The only thing keeping me from adding a bottle of champagne to my grocery list is my absolute unshakeable conviction that preparing to celebrate a victory dooms you to an eleventh-hour defeat.

but what if you add 4 bottles of champers?

Honestly if you have to do a supply run to get proper celebration materials, that's going to be one of the best shopping trips ever.

Everyone hyping themselves up for what honestly probably ISN’T the big event is just looking to make themselves upset and sad for No Raisin. Even if they’re lying and just saying they’re doing it for fun. Save it for when it actually happens!

But just think of how much fun it will be to rush out and grab it when everyone else does. Party at the grocery store 🤣

And this is why I just keep the good stuff on hand whether there's something to celebrate or not. Maybe there will be, and it'll be sudden and unexpected.

One of my favorite stickers on my Grandmother's desk is: "Life is short, drink the good wine now." She's sadly given up drinking due to blood pressure and being close to 94 now. But it's a great point to not waste an opportunity to take small joys in life. 😅

in a similar but different vein, i’m also very “if i’m going to drink, it will be something worth drinking” i’m not huge on drinking alcohol, so i only really drink things that are enjoyable

This seems like the move, to be sure.

it’s one of those things where, i originally bought a bottle like 5 years ago, just because of the vibes, then it was also actually pleasant, so i’ve wound up buying three or four cases over the years? i always have some on hand, often bring them to friends’ parties, etc etc.

Until it’s on ice you’re not preparing… just planning for contingencies.

I've been spending the day doing things I'd know him and the GOP hate, so that no matter what happens, I've had fun and been petty.
