whisky on the rocks

i've decided that drinks are going to count as dinner for the purposes of this blog because, well frankly my range of eats is fairly small when i am preparing for just myself and i dont want to run out of things to talk about.

also drinks can count as dinner sometimes.

anyways: whisky on the rocks:

• go to scotland and have some hours to burn in edinburgh. wander around aimlessly. go into a whisky shop to look around. 
• chat with the guy working who turns out to be the owner. he is really nice and lets you sample like 10 whiskys. after each one go "hmm" and put on your best analyst face. try to say something profound, like "this one tastes like bacon"
• buy the one that tastes like bacon because it was the most interesting
• go home and check the freezer for ice. if you have some, put it in a cup. else find an ice pack or something else encrusted with ice and use a fork to try to scrape some of it off. unfortunately most of it will NOT land in the cup and also melt immediately upon touching anything. give up. 
• pour some whisky in the cup. i've heard of "two fingers of whisky" before so like i dunno maybe that much unless your cup is like really large diameter in which case less than that i guess. 
• sip. swallow. try not to make a funny face. 
• spend a few seconds mentally examining the nuances of the flavor but thoughts are interrupted by "maybe this would be better mixed with something"
• try to find coke
• try to find lemonade
• contemplate mixing with water, which people say is okay but it just sounds weird. 
• raise eyebrows, shrug, and kill the glass in a few big sips
• take drunk selfies in photobooth and enjoy the rest of your night
•
