Holiday Cigar 2018

First Official Cigar of 2018

Sunday, January 21, 2018

I love Asylum 13s. My absolute favorite. I'm counting this as the first official cigar of 2018 due to applying the one earlier in January to 2017.

Happy Hour with Warren

Friday, January 19, 2018 Warren and I did happy hour at the Eagle tonight. New bartender named Tommy who's a real sweet guy. After happy hour Dale and I hosted Warren at our house for Chinese food from Bill's Chinese Garden. Best Chinese take-out I've ever had.

Cigar #55 - Post Christmas Season 2017/2018

I did NOT make my cigar goal of 55 cigars for 2017 within the calendar year. However, my first cigar of 2017 was on January 18 and I did light up a cigar on January 13 of 2018 so I DID make the goal of 55 cigars in just under a year's time. Not bad. Should I go for for more or less is 2018? Could probably handle 60 this year. That comes out to 5 per month which seems pretty reasonable. Other goals for the year include listening to more of The Killers and cleaning up some of the clutter that's accumulated in our house over 20 years of being here. Dale and I are going to see The Killers at the Xcel this Wednesday and I've made some headway over Christmas break getting rid of a bunch of shit in the office so I'm off to a decent start.

Holiday Season 2017 - Warren and Gary

Warren and Gary recently had us over for a post-Christmas gathering. I, of course, had a martini. Warren's signature rum concoction is pictured next to it.

He made a turkey meat loaf and of course the portions were HUGE. Tasty, though... We watched the Judy Garland episode of the E! True Hollywood Story.

Holiday Season 2017 - Bailey's

Mom brought this over on Christmas Day. It sure has been wonderful for holiday season nightcaps.
