Anybody else going to sedate themselves for the debate?
I am. 200mg of tramadol oughta do it. I know I'll succumb to that sore tooth impulse to watch the pundit shills afterwards, and I dont want to end up busting my tv and have to spend the money to replace it.

1. have no intention of watching-- will be bad enough reading afterwards.
besides, why should we even bother, when it has already been stated that chimpy won the debate?

6. Attending Party 'Plant a bush in Texas'....
I can't stay home and watch with my republican hub, unless I give him a sleeping pill. I'm attending a Kerry party, Plant a Bush in Texas.

11. I love those of you who can marry Repubs...
Edited on Wed Sep-29-04 02:05 PM by PittLib
I don't think I could! My dad and his brother are conservatives, but their wives are liberals. I don't get it. I think my dad is the vocal one, and my stepmom stays quiet - and my aunt is very vocal while my uncle stays quiet. That's all I can figure.
Ps. My dad and aunt got into it at a wedding this past weekend. I hear it wasn't pretty ... but I'm finding new respect for her!

:toast:

edit to give credit!

8. would be good to have prescription drug coverage at a time like this.
I'm there! I've been worrying about this and how I'm going to get through this, that I STARTED medicating a couple of DAYS AGO.

10. Oh yes!
I will be home alone so I plan to start drinking about 7:00. I am a cheap drunk so that should do it. Maybe tequila, maybe just beers. I have to be alert enough to record the damned thing so I will have to keep drinking in order to sit through it a second time with my husband. If I do not do this I am likely to throw things.

14. That's illegal!
oh yeah, so's my Tramadol...

could go for some absinthe myself. My sister shipped some over from Spain when she went for a visit a couple years ago, telling the PO agent the package contained olive oil in tin (shipping glass is also prohibited) with a flitter of her eyelashes. But its all gone now. Where'd you get it? I know of some places on the internet, but they charge a fortune.

15. From France
Edited on Wed Sep-29-04 03:19 PM by wtmusic
it's La Fee, with the European limit on thujone, but it's very tasty. About $65/bottle, with the funky little sugar spoon.

onedit: not illegal to own it here, just to sell it.
