I've decided that, for me, 2026 will begin on February 1. January is a free trial month. So, you can take this week's Deep Thoughts Thursday with The Boozy Weathergirl or leave it.

I went to a Happy Hour at a restaurant this past week. Everything was fine, until I went to order my drink. There was every blend of wine on "sale" except Sauvignon Blanc. WTF? If you can put a shitty Chardonay or Muscato on a menu, you can most definitely find a Sauvi B to offer, dammit!

The best meme shared with me this week - If teachers had IEPs (that's Individualized Education Programs for my non-school colleagues), on-the-job drinking would be part of our accommodations and required by law.

My dear friend, Erica, reached out with a pet peeve this week. I know she is not alone in this. While her hubby valiantly protects their vehicles by swerving to avoid a manhole cover or small pothole, she wonders where is the sense in doing that if it means swerving into oncoming traffic to do so. #SMH

I've been married longer than I lived with my parents. So, honestly, whatever is wrong with me at this point is on him.

5

I recently visited the World's Tiniest Wind Turbine exhibit. Honestly, not a big fan.

6

I've decided that the perfect job for me would be the person who stains things for detergent commercials.

I cannot hear a word you are saying if your hoodie strings are uneven.

The beginning of a new year always makes me think of weight loss. I bet I would actually be motivated to lose weight if I could guarantee the weight I lost would be added onto somebody I hate.

The good news is that my drinking mistakes aren't nearly as bad as I get older. Now, I wake up like, "Did I sign up for Paramount Plus last night?' as opposed to, "Am I going to need to see a doctor or take a test for what I just did?"

The fact that I procrastinate and still get the job done is the exact reason why I procrastinate.

You know what is orange but DOESN'T get enough airtime? A good, old-fashioned Bloody Mary. A hangover cure? Check! Your daily vegetable intake? Check! Can be enhanced with bacon? Check! I mean, what is there not to love? While many do indulge in this in the morning, it really can be a treat at any time of the day. Sub this one in for a pre-dinner salad and thank me later!
