La la la Bloggy Stuff

I would normally post something like this on my personal blog, but since it’s been over a month here, I thought I’d show DA some love.

I had some time off from work, which was awesome. Very nice to be away from the standard daily bullshit. However, today was the first day back. Bleh.

Last night, I started to feel the dread. The kind that starts to sap your soul, and drag you down into a horrible mood of doom and gloom. It sucks to have a job that you have to convince yourself to go to. It pays the bills. DA does not.

That is the biggest reason why we don’t post here as often as we should. Work schedules hinder time to do experiments, take pictures, and write up randomness for here.

It makes us sad alchemists. :(

In less depressing news, and what saved my day today… New music!

Last night, in an effort to counter the blah mood, I bought a bunch of new stuff. Well, new to my collection. There were some older albums in the mix, but all of it was still good. Music keeps me going at work. (And anywhere else.) Granted, I only get about 2 hours and a break worth of it at work, but hey, it’s needed. Having my own music playing means that I’m less likely to punch stupid people. (No jail time for me today!)

Fun things that I got, and that you should get too:

How is this ramble even related to DA? Well, do you like going to quiet parties and clubs? No. You don’t. If you do, seriously, leave now. You’re boring. Fuck off.

Music is a key thing at bars and clubs. You have to get the right atmosphere happening. Whether it’s low ‘just chillin’ here’ key or high ‘in your fucking face’ energy, it keeps the mood going. People tend to have more fun if there is a good song on.

On that note, I usually request Baby Got Back when I’m out at bars or clubs. I once got the entire bar at Milwaukee’s 42 Lounge to sing along to the entire song. It was awesome. (Did I mention that it was a Mad Scientist party too? Woo!!)

And now for something boozy… (Since I just remembered that I have some booze news to talk about.)

A couple of weeks ago, a minion brought over some tribute. He brought us a big (I mean BIG) bottle of Cherry Doctor, as well as something we had never tried before. It’s called Sweet Revenge.

This stuff is pretty damn tasty. It looks innocent enough in the little bottle. All pretty and pink. However, this stuff gets a sneaky bastard stamp. It ranks up there with regular vodka for strength. So be careful… Sweet, a little tart, and comes with a punch to the face.

If I try out any of the recipes on the Sweet Revenge website, I’ll try to let you know how they turned out. (Sweet Affair looks rather yummy…)

Oh, and I should mention… Eldritch has a Twitter account now!
