I just opened a bottle of petite sirah. No occasion. It's Saturday night and I've got nowhere to go, so why not attempt to polish off a bottle of wine?

Shots of whiskey and then later just whiskey and lemonade because it's taking me way too damn long to try and have a kid.

Oh yeah! How was the wax??? I'm too much of a chicken.
I'm drinking Pinot of the Noir variety. Or maybe margaritas. Maybe both. With spicy chili. DH is out of town so I'm living like a college student.
It wasn't too bad! The inside of the lips hurts a lot, but it's a quick pain. The girl was awesome and we talked a lot which removed my embarassement.

Nice (on the bikini wax)! Did they end up having you get on all fours? ;-)
We're going to Chili's later, so I might have a daiquiri. Either way, I'll be wine-ing it up later for sure.
NO!! I just brought my knees to my chest. Reallllly less awkward than I thought it would be!

Spicy chili.... I just couldn't... the atomic red eye would kill me
I'm going on vacay tomorrow, too! We're headed to Hawaii. i just wrapped up my last work project so I am official checked out now! Celebrating with a piña colada while I bump/pack/clean. ALOHA!
I am drinking my feelings tonight... As I am on cycle day 4 and everyone keeps telling me of their pregnancy announcements! Super excited for them though!
I am drinking champaigne as it is the only thing we have in the house lol!
I was hoarding this bottle because my neighbor brought it over for us to drink all together, and we never got to her bottle. I was saving it for the next time she came over... BUT my supplies are low and there's no way in hell I'm going to buy more.
Went to dinner with my husband and drank a big fat jumbo margarita. I'm about to pour the biggest glass of wine ever, because my sister is being freaking ridiculous.
She claims I borrowed something from her 7 years ago, and she wants me to bring it to her tomorrow. She says since I don't remember borrowing it and can't find it, that must mean that my dog destroyed it. And then, she pulls a guilt trip on me that "(they) can't afford another one. We'll just have to go to Plan B." She said that right after I said, "If I can't find it, I have one that we are not using. I will bring that one to you." Somehow, that was the wrong thing to say...and it warranted a guilt trip for something I don't even remember borrowing.
My response was, "So, you don't want me to bring the one I said I would?" Her response was, "whatever."
Ugh!!!
Meanwhile, my mom says, "Oh, I think we borrowed that. I remember sleeping on it."

Love it. I always drink a bottle when DH is OOT. And I may or may not dine on Kraft Mac N cheese and hot dogs too.
This evening I'm drinking Dogfishhead Pumpkin bc it's DH's bday and he's not drinking so someone has to.
I'm drinking organic sulfite free "red table wine". Whatever bitches, it was 8.99. the cabs and merlots and shirazes were 14.99. This wine doesn't make me tired. Drinking cuz H is in a bad mood, my stomach hurts from my first few days of Pilates (and because it just always hurts), I had my CD 3 bloods done today and I have to TTA for the next 2-3 cycles. So, fucking cheers.

I'm suppose to be drunk off my ass on wine and Jell-O shots at my Mardi Gras party for the group I ride with. Instead I'm drinking water laying on the couch on the bump because my RE told me no alcohol while I'm doing the injections.
@catmagick I'm really sorry that you have to TTA. That really blows. I hope your wine is amazing at least.
@pintobean39 I'm sorry you can't drink! I previously had no idea that sometimes people had to not drink alcohol or caffeine during some medicated cycles. It's looking like I might be headed that route, and I really feel sorry for my husband and my co-workers if I can't have caffeine or alcohol while on hormonal medication.

@lebradford they didn't tell me no caffeine just no alcohol and partying and it's mardi gras season here. I have parties every night of every weekend until the sat before Fat Tuesday.
I normally don't drink but one cup of caffeine a day (my morning coffee) but I have been sneaking a chi tea in every afternoon and my son an I have gone to have tea and scones a couple of afternoons. I gotta have something.
