Poll question: I Will Begin Drinking...
Edited on Tue Nov-02-04 02:04 PM by Jack_Dawson
Let's face it...this is a Superbowl Party on Roids. Some of us may need a little helper to deal w/ the stress.

1. You read my mind.
Just thought I'd have a beer.

I have class tonight, and a test (can you believe the idiocy of my professor?) but I'll have a beer or two before I start studying.

9. I'm drinking now, but it's just water!
Can't handle alcohol very well, but I might have a light Bud tonight or whenever I know that our man has been elected. Hope I don't have too long to wait. If I do, my husband will drink it even though he prefers the high octane variety.

12. I'm in Asia and it's 3 AM here
and I have no work tomorrow, so, I'm already five sheets to the wind.

Alright, Ben. So I guess that means, in a few hours, God will give us a REAL President! :-)

36. As I've said before, Scotch whisky for me too.
I just poured myself a small Glenmorangie, before I sit myself down in front of the tv for an episode of CSI. It's 9:18p.m. here. I don't have work tomorrow. And I also have a huge glass of water.

15. I'm on the West coast, so
most of the polls in the East will be closed before I even get home from work. I'll have some champagne to celebrate should Kerry prevail!

28. I just got back from a college psychology midterm...
and I was so worked up about the election that it was likely the toughest exam I had ever taken! I was so mad when I found out myu professor had scheduled an exam for today but now that it is done I am going to grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy the imminent Kerry victory party!
