My co-worker, Carrie, has secretly had a blog, nothingbutthenews.typepad.com and recently told me about it.
I’ve been wanting to post her “Ode To Beer” that she composed while she was pregnant with her daughter for some time. I figure this is the perfect time to do so. I hope you appreciate it as much as I did.
“Oh beer, how i miss thee,
you made me feel so frisky.
I miss your lovely golden hue.
Hell, at this point, a domestic would do.
You taunt me, gleaming, in that glass.
Not having you MAY drive me to kick some ass.
My constant companion, my forever friend,
I hate that our love affair had to come to an end.
But like Arnold once said, I will be back.
Until then I’ll back off, you’re a pregnant chick’s crack.”
Amen,
That may be reason 456,897,908 I don’t want kids. 9 months without drinking. I can feel her angst!
True story.
One of my best friends gave up beer for Lent … forgetting that St. Patrick’s Day falls DURING Lent.
He was miserable.
That was beautiful.
(sniffle, sniffle)
Thats great. Funny I stumble across this as I am in the middle of writing an ode to Salad!
