Yesterday was the hotel expo at the casino where company's show off new products, from hand dryers, to potato chips. The Shed got a certain amount of invitations, for managers and bartenders, but one for me didn't arrive, because I have only been working behind the bar a short time. Wait. Paddy's last day was Friday. He got an invitation. Say hello to the new Paddy Mooney.
"Hello, and your surname was?"
"Umm, I think it might be on there under Mooney."
"Paddy?"
"Yes Sir!"
Me and Ashling didn't show up until about 4:45, and the expo ends at 6pm. An hour and fifteen minutes to consume as much free stuff as we can. Shots of new 'Wild Turkey Honey', Aruma, Baileys Caramel, Canadian Club and ginger beer, the new 'Miller Chill', 7 kinds of daiquiri's, Wines, Jack Daniels, Smirnoff, Skyy Vodka with Peach ice tea, no sugar Cruiser's, the list goes on.
We kept getting in trouble from security because we were holding to many drinks at a time.
Now on a less up lifting note...

Sebastian flew to Fiji on Tuesday. The group is slowly falling apart. First Matt, now Sebe, and next week Chris is leaving. We sure will miss Sebe's checkered slip on's floating around the dance floor. He, like most people we meet, plans to come to Canada on his next trip, and then you too will fall in awe of his foot apparel.

fizzy lifting drinks & vodka.
