Does Your Style Jive With Your Sign?
7.25.2006
Aries:
Impulsive Aries people like to party and sometimes don't know when to call it a night. Their competitive streak makes them prone to closing time shot contests. They're sloppy, fun drunks, and they get mighty flirty after a couple tipples. Getting Aries people drunk is a good way to get what you want out of them, should other methods fail. Aries can become bellicose when blotto, but they will assume that whatever happened should be forgiven (if not forgotten) by sunrise. They can be counted on to do the same for you -- so long as you haven't gone and done anything really horrible to them last night, you sneaky Gemini.
Taurus:
Taurus prefers to drink at a leisurely pace, aiming for a mellow glow rather than a full on zonk. Since a truly intoxicated Taurus is a one-person stampede, the kind of bull-in-a-china-shop inebriate who spills red wine on white carpets and tells fart jokes to employers, the preference for wining and dining (or Bud and buddies) to body shots and barfing is quite fortunate for the rest of us. This is not to say that the Bull is by any means a teetotaler -- god, no. A squiffy Taurus will get, er, gregarious (full of loudmouth soup, some would say) and is extremely amusing to drag to a karaoke bar when intoxicated.
Gemini:
Gemini’s can drink without changing their behavior much -- they're so naturally chatty and short-attention-spanned that it's just hard to tell sometimes. They can amaze you by conversing with finesse and allusions, then doing something to belie an extremely advanced state of intoxication, like puking in your shoe. Gemini’s possess the magic ability to flirt successfully (and uninfuriatingly, which is very tricky) with several people at once. They like to order different cocktails every round -- repetition is boring -- and may create a theme (like yellow drinks: beer, sauvignon blanc and limoncello) for their own amusement.
Cancer:
Cancer is a comfort drinker -- and an extra wine with dinner or an after-work beer or six can be extra comforting, can't it, Cancer darling? Like fellow water signs Scorpio and Pisces, Crabs must guard against lushery. Cancers are brilliant at ferreting out secret parties and insinuating themselves on
Leo:
Leo likes to drink and dance -- they're often fabulous dancers, and usually pretty good drinkers as well, losing their commanding dignity and turning kittenish. Of course, they're quite aware they're darling -- Leos will be Leos, after all. They generally know their limit, probably because they loathe losing self-control. When they get over-refreshed, expect flirting to ensue -- and perhaps not with the one what brung them. But Leo's not the type to break rules even when drunk, so just try to ignore it (try harder, Cancer) and expect a sheepish (and hung over) Lion to make it up to you the next day.
Virgo:
Cerebral Virgos are compelled to impose order onto their bender. Their famously fussy quest for purity could lead to drinking less than other signs, sure -- but it could also lead to drinking booze neat, to sucking down organic wine or just to brand loyalty. They rarely get fully shellacked -- but, oh, when they do! Virgo's controlled by the intellect, but there's an unbridled beast lurking within, and they let it loose when walloped. It's dead sexy (and surprisingly unsloppy). As one Virgo friend used to declare, "I'm going to drink myself into a low level of intelligence tonight." A toast to the subgenius IQ!
Libra:
"I'm jusht a social drinker," slurs Libra, "it's jusht that I'm so damn social?" Libra loves nothing more than to party, mingle and relate to everyone. Whether dipped in favor of Good Libra (with Insta-Friend device set to "on") or heavier on the Evil Libra side (they are little instigators when bored), the Scales can really work a room. Charming as they are, Libras are notoriously lacking in self-control, however, which can get them into all sorts of trouble -- including wearing their wobbly boots waaaay too early in the evening, flirting with their best friend's beau or even blacking out the night’s events entirely. Oops!
Scorpio:Don't ever tell Scorpios they've had enough, for they'll smirk at you and quietly but intentionally keep tippling till they're hog whimpering drunk, out of 100-proof spite. Scorpios like to drink, and screw you if you have a problem with that. Most of them see the sauce as something to savor in itself, and not as a personality-altering tool -- though if depressed, self-loathing Scorps seek total obliteration. But generally, they're fascinating drinking pals, brilliant conversationalists and dizzying flirts. They also remember everything -- especially what you did when you were blitzed. Only drink with a Scorpio who likes you.
Sagittarius:In vino veritas -- and, for Sagittarius, in booze blurtiness:
When buttered, they'll spill all your secrets and many of their own. Tactlessness aside, Sagittarius is just plain fun to drink with. This is a sign of serious partying (what else would you expect from the sign of Sinatra, Keith Richards, the Bush twins and Anna Nicole Smith?). They're the people who chat up everyone in the room, then persuade the entire crowd to travel somewhere else -- like a nightclub, or a playground, or
Capricorn is usually described as practical, steadfast, money-hungry and status-thirsty -- no wonder they get left off the astrological cocktail-party list. But this is the sign of David Bowie and Annie Lennox, not to mention Elvis. Capricorn is the true rock star: independent, powerful and seriously charismatic, not too eager to please. And if they make money being themselves, who are you to quibble? But just like most rock stars, they're either totally on or totally off, and they generally need a little social lubricant to loosen up and enjoy the after party, especially if they can hook up with a cute groupie.
Aquarius:
Aquarius and drinking don't go together that well (except for water, that is). They have an innate tendency toward know-it-allism, and if they get an idea while sizzled, they're more stubborn than a stain or a stone. If they're throwing a party or organizing an outing, however, they're too preoccupied with their duties to get combative -- and they make perfectly charming drunks in that case. Fortunately, they're usually capital drink-nursers. They also make the best-designated drivers (if you can get them before they start raising their wrist): Aquarius is fascinated by drunken people and capable of holding interesting conversations with soused strangers while sober.
Pisces:If you're a Pisces, you've probably already heard that you share a sign -- and an addictive personality -- with Liz Taylor, Liza Minelli and Kurt Cobain. Not only do Pisces like to lose themselves in the dreamy, out-there feeling that only hooch can give, but they build up a mighty tolerance fast. Who needs an expensive date like that? On the other hand, they’re fabulously enchanting partners, whether in conversation or in crime. With the right Pisces, you can start out sharing a pitcher of margaritas and wind up in bed together for days. The phrase "addictive personality" can be read two ways, you know.

