"blorg"…Twice.
This photo captures me explaining to my friend Brian how I drank too much of my amazing hot cocktail. Warning: chai + pomegranate juice + lemon slices + lots of spiced rum tastes really really REEAAAAALLY good, but it will fuck you up. You may find yourself hanging half out of your tent blorging into the dirt. Your husband may then have to clean it up.
Note to self: drink a cup of chai the morning after barfing up chai cocktail might not be wise.
Trivia time! In this photo I am wearing a dress purchased in a Phish show parking lot in 1994. It’s my official “morning after” dress.

I think the face you’re making is what really makes the picture so priceless.
And I hear ya on the “don’t drink the mixer from the offending beverage the next morning” - I was off of orange juice for a LONG TIME after an evening of mixing my own screwdrivers at the age of 18.

My god that sounds delicious!
You know what made me sad about this post? I think we’re the a dying breed of bloggers that actually remember 1994 and were living life in it and not wagging at mom’s coat tails. I’m feeling old now.

Ranee, that’s odd — I feel like I know a bazillion 30something bloggers. Head to a blog conference like blogher or sxsw to see what I mean.
