On turning old.

So I'm back in Reno, where I belong, celebrating my 21st birthday by shopping for bras and drinking instant coffee. I'm even wearing my lucky orange underwear today. I'm just that awesome, y'all

Happy birthday again- shopping is a perfectly acceptable way to spend a birthday... Not so sure about instant coffee. ;) :chugs fresh brewed dark roast and glares at the snow falling outside:

Child: I WANT.
Teen: I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT BUT I WANT.
Adult: I WANT BUT I AM ASHAMED FOR WANTING AND GOD, WHAT WILL THIS WANTING MEAN FOR EVERYONE ELSE AND DO I EVEN WANT WHAT I WANT.

=Human Psychology 101 Cliff Notes. Love it.

I want them to make vanilla chai gel deodorant again. This sounds AWESOME.

Have a lovely day! ;)

Dude, the instant Vida de Mocha at Costco is FABULOUS. I practically live off it when I'm home. And since I'm legal now...*pours in a Bailey's*

They used to make it, then they discontinued last year! Now there's just Va Va Vanilla, which is fine but not as great.

Anything (deep fried and/or) covered in chocolate is AWESOME

OH.

You didn't say it had chocolate in the instant coffee. That's a completely different story. (Also, Caribou Spicy White- or dark- Choc Mochas ftw!)

Esp doctored... I came home and added Kaluha/vanilla vodka to make a make shift white Russian to my coffee last night and YUM. :D

Oh my God, white chocolate anything is like crack for me. I'm not big on dark choc, TBH.

They make vanilla vodka? I tried vanilla whiskey and have always wanted to have some more, but haven't found it. HMM.

Smirnoff Vanilla Vodka baby. EXPERIENCE IT.

...The Irish side of me really wants to try vanilla whiskey now. I had whiskey liquer once and it was amazing.

I really am not big on vodka, though. The times I've had it made me feel like I was chugging shampoo.

I bought margarita flavored shampoo once, but this is obviously NOT THE SAME

[natural_blue_26]

Vodka mixes really well in things, though. White Russians are a very tasty fall back drink that don't taste *anything* like straight vodka. (Or I just really, really don't like beer and will drink just about anything else.)

Rum > vodka > all other liquids in assorted order > beer

Re: I bought margarita flavored shampoo once, but this is obviously NOT THE SAME

See, I'd take beer over vodka, but having only had two attempts with either (in all but two circumstances I was drinking with my parents, because I'm cool), I suppose I don't have an authoritative opinion. Beer is pretty gross, though.

So, this WAS originally about birthdays and not about booze, right? ;)

[natural_blue_26]

Well, I hope someone takes you out for your birthday (belated if need be) and gets you either a Starburst or a Cocaine Lady (not a crack whore, this is something different) shot. = &hearts:

Heh, no alcohol for me today besides some Irish coffee, actually. I'm staying at home and watching TV with my family. I'm a total whore for warm fuzzies.

BUT I will be bra-shopping and maybe shoe-shopping because OMGSALE.

And also, I will totally be channeling Rachel as a I hone in on those clearance rack wedge heels.

For you, one Xena icon because OMG HOW DO I NOT HAVE AN ICON OF A KICKASS PAIR OF HEELS

[natural_blue_26]

Most excellent :D
