I went to the post office today to pick up my b'day gift from Spaz. For those Barflies that are not in the know, Spaz is one of my soul mates. We've known each other for at least 25 years now. There is a new and DANGEROUS store that has opened up less than a 1/4 mile from her home. It is an Irish store, nay Barflies.......a HUGE Irish store filled with imported goodies. What store will Maeve have to avoid with a visa next time she goes home?
The Twisted Shamrock barflies......*shuddering with delight*
She got me the most awe inspireing hand crafted box. It is Connameara ponies and Celtic knots all over and what shall I put in the box you ask barflies? I'm glad you asked. Spaz wrote a toast and I will keep it in that box. To go with the toast, she sent me 4 rock glasses with some of my favorite Irish sayings on them. My absolute fav? "May ye be in heaven a full half hour before the devil knows ye dead".
Yes, I will be drinking out of that glass this sat. Oh, and the toast? here it is:

"We could not be there (lissie and spaz) in body, but most definitly in spirit. Pour these glasses with whiskey: One for Maeve, one for Lissie, one for Spaz and one for Bables!
Here's to the Bitches of Eastwick! Long may their sassy asses live!"

Of course since Spaz & Lissie can't be here, Babs and I will have to drink their share........bummer! LOL