As it turns out, our last booze recipient has gone MIA. Fortunately, the lovely lady Lily has agreed to help us get the drinks to the table for the next person. And should MIA recipient turn back up? Well, I think she'll be sending Lily a hefty thank-you bottle of Burbon.*
*naturally, it doesn't have to be Burbon, but you know, it sounded more melodic and I'm strange.
the end.

It's all WWW.PAMIE.COM/FORUM's Fault!
At first I was a little mortified because I had planned a get together with cousins and my friend Ale, and all of a sudden, I found myself having to deal with real life work isues, and was wary of not happening.
Then my sis called and said it was gonna take them a leetle bit more time for them to get here. And my friend Ale IM'd me saying that the boy who she's *seeing* had invited her over for some *dinner*.
Oh, what can I say, when you're about to get some, You GET SOME. I don't care about friendship shit and of course I respect that when my friends have it going on.
So, all of a sudden it was me, my cousin Alex and a supersized container of Mojito mixed drink.
Check out how classy I am mixing drinks in my normally filled with Orange Juice container. A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. I say.
So, I began drinking and, OF COURSE, eating
OBVIOUSLY
And Alex and I got into a conversation. And our swimsuits. Because, er... my apartment complex. Has a POOL! In which water is SO HOT! And not in the ohh eehh physically PHAT water, but mostly the 'My God, I could freaking get cooked into a soup in this water, but Goddamn a pool, man' kind of way.
So we begin drinking, and drinking and talking and swimming in the pool and talking a bit more and of course, what with alcohol being a inhibitor, (or disinhibitor?) and all, all of a sudden Alex and I began talking about relationships.
And then...er....Sex? When is it that you cross a line when you are talking with a fellow relative about sex? And like, sex? really?
Thankfully, my sister and my cousin arrived and got into the pool with us, and neighbors kept coming and I would take pics with my phone camera, and I was getting drunker and drunker by the minute and it is not a good thing people, because I was in a pool! And some of my fellow pamie.com/forum peeps already know what happens when I drink more than three drinks and it was kind of dangerous for me to fall asleep all of a sudden in A POOL, but I managed and here is the proof:
And here:
Oh, and I forgot to say that OF COURSE because IT IS ME, I suffered a 'mild accident' in which my bikini top snap thing BROKE and my boobs were in danger of having been seen by God knows who, and right after that my bikini bottom untied itself loose and GOD I kept screaming bloody murder because people in my apartment complex happening to see my naked self is never a good thing and I was freaking out.
And my cousin was having such a great reaction to all of this:
And having the most of fun.
So, because of www.pamie.com/forum I will now be known as the big boobed girl who happened to share TMI while at the pool with her cousin and then she freaked out and people looked over their windows to see what was happening and it was because of a girl who was at the pool whose boobs were about to be shared with the whole apartment complex and dammit! so close.
Then I came back upstairs, took a shower and fell asleep on the couch.
The end.
Oh, I am also posting this while having Mojito Leftovers which is not a good sight to see because Day old Mojito = Looks like swampwater.
Still tasty though.
Thank you oh Boozefest 2006 for having made this possible.
Toodles!

IT'S HERE!
7.01.2006
So, yesterday afternoon, my sister called to let me know that there was a big, brown box for me waiting at my parents house.
I got all ways of excited, because I knew that it meant I was the first one to receive and that my booze was here!
So, today, and with my sister's help, we got to open the box and be amazed at the wonders Amanda sent me.
Here's a recap:
When I first opened the box I found not one, but two envelopes from Amanda. Later on I discovered what they were gonna be for.After perusing through the sea of foam pebbles I discovered the following:
Amanda Sent me a bottle of Bacardi Rum, and some Mojito Mix, and most importantly, a bottle of Texan Wine! I don't know what I am more excited about, or perhaps I am excited about it all! But it's so awesome, because now I have booze to drink and even instructions to follow, look:
So, now I have instructions to follow so I can have fun (thank you so much, Manda, for not following Ericka's advice and telling me in writing to drink with the dog) and I am already plotting who I will end up inviting over to my place and having Mojitos with!
MOJITOS!! I don't know if any of you gals remember, but it is exactly how it all started last year. Amanda, you had a great Idea.
Thank you so much, so so much!

A wedding
Dear Compatriots
What is the proper amount of alcohol to consume at a wedding?
What if it's open bar?
What if I take a flask in my purse?
