have with it.  I don't even know what I'm gonna have for breakfast, but I know it'll include Sunny D.

'Cause there's just no better way to start the day than with fake, way-too-yellow, orange juice.  Unless I was on a beach.  Oooh, at the beach, drinking some Sunny D.  With rum in it!!  That'd definitely be a better way to start the day :)
