Some days you make me see the advantages of having drunk oneself into insensibility.

[winewomenand]

There are disadvantages?

You need to start waking up later. I'm tired of coming in to sleep just after you've left for a walk or whatever it is you do. It makes me feel almost slightly guilty about eating whatever's left of your breakfast.

You know, there used to be a time when sensible people still thought of running as something you did to save your life. Not something you did for your blood pressure.

[cal_sitter]

You have a functioning intellect. You can catalog the disadvantages on your own time.

Was that you? I'd thought Cal's mold colony escaped the refrigerator again. Since when do you consider yogurt and granola a fit meal?

Running to maintain your blood pressure does save your life when you're a lowly human being with a human cardiovascular system.

[winewomenand]

Disadvantages perhaps to someone who hasn't lived to the point of being able to defend himself even if he can't stand up straight.

Yogurt and granola was practically a piece of wedding cake. I spent all day eating fish and plain rice. And not even salt-fish. It was easier living in stupid Persia. If I wanted pickles I would demand an antipasto platter and if I wanted rice I would eat it as sushi and off of a naked woman's belly.

Lucky for me that my cardiovascular system laughs in the face of triglycerides.

I thought yesterday was nice... I liked the little sticky cookies, or whatever they were.

[winewomenand]

It was nice in a horrifically dull way. People who like Tokugawa and natural living loved it, no doubt.

I would have preferred the Renaissance.

[had_not_lived]

Any particular reason?

[winewomenand]

It wasn't the kind of novelty I'm fond of. I prefer to deal in hedonism as opposed to asceticism.

[playstheblues]

I never thought I'd panic so much about the transformation of 60 bottles of Johnny Walker into sake.

[winewomenand]

Having troubles, Blue? Hopefully your stock is back to normal today? I could always come test it.

[playstheblues]

I'm pretty sure everything's back to normal. But I'll comp you a beer if you'll drink with me.

[winewomenand]

Really? Not that I would refuse the offer, but is there a particular motivation behind it?

[captainshort]

Figures.

[winewomenand]

What figures? I am completely innocent.

[captainshort]

Funnily enough, I doubt you are. Or ever have been.

[blackeyedskank]

I could tie you up.

[winewomenand]

Or you could not and say you did, Ruby. Lovely girl or...whatever...that you are.

[blackeyedskank]

Your purpose in life isn't to spoil my fun, you know.

[winewomenand]

Correct. My purpose in life is to live and live as comfortably as possible. Unless you plan to screw me and feed me after tying me up, you don't factor into that.
