Still nowhere to live. 15 days until Homelessness. We look at 2 1 places tonight -- maybe we'll get lucky? (Just got a call that one of the places has just been rented. Fuckers.)

Also, am formally swearing off tequila for the remainder of my life. I don't know what it is about that stuff, but I was wrecked from Tuesday night's outing (going away party for a colleague). Nothing says "Teh Sux" like dry heaves on the subway.

Tequila Avoidance Therapy
(aka Classic Margarita)

2 oz silver tequila
1 1/3 oz cointreau
2/3 oz fresh squeezed lime juice

Shake over ice. Strain into glass. Walk into bathroom and pour the margarita into the toilet. (this cuts out the middle-man, you, from having to gestate the margarita for a few hours -- embarrassing yourself in the process -- before relinquishing the drink to its fate in the sewers of your home town). Flush. Twice. Curl up asleep on the cool, cool tiles until morning.

One does not "drink tequila". One "gets mugged in Mexico".

We're gonna have fun with that bar in LA. That's all I'm saying.

Man M, I've been totally missing in action. I need to get back and read some entries. 15 days? Wow. Hang in there kid, if anyone can make it happen, you can.

Tequila, Lemon Lime and Bitters is my drink of choice - handed to me by an ex. I get looks of either worried looks of "are you insane?" or impressed looks of "this girl is hardcore" from bartenders when I order it - even more so when I specifically ask for it to be made with Soda Water rather than the lemonade that seems to occasionally find it's way into the glass.

Vestrit, Barry, and Kama looked at me funny when I downed two shots in a row, neat, no chaser. I loves me some Tequila. It tastes like burning.

"Nothing says "Teh Sux" like dry heaves on the subway."

See, from a distance that would be a funny story if I hadn’t been there so many times myself on the London Underground.

Good luck on the flat hunting and on the sickness receding.

I like your TAT. It reminds me of a similar strategy I have when it comes to motor vehicles.

Step one: go to dealerships, check out cars.
Step two: go home. Decide not to buy a car.
Step three: dig hole in backyard instead.
Step four: once a week or on some regular basis, go to backyard and throw money into hole.

This saves everybody a lot of time and is better for the environment.

Given the fact that I really didn't drink that much on that particular evening, I was surprisingly relieved when you guys called off the meeting the following evening. No dry heaves for me, but considering how little I actually drank that night (a margarita, a few beers, and said tequila) I did feel like shit hat day. It could just be that I was getting old, but I drank far more on Saturday and was quite OK on Sunday. So I blame that person coming up with that splendid idea of finishing the evening with a tequila shot.

BTW, beside the tequila, thanks for the hospitality you and Doug showed me during my stay in NYC.

Good look on the apartment hunting!
