Okay, I've been driven to drink...that should be funny to Arky, MsNo, and Magoseph...as if I need to be driven!

We bought this big bowl of chunks of watermelon and I filled a glass with some of them, added vodka and soda and ice and it is HEAVEN.

Perfecy Memorial Day weekend drink...pre-tested and approved!

heh...perfecT. (See, I told you it was good!)

26426. arkymalarky - 5/15/2011 10:53:19 PM

Sounds great! I'm recovering from some kind of crud--103 temp yesterday. Glad it will be well past me when y'all get here. I'm looking so forward to it!

Hell, drive me, shove me, pull me in a little red wagon!

Just don't let me mix the Margaritas. Mose can attest.

Arky, are y'all still in a dry county? ;-)

26429. arkymalarky - 5/16/2011 8:33:04 PM

No, but a hard liquor store hasn't been built yet. Plenty of beer and wine but not a wide selection yet. It still seems weird.
I'm home sick again today. Thought i'd be over it by now. Got a zpack from the doc, so hopefully I'll be able to clean my house next weekend!

26430. judithathome - 5/16/2011 11:25:05 PM

Okay, we'll bring some vodka, wine, and whatever else you think we might need. Let me know....

26431. arkymalarky - 5/17/2011 12:08:24 AM

Truly don't worry about any of that. Bob works right by Hot Springs and is going with a list of mine--I'll add vodka to it, I had put gin--this week.

26432. judithathome - 5/17/2011 5:00:49 AM

No no no...I'll bring the vodka! Already have it.

Just keep an eye out for a watermelon!

26433. Ms. No - 5/19/2011 4:23:11 PM

especially the exploding kind

A metaphor for the explosive growth of the Chinese economy. Watch out for shrapnel. Those watermelon seeds make you look like you've got moles. Or ticks.

On the other hand. If you inject the vodka into the watermelon before it explodes. Might be interesting. The entire party should be naked, for maximum impact.

I was writing a novel about the crisis of the Euro, lots of whistleblowing and lots of sex. NICE sex.

And then Dominique Strauss-Kahn fucks it up. NASTY sex.

26436. wabbit - 5/21/2011 12:15:52 AM

Anything I can UPS to you? Should I bring boots?

26437. arkymalarky - 5/21/2011 12:40:44 AM

I think we're good! Boots and a paddle boat if it keeps raining. It had been dry and cool until today.

Judith, did y'all get storms? Looks like some wicked stuff headed this way from TX.

26438. judithathome - 5/21/2011 5:47:26 AM

It skipped us...we got rain but not bad storms at all.

We seem to have been pretty lucky thus far...

26439. arkymalarky - 5/21/2011 3:49:54 PM

This ended up being just rain--lots of it.

26440. judithathome - 5/24/2011 7:53:09 PM

My houseguests left at 8am for...allegedly...four weeks in San Antonio.

I am alone in the house for the first time in two weeks. It's heaven.

26441. judithathome - 6/2/2011 8:24:15 PM

Memorial Day weekend at the Arky's was great! The weather was beautiful and the company was fun...one thing that a good friend of ours didn't think was funny: he has heard us rave about how great these weekends are every year and decided to come up and check it out for himself...he has a sister who lives in Hot Springs...didn't let US know he was coming, was just going to call us once he was in Hot Springs and ask for directions. As a SURPRISE.

Never having been a Boy Scout, he wasn't prepared...didn't have our cell phone numbers! When we got back home to FW, there were 7 messages from him that went from excited to worried to deeply disappointed resignation...we're all laughing about it now but I'd be willing to bet he never leaves the house without several friends' cell numbers ever again.

26442. arkymalarky - 6/2/2011 9:15:11 PM

we had a wonderful weekend! maybe he'll be prepared for the next one!

26443. judithathome - 6/2/2011 11:43:45 PM

Who doesn't call a mutual friend in that situation and get our cell phone number(s) from THEM?

Lunatic David, that's who!
