Long and crazy and exhausting day yesterday, had to go to Mohegan Sun for the Connecticut/Rhode Island Clean Cities conference of all things. Will try and offer some details later, the conference was pretty unextraordinary, Mohegan Sun was insane, an unholy hybrid of casino, mall, and Epcot's Native People's exhibit, I've never been to a casino or a Mohegan temple before and Mohegan Sun is both. Kind of. Car broke down on the way home, ironically, leaving me stranded in the right lane on I-95 south for a good 15 minutes during rush hour.
But enough whining, the car is not too badly fucked up it turns out, we're playing with The Fall tomorrow, and it's almost weekend-time! If you are having a party this weekend, or drinking, or like having parties, or drinking in general, on the weekends, or during the week even, you should be reading the Happy Hours bartender-blog, featuring drink recipies, invaluable advice on being a good host, and all the wit and wisdom you could ask for in a good bartender. This week includes posts on party insurance and a long meditation on bullfighting featuring the recipe for a drink called 'Blood and Sand', which is an awesome name for a drink or a bar or a band or a book or anything really. Let's all have awesome weekends OK!
