When I get melancholy for lingbert, I imagine him among his beloved trees, happy, and not at all like a Michael Palin-esque lumberjack.

aw

i don’t really remember the margarita proportions but this tastes reasonable and at least i will most definitely be scurvy-protected while i just stay here and drink.

<3

i made a lxy drink

i did so much cleaning today

and then i had some old overholt

xoxox

i went out for a few whiskies, now maybe a margarita for a nightcap

bounty, prince

(that felt rather silaviveris.t)

(and that felt rather estelist)

i went out for a few martinis, now maybe a margarita for a nightcap

dangerous pattern emerging

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Almost four weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

one is the loneliest tumbler that you’ll ever do

everyone should have a melancholic streak.

i wish i could just stay here and drink

i got 6 bottles of wine

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two weeks pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

soooooo drunk. i don’t really drink anymore, so one entire bottle of frangelico + several glasses of wine later, i feel cross-eyeed and regretful already

an entire bottle of frangelico?? and wine???

i’m stunned you could even type!

surprisingly, i feel pretty okay this morning! as you can imagine, that much drinking also required a serious amount of smoking, so my mouth feels like an ashtray—the last time i smoked that many cigs was with YOU!!

how do you drink frangelico? I thought it was to mix in coffee!

Out til 2 last night with coworkers = most drinks I’ve had In one night in a long time (4!) and wooh today is rough. Fortunate to have some down time before work thins but i feel guilty like I should be working out or hiking when all i want is to nap in anticipation of a very busy next 3 days.

i drink it straight, over ice with lots and lots of fresh lime juice

i got a bottle of rum and a bunch of mint and some seltzer water and some limes

we just got a bottle of rum and seltzer and limes too! and some ginger beer.

we’re making dark & stormies with my niece. i am lying on “the moon bed” on her third floor deck, with a breeze and a view of boston. it is wonderful.

oh yeah i also got ginger beer!

i got ginger beer (fancy stuff) yesterday—thank god i saved it for today, my stomach needed it.

i am never getting drunk again.

angie from carroll gardens, brooklyn thinks one should drink frangelico straight, so smoove otm (until the very last part)

oh ruby ;_;

nah not straight-straight—you gotta have the lime to cut the sickly sweetness.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Six months pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

tonight I made a lxy drink and s said tell me how to make that and I did. then he said what do you call this? And I said why, it’s a lxy drink! He was a little confused.

<3s

tehersa, please bring your beau next time you come here.

I made a bourbon version and yeah a rickey has sugar and honestly I just don’t feel right calling it a Rickey bc it is a lxy drink!!!

rum lxy

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Two years pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Friday night, having a lxy drink!

the lxy drink outlasted my relationship!

<3

i’m glad you all stayed

and drank

<3

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

what a day, jfc

not work or home troubles, but stupid volunteer organization drama

L went to see the grandbaby

I think I’ll fire up some Rudimentary Peni or similar screaming insanity

heat up some leftover chicken with garden herbs

drink

play Maelstrom

Toasting u

the drama climate has improved significantly thanks to savvy co-volunteers posting smart thoughtful emails

went to the local pub early to avoid terrible cover-rock Weekend Warrior band, but they started at 8 :(

left after 1 beer (Hop Valley Proxima)

I have only listened to one side of a Robert Wyatt LP, a far cry from Rudi Peni

pouring Jim Beam, let’s find a noisy record to rip onto the rest of this CDRW

I saw these guys play once in the 90’s to an audience of four, two of which were the other acts. it was a matinee show, god knows why. they abused a whole table full of broken toys, great stuff. I bought my copy of this LP from them at that show. This is probably the first time I’ve listened to it in at least ten years. It sings, aches and warbles with a bruised mechanical beauty.

one of my very favorite bands. the Mute label totally fucked up the CD reissues of these albums, every single one has brickwalled compression that exceeds any reasonable parameter. this is the last vinyl of theirs that I need to rip, their 1986 swan song. I love dissolution/breakup albums—Shoot Out The Lights, Recurring, Loaded, Ach Dieser Bart, etc. 2nd vocalist Guggi left before this was recorded, but there are live bootlegs that have the multi-vocal delivery so essential to this group. still a great album.

drink #2: Jim Beam, angostura bitters, ginger ale

drink #3: Jim Beam, Cynar, ginger ale

I’m liking this #3 combo

no surprise that I suck at Maelstrom when drunk

this is a major commitment that will require most of the weekend, bear with me

I will probably only make it through the first side tonight

these are the days my friend

it could be frank it could be very fresh and clean

I wish we lived closer b/c it would be the best to sit somewhere on a long summer evening with all the sandboxers drinking and talking and listening until eventually we’re all just smiling happily.

^^^^

so otm.

oh hai

this 4th LP has a slight dishwarp in it, but seems to play just fine

1 1/2 more sides to go

I went and ate excellent Japanese pub food, bumped into a dear old friend who I have known for almost 25 years now, we sat and talked and drank and ate for two hours. also ran into three guy friend on a guys night out, each with their own toddler in tow.

re-reading Octavia Butler’s Seed To Harvest series, letting the Philip Glass wash over me

drinks:

bourbon & ginger

Ninkasi Dawn Of The Red

Jameson’s, neat

currently: Deschutes Twilight Ale

hai i am listening to ‘seamonsters’

i had a date last night it was okay but

i remain pleased that i once recognized philip glass on the streets of the east village

i’ve had two bottles of champagne and a fair bit of rye and beer

yes i was that naive

you’ve heard this all before

repent or burn

^^ Blackhouse—Five Minutes After I Die LP

burning

hi.

Toasting all y’all with this cider

I wish we lived closer b/c it would be the best to sit somewhere on a long summer evening with all the sandboxers drinking and talking and listening until eventually we’re all just smiling happily.

most otm thing I’ve ever read on the internet

pretty much!

basically we should all move to seattle

or vancouver!

make it pdx and you got a deal

haha yes

seriously, living in a collective/commune with loads of friends has been such a wonderful dream all my life I would totally jump into that with the right gang

^^^^^ the older i get, the more i feel this

i’m in

(unless neko & basil try to eat lyle. less worried abt harry)

neko hardcase

we could get a parrot and if it started swearing volubly in an nz accent ruby and i could blame each other which all sounds well and good but what if it repeated our denials and recriminations in a loud emotionless shriek that drowned out vin scully when f. was listening to mlb.com, that would be a big bag of trouble.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A year passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

john d sang half this song the other night when we saw him play in the barn in iowa

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Almost four years pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

my dad, a chemist, used to order ‘martinis’ that were straight gin (with a twist!) and then apply a couple droplets of vermouth from a vial in his pocket

i thought that was pretty cool until i discovered that gin is fucking disgusting

can’t really understand the human toll of the UK’s industrial revolution until you account for the fact that all the sluggards and slatterns were pounding gin to escape it

at least grappa is sort of epic

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

happy holidays, sandbox

happy nothanksgiving

i drank a lot during zoomsgiving.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯Seven months pass⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

I didn’t know what to have and then I thought “lxy drink!”

thinking of you, sandboxers.
