no, i bought it. it's okay when you want something super light. you never even tried it! you don't know!
on the left is saint james.
i had completely forgotten about the barbancourt. there's another almost empty bottle of goslings back there, and that fucking sailor jerry's. and the poor little wee bottle of malibu still: the neglected little sister of the rum cupboard.
and jim beam? wtf?

i bought a tough bottle of rum last night, can't even remember the name, left it at the party. but! i got good and drunk until the soda ran out and I introduced this girl Mikaela to the pleasure of rum rickeys and she got sauced. the headache today is worth it.

this evening i was surprised to find that there was still a good amount of old mill left in the cupboard. why did this not get drunk at our party? did we put it away?
regardless, i was happy to find it, and was / am / will continue to be happy to consume some of it.

from kira:
hahaha funny story.
so brian got a job at this new restaurant in town and for some reason, they had to train him to serve alcohol even though he is too young. so i guess he was talking to his coworkers and the bartender about drinks and they were talking about drinks with rum and brian said something about a rum ricky. but i guess no one had any idea what he was talking about and the bartender said he had never heard of that drink before... haha so brian felt really stupid i guess, so he asked me about it and i told him that, yes indeed, it is a real drink. but i thought that was really funny and weird....
