Had absinthe for the first time tonight...

Jan 22, 2009 22:55

I've been stuck in my home nearly every night barring work or family with minimal exceptions since I don't know when, so tonight I splurged and went to a local cafe for a drink.  Live music, and for once neither too loud nor unpleasant.  Stayed to listen to the whole set.  They had real absinthe on tap there, and because I've always been curious, I splurged and tried it.

Tastes like licorice.  I fail to see what the big deal is.  No hallucinations as of yet...THAT I KNOW OF.

There was a very beautiful young woman sitting next to me.  I considered striking up a conversation, but then the guy sitting on the OTHER side of her randomly, as he was leaving, paid for her drinks and meal.  And there was no damn way I could top that for an icebreaker.  Ah well...
