Gruene Violets



Recommended Posts

I just got the biggest kick out of you all!!! Thanks for making my dreary morning better!!!

In St. Louis they have these tubs of Margarita mix that you add a bottle of tequila and then freeze (you probably don't have to freeze) they are good and an alternative to mixing it up all the time. Are they available in Texas? I don't think I could fit the tub in my suitcase because of the funny shape. But really I usually don't drink that much and can drink whatever just thought of this as an idea.

Those are YANKEE margaritas!! We make 'em for REAL down here in Texas, girlfriend!!

Jane--if you want any of those margaritas --or any other mixed drink once we return to our room---it better be pre mixed----I don't know how to make for REAL drinks!!!!! I am bartender challenged!!!

Hell Yeah! Bring on the margies!!!

And shots of Patron! Lick it, slam it, suck it (tequilla of course, get your minds out of the gutter).

Everything is bigger in Texas so my ass will fit right in! HAHAHAHAHAH:lol::lol::lol:

I make my own Margaritas too- easy and so much better than the mix

Pam - I use to lick suck and slam too... sad to say I've graduated and drink with the big boys - (I have a friend who is older and got me drinking straight on the rocks with a garnish of a lemon wedge)

It might come from living for so long where I felt a decided lack of control---but I don't like being that out of it! If I were to drink straight anything, I would be a zombie in nothing flat! Not to mention I would feel like I'd been hit by a Mack Truck the next morning.

I don't mind a few mixed drinks on occasion, lightly mixed so they taste like something besides alcohol---but I would never have one unless we were out, or celebrating, or had a party going on. I don't think I have ever drank by myself......hmmmm

OMG I bore myself!!!

LOL Kat

Well, since being banded and drinking nothing for 9 months... I am done after 1 good mixed drink.

My days of drinking straight tequila are done, I can't function the next day... now grape vodka and crystal light I feel great the next day. But if I was to do a shot of tequila it would be without the lick and suck.

A totally girly shot... Buttery Nipple anone? they are so yumm

It is funny...I talk a ton of BS w/ the drinking. Yes, I do like me some margies...and yes, I will do a (singular) shot of Patron (on occasion, 2) but that is it...and then sip on a margie. I also don't like getting "out of it". I haven't been too drunk since college (which as you all know...I am still in college...KIDDING...I mean as an undergrad.) I like being in control...I like acting silly...I love to chat w/ my amigas...I love to relax...but I love me always being in control of me.

I just don't want ya'll to think I am a lush.

It is funny too...I can and usually do go months w/o a drink. It is always Spring that there are so many festivities that I tend to drink more.

Yeah, Haydee's picking up IAH because she lives very close to the airport. Tracy, you're picking up the late San Antonio crowd.

Hah, I know me & Kat get there early at IAH. I don't care who it is that picks us up, as long as we aren't stuck there. Airport restaurants & bars are NOT CHEAP!! Teehee.

Buttery nipples are good, when we entertain customers that's generally what I get. Last time at a mexican restaurant, our waiter did not speak good english and I didn't know the translation for buttery or nipple. I kept saying "Buttery nipple", and I think he understood what I said, but thought I was mis-speaking.. so he had me write it down on his pad hah.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
