Ketel One - The Devil's Venom: A Cautionary Tale

Alicia Keys performed at The Tabernacle last night in Atlanta to help two local radio personalities celebrate their ninth anniversary on the air. I attended the concert with one of my BFFs, let's call her "Elle". Neither of us are what you would consider huge AK fans but decided to go since the tickets were free.

Upon entering the concert venue, our first order of business was to get a cocktail. Elle is a Goose-n-Juice girl (Grey Goose and cranberry juice) and last night I was up for the same. The bartender informed us they only had Ketel One so we went with what was flowing. Since I was driving and I am only a social drinker, my limit was two and Elle had four. After talking, laughing, and allowing Miss Keys to bore us to death with her new material, we left and were home by 11:30 p.m.

No big deal, right? Wrong!!

Elle informed me this morning that her husband found her on their bathroom floor butterball nekkid and had to put her in the bed. I didn't have quite as hard a time but I felt "hungover" until about 4:00 p.m., behind 2 cocktails! I know Grey Goose is a premium Vodka but I had never before heard of Kettle One nor do I ever want to again. In fact, I wants no part of anything that has "kettle" in it...kettle corn, Kettle potato chips, tea kettle, kettle hole.....yeah, you get the idea.

I've Been Tagged.......

I've been tagged by AJ at Over Analyze It to participate in a meme. A meme is akin to a chain letter where I have to tag other bloggers and post 7 random and/or weird facts about myself.

Just the facts (I'll let you determine if they're weird or not):

  1. I was attacked by a swarm of yellow jackets in the summer of 2006
  2. I want to be featured in Essence Magazine's annual "they look good for their age" issue.
  3. I love wrapping gifts and I'm good at it.
  4. My favorite hobby is photography.
  5. I have a mole on my bellybutton.
  6. I drove my first car off the dealer's lot without having my driver's license.
  7. I own 75 pairs of shoes.

Now, since I'm new to the blogging world, I don't know of anyone I can tag. So this is how you can help me out. Once you read this, leave a comment with 7 random facts about yourself as an introduction and a link to your blog.

If you want to participate, here are the rules:

  • Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog...
  • Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself...
  • Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs...
  • Let each person know that they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
