Rehab time

It is way past time for rehab to begin. I thought i was gonna start last Friday, but I had to drive home, so I took it easy at the Mexican Restaurant we went to after Happy Hour. The weekend was busy, too many errands to run to have more that a glass of wine or a Bourbon with dinner. Then I thought, maybe it will start at the St. Patty's day party at work during lunch on Friday, but I had a deadline to meet after lunch. Maybe at the beer bash after work? Nope. went home to watch USC come within an inch of tieing UCLA.

It's crunch time my friends. If I don't start rehab soon, it's too late for me. You see, March Madness is upon us. March Madness means it's time for the annual pilgrimage to the holiest of cities, the city where dreams are made and snuffed out equally as fast. It is time to pay the old whore a visit. It's time to go to Vegas.

So you see my dilemma. I have not been exercising my drinking muscles nearly as much as I should have. Family and work commitments have been made a priority, yeah, I know that's my own damn fault. I mean when was the last time you saw a drunk post from your pal Whiskey?

Tonight is the first night of the rest of my life. I must prepare my liver and kidneys for the week ahead. tonight's drink of choice is Bulleit Bourbon, did i mention it's 90 proof? That's 10 more proof than my bff JD!

I've had 2 so far. translation: if I were at a bar the tab would say 8. I think I am well on my way t a successful rehab over the next few days.

Here's the schedule:

Sunday

NASCAR at Bristol, the fastest half mile in motor sports. Not a fan of NASCAR? Take a peek tomorrow. There will be 43 cars running around what looks like a bull ring nose to tail, pretty amazing to see.

Big 12 tourney championship. Rick Barnes and the Longhorns are looking for their first Big 12 Conference title this is their third year in a row in the title game, the previous two loses have come at the hands of Kansas. Sunday's opponent? Kansas. The two teams have split the last 8 regular season games, the team with Home court advantage has won each of those contest. thanks for the research JD.

Selection Day. The brackets for the 2008 NCAA men's hoops tourney will be announced. there will be 65 very happy teams, about 15 very unhappy teams, and millions, no tens of millions of amateur prognosticators filling out brackets for bragging rights.

These events will all be accompanied by a cocktail or two.

Monday:

Work, should be a light day. Then home to do laundry and study up on the point spreads for Thursdays games. I do my best prognosticating with a couple cocktails in my system.

Tuesday:

Work. This is the last day f work for the next 7 days, so I will be sending it setting up ,y away email and voicemail messages. Sounds easy, right? Well, for some it might be, but for this particular time of year, it takes a few takes to get it just right. I don't want to sound too anxious. Then it's home to study up on Friday's spreads while pretending to watch the play in game, gotta keep the OL off my back somehow, all with a cocktail in hand.

Wednesday:

Pack whatever I manage to get my hands on, completely disregarding Monday's laundry and planning, head to the bank for a little spending money, the off to the airport for a couple Blonde Bocks with JD back for 2 bucks more.

I think I have a solid rehab plan set for myself. As always, I am open to suggestions.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot.

****DRUNK POST ALERT****

GKR, how's your pussy?
Betty, how does one get in on this photo assignment dealy?

Did you see the end of the Kansas v Texas A&M game? UGA v. MSU? Boise State New Mexico State? UCLA v Stanford? VA Tech v North Carolina? Arkansas v Tennessee? Wisconsin v Michigan State? Clemson v Duke? I hope you got to see at least one of these finishes, they were all nail biters and very fun to watch.



I would tell you to look for frequent updates on the vegas journey, but I don't want to disapoint you further. I mean if you got this far hoping it would get better, sorry.
