At my command we have a designated driver program. No questions asked, no reprocussions, a Sailor can call 24/7 and someone (from a regularly rotating watchbill of volunteers) will come get you. A few friends and I talked about how amusing it would be if, when they arrived, you gave them your own personal CD to put in their stereo. It would consist of all the songs you love to sing along to when you've had a few too many.
These songs, in no particular order, are the songs that would be on my drunken playlist -
What I Got - Sublime
Friends in Low Places - Garth Brooks
Drunken Lullabies - Flogging Molly
Islands in the Stream - Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton
Great Balls of Fire - Jerry Lee Lewis
Radar Love - Golden Earring
I Love Rock N' Roll - Joan Jett
Peaches - Presidents of the USA
Amish Paradise - Weird Al Yankovic
Spirit in the Sky - Norman Greenbaum
You've Lost That Loving Feeling - The Righteous Brothers
Free Fallin' - Tom Petty
Kick Some Ass - Stroke 9
What's My Age Again - Blink 182
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
Steal My Kisses - Ben Harper
I'd Do Anything For Love - Meat Loaf
What would be on your playlist?

I'm a bad blogger
I find myself religiously checking friends' blogs. Watching to see when they update, what new cool things their kids are doing, what new projects they are working on.
I have to admit that I find myself being incredibly jealous of the things they are able to do in their time. The sane part of me knows that I work a more than full time job as well as trying to keep up with the house, a husband, a 2 year old and 2 dogs. Top that with all the additional pressure that I put on myself to be the absolute best (insert any title here) and I'm near the breaking point almost all of the time. But, when I look at their latest adventures in party planning, cake decorating or interior design, I can't help but feel like I'm lacking.
So, in an effort to make myself feel better, I'm going to make a list of all the things that I truly think are important, particularly during this holiday season. And then if I get extra time, I'll add a few things from the "would be nice if" list.
Now, maybe if I get some free time, I'll put together this list and post it here.
