An Important Decision

I've made an important decision. I am declaring, from now on, Fridays to be now known as "Margarita Fridays." You are allowed, in addition to dressing casually, to have Margaritas on Fridays.

Let's keep it reasonable-- none before, say, 8 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Be sure to share. And if the boss gives you a hard time, tell him or her it's okay-- Johnny Yen said it's all right.

  1. Is this going to turn into a National Month thing? I hope so!

    Can I substitute Coors Lite?

  3. Aren't Margaritas for breakfast? There's lots of vitamin c in them, right? I don't understand why there would be a problem. But I'll let them know, you said it was fine.

  4. Juanny Yen. The CPS frowns upon that sort of behavior.

  5. If anybody gives you a problem for drinking before noon, do what I usually do - tell them it quiets the voices in my head that tell me to go get the belt-fed weapon.

  8. Johnny Yen, Margarita Friday has been done for years, but it is on Mondays.
    It goes:
    Bloody Mary Sunday
    Margarita Monday
    Tequila Popper Tuesdays
    Hot Toddy Thursday
    Cosmo Friday
    Wild Card Saturday.

  12. I definitely have Margarita Fridays every Friday. Usually there's a Margarita Wednesday or Thursday twice a month, and then you know... sometimes even a Margarita Monday!

  13. As soon as summer begins, I'll take Fridays off (and a few Mondays as well), so I'll probably have a few cocktails of my own. Preferably whiskey & water, and at eleven-ish.

  14. Fridays sound good for me, because they keep yelling at me when I do it at church on Sundays.

    The response has been so good that I'm declaring it all year round!

    Deadspot-
    Everyone's got something they're good at...

    Flannery-
    They're not just for breakfast anymore!

    Lu-
    That's even more reason to do it.

    Skyler's Dad-
    Like my button says, "I'm just doing what the voices tell me to."

    Grant-
    Your stamina is impressive!

    Bubs-
    Then we truly shall suceed!

    Valerie-
    I knew I could count on you!

    Kim-
    Now I understand why your boss keeps calling me asking me why you're passed out at your desk everyday.

    Beth-
    Exactly! You have to pace yourself.

    TA-
    That was a fine institution that I think we need to bring back! See you Monday or Tuesday!

    Busterp-
    Not to worry-- we are duty-free at the Casa de Yen.

    Kristi-
    Didn't you post a margarita recipe recently? Can you make a couple of them and fax them to me? The margaritas, that is.

    JR-
    I'm a big fan of bourbon and water, but I've promised to take it easy on the bourbon until I get my son off to college. And that's only four years, 5 months, 2 days, 3 hours 24 minutes and 19 seconds away... but hey, who's counting?

    Mob-
    Tell them I said that was okay too. I mean, if you can't drink in church, where can you drink?

    Anon. Blogger-
    That's what they pay me the big bucks for. And you have my permission for a double.

    Erik-
    Right back atcha, buddy!
