Pods, Punch, and Playtime

Hey all. Rabid here. Got a bit of news. Wait, what? News? Actual new type things being written about? Holy shit, right?

Right. So… We’ve decided that the whole video thing will have to wait. We’ve talked about doing skits, interviews, and drunken rambling before. However, we just don’t have the time to invest in doing silly little videos for your viewing pleasure. Eventually that would be great. It’s something that we want to do, but just can’t at the moment. That makes us sad.

Instead, we invested in a mic. We are going to try out the whole podcasting thing first. We’ll see how that goes. There could be similar stuff involved, but with some minor changes.

Now, I’m not saying that we’ll have something available right away. The mic arrived last weekend, and I haven’t even hooked it up to test it out yet. It’s cute though. Eldritch said it looked like a thermal detonator. So, ya know, we’re off to a good start with that.

Ok, so I’m hoping that maybe we can start messing around with that soon. (I know, I always say that shit… But I really really mean it.)

Moving on… We had some drinks a few weeks back that we never mentioned. It had been a rather shitty week, and I grabbed a few things to make the weekend a bit more relaxing. I bought a new big bottle of UV Peach, which is fantastic by the way, and a Cran-Tangerine juice drink. It was a (very) half-assed version of Sex on the Beach. (Which happens to be one of my favorite drinks.) This was more like Sex by the Pond or something…

The combo was pretty tasty. Now, in true Alchemy fashion… We happened to look over at the booze stash, and ideas started pouring in. Literally. Eldritch decided to try it with some strawberry schnapps and cherry pucker. It turned into fruit punch soda.

No really. It seriously tasted like soda. We will have to do that mix again and actually figure out the amounts for a proper recipe type post. Definitely a sneaky bastard though. Tastes so good, and you’ll chug it in no time. Then, suddenly… BAM! /drunk

Lastly, and somewhat randomly, I’d like to talk about games. I’m sure we’ll end up with plenty of drinking games over time. (These things will be posted as we remember them…) For now though, I’m trying to get more gaming related things here. Drunken Alchemy was spawned from gaming. Most of the drinks are because of tabletop rpg silliness.

So I had a thought…

Let’s try to get a Drunken Alchemy gaming community set up.

El and I are both gamers (obviously), and we play a lot of games. I thought it would be nice to connect with others and possibly have a guild/clan/community in various games. The thing is, we need to know what you’re playing.

So please, comment here and let us know what your favorite games are. If we have them, we’ll stop by and say hi. 😀
