Oh, fucking hell, yeah. I got some pear brandy in the back of the fridge. And I got... some pretty good French sugar wafers. Girly, I know, but alcohol nontheless. Pour you a shot?
I've got about a gallon of really good homemade honey mead cut with about a cup of vodka, if anyone wants a cup or 3. No seriously, we made too much a year ago, and we've been trying to finish it off every since.
It really was a made for tv moment.

Yeah, I was thinking liquid nitrogen, or even better, liquid helium.
I have a friend that worked at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and he used to have a 4 liter Dewer's flask.
Needless to say he and his JPL buddies used to "borrow" a fair amount of liquid nitrogen for party tricks.
Well, once as they were driving out of the secured parking area, just as they were approaching the guardpost the flask tipped over in the back of the car, immediately filling the car with white vapor. Not to mention oxygen-replacing nitrogen gas.
The only thing to do in that situation is to roll down the windows and stick your head out to keep from suffocating, huge clouds of vapor pouring out and everything.
Luckily the my friend knew the guard on duty, and the guard was pretty familiar with their assgrabbery by that point. He said "I really, really don't want to know. I don't want to fill out the damn paperwork. I don't want to ask any questions. So, please, just keep driving and get the fuck out of here before anyone important sees you." And they did.
He doesn't work there anymore, but it wasn't due to his assgrabbery.
Hell, once he even had to hack into his own computer in his office, from his home unix server, logged into that computer from a remote location, with a man-in-the-middle attack launched from the home unix box. Of course, JPL takes their computer security very, very seriously. The intrusion and spoofing was detected. He had to simultaneously drive home to his folks house at highly illegal speeds to his personal Unix box and make a number of frenetic phone calls to keep the feds from busting down the door of his parent's house, where the personal Unix box was physically located at. And yet he still wasn't fired. Yeah, he's a smart cookie, but ill suited for government work.
I would love to get drunk, but I have to go to work soon, so that is probably not a good idea. Not because going to work drunk would be a bad idea, but driving to work drunk would be.
Heh, I shouldn't even be thinking about guys yet. I haven't even been separated for three weeks yet. So I suspect it's for the best.
Still sucks, though. (beer #3)
Drink! Drink! Drink!
To eyes that are bright as stars when they're shining on me!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
To lips that are red and sweet as the fruit on the tree!
Here's a hope that those bright eyes will shine
Lovingly, longingly soon into mine!
May those lips that are red and sweet,
Tonight with joy my own lips meet!
