Government work is a definite possibility. I figure that as I take classes, I'll get a better idea of what's out there and narrow it down from there.

Also, I googled this "chilango margarita" and... Oh my. I'll have to give that a try. The best drink I've ever had was at Melt in Cleveland. It was this concoction with grapefruit and vodka and something else... but it had crushed basil in it. It was amazing. I tried to recreate it at home and failed.

I just googled Melt and the grilled cheese menu has me drooling! That cocktail isn't on their menu.... It requires further research....

Wow. You've done your research! The drink was a special the day we were there... Figures.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's closest to the second recipe there. The only thing that I think must be different is the amount of grapefruit juice because it was just a hint of grapefruit - not strong at all. Not sure if there was another mixer in there to calm it down or what...
 
Ok, 10 random things about me.

1. I'm American, but my heritage is European mutt. A joke amongst my family and friends is I'm a Commie Nazi Jew. I can trace ancestors to Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Germany, Poland, Hungary, the former Czechoslovakia, and Scotland. The town I was born in was heavily "slavic". Nearly everyone's last name ended in -ski, -sky, -ich or -ick.

2. I first had sex with a guy at 13 (my best friend), and a girl at 16 (wanted to see what the guys were raving about.) I came out as bi at 15 and gay at 19, 1 month before I was to be married. Needless to say she was not too happy. But we are great friends to this day.

3. I recently quit smoking cigarettes by switching to an ecig.

4. I've been single and celibate since May of 2006 by choice. Last ex did me over pretty bad and it wasn't till the last year that I felt ready to try dating again.

5. I'm hopelessly in love with my bisexual best friend. He has a GF and is 11 years my junior.

6. I use and support legalizing medical marijuana. I was born a day late... 4/21

7. I love football and hockey. Go Bills, Ravens, Eagles, and Flyers. and Cindy Crosby is a crybaby bitch.

8. If I ever won Powerball or MegaMillions for a BIG amount, I would buy a tropical island, build a house and farm on it, and say screw you to civilization, minus my friends/family who might want to come live or visit.

9. Despite becoming bitter and a bit jaded over the years, I'm still a hopeless romantic and believe my soulmate is out there somewhere.

10. I'm an excellent chef and potions master(mixologist), although I've had no formal training in either, unless you count the food network and bartending for 2 years at an Applebees.
 
Lasher, your 10 Randoms are great. You are such an interesting person, you will fit iin so well, with our little disfunctional family.

Congratulations on quiting smoking.

I hope some of our other new posters will post their 10 Random's as well.:thumbup1:
