This is Vodka!
ell, 00:05h
Today I was visited by an old friend I already know from kindergarden times and it ended in a pub.
Well, ultimately it ended with me sitting at a bus stop with rain-wet pants after bringing her to the train station, but before that we were in the Irish Pixie where there were so many people that we sat down at a table were a few guys were already sitting. We shared a cider and I had an Irish Flag, a drink consisting of something green on top of something white on top of something clear orange which I suspect to be mint liquor, baileys and rum, but I'm not quite sure.
For some reason there was a bottle of Vodka on the table that must have been there already when the guys sat down, because no one knew, where it actually came from. And soon enough we also had an empty shot-glas from the Irish Flag, which, as you might think, wasn't empty for long, because at some point someone had the idea of filling it with Vodka and offering it to me.
After I declined with the reason that we didn't know what exactly was in that bottle, we started a game of passing that glass around, because actually no one wanted to drink it and offering shots of vodka to people passing by, who for some reason all took it. We rejoiced over every one who drunk a glass, but all I could think about was: "This is Vodka!" and "'Twas invented by a little old lady in Leningrad." (Although the Vodka itself was actually imported from Moscow, according to the bottle.)

I know that headline xD
If that's teh case, I refuse the Irish Flag after all. MyLord may have convinced me to vodka, but stuff like Baileys and mint liquor will always remain an undiscovered country for me ^^

Wow, that's strange...
Baileys was actually the first alcoholic beverage that someone forced on me that I liked. And besides: I don't really know if it IS what I THINK it is.
Appart from that: I believe at some point you'll have to cross that threashold and if it is your final fronteir ^^
