Today is fun day at work. Food, bowling, boss's lakehouse, and a big steaming lay-off notice. Never before has my post subject so accurately defined this paragraph's subject.

Also had more to drink than I ever have in a 2 day span (which still isn't saying much, only 3 drinks in 2 days), finding out that my liquor of choice evidently is tequila.
