You are a Mai Tai |
You aren't a big drinker, but you'll drink if the atmosphere is festive. And when you're drunk, watch out! You're easily carried away. |
Around Christmas 1995 a friend came to visit me in my newly married, presumably happy, life in Michigan. We went to a museum where we saw an exhibit of a Japanese tea room. Outside the display was an attempt to describe this exhibit. It started with something like: “Within the tea room, one feels loneliness which penetrates into the marrow of one’s bones...” and ended with the caution “Please do not enter the tea room”. I laughed out loud. If you don’t get it, you probably should leave.

Mai Tai....
Got a big old rant in here just waiting to come out but no time now. For now, I am a Mai Tai. It is much more fun and exotic than "I am a stressed out grad student"
Hey, I'm a mai tai too! I don't think I've ever even tried one.
ReplyDeleteI'm the bloody mary to your mai tais.
ReplyDelete"You're a fairly serious drinker, who's experimented a lot with different drinks. You're a drunk, but a stable drunk. You don't ever let your drinking get out of control."
I'm a drunk, but a stable drunk. Thank god for small favors.
