Guess I can't make you stop for beer anymore ;-)
ReplyDeleteits all worth it...just look at my bundle of joy..
ReplyDeleteYes, you do show! Great! And did you explain to Shrike about the whole alcohol thing?
ReplyDeleteUh, yeah...
ReplyDeleteYes, you are showing! Tahee! How sweet. Enjoy. Hope you're feeling well.
ReplyDeleteI came over from Wordless Wednesday... nice to meet you.
What Shrike is referring to is that in MyWorkState you can buy beer/wine at convenience stores (just like back home in Texas), in HerWorkState you have to go to a liquor store for any alcohol and in BlueState, where we live, oh my God, it's ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteFor a six-pack of beer, you go to the "package store," connected to a bar/restaurant.
(They can also sell you a six-pack to go inside, at the bar itself.)
For a case of beer, you go to the beer distributor.
For anything else, you have to go to the state owned and operated "wine and spirits" store.
(Sometimes refered to as just "the state store.")
Soooooo, a few weeks ago, she asked me to pick her up a six-pack of beer on my way home, at the convenience store across the street from work.
(Of course, this would be the one time that I walk in and see a student and his parent at the check-out counter. I waited til they left.)
At the time, I told her that I didn't mind at all (I didn't) but that I won't buy her beer once I'm showing, because I don't want people to think it's for me.
At this point, I think I can still pass Peeper off as a beer-belly, so I don't mind yet, but pretty soon she'll have to buy her own.
(Oddly enough, in the ten months I've worked there, I think I've only picked up beer for her once, and maybe a post-negative-beta bottle of wine for myself once.)
One correction - I've worked there for eleven months, not that it matters.
ReplyDeleteAnd one clarification - Shrike will have to buy her own beer. Not Peeper. She doesn't get to buy her own for quite a while.
:-)
YOU LOOK MAHVELOUS!!!!! I'm so excited for you two!!!! And for Peeper!! :)
ReplyDeleteI was sure that the beer thing was just for convenience, not for you, but had to tease her. Had no idea that it was so complicated. California, which have visited a few times, had everything, even hard liquor, at the grocery store.
ReplyDeleteThat whole from this state to that state to the other state in a day always startles me. We Texans can't usually just run over although of course I can to ONE other one.
Tell Shrike that I did not mean to seriously suggest anything risky!
Heh - guess you are. Either that, or you ate a lot of pies in the last couple of weeks!
ReplyDeleteAnonymama - I know you were just kidding.
ReplyDeleteThe liquor laws here are crazy.
When I described it to BabyBro, he referred to is as having to "go to the Governor's mansion to get a bottle of wine."
(Luckily, I know the Governor :-) )
In Lousiana you can buy everything, hard liquor included, at convenience stores. Shrike moved from there to BlueState. Quite the culture shock for her.
Deion's Mom - Thanks, thanks and thanks. Will we see you at Pride?
Vee - Or both.
Like drinking beer while skateboarding? :-)
ReplyDeleteI live in fear of having someone (who only knows half of what is going on with us) asking me when I am due.
