lazy day martinis

Lovee and I had an awesome we're-married day... sleeping in, love {stuff}, tv {his college football}, making food together and cleaning up together, and then going out in the evening to watch the U of M game and have a drink and appetizer. Well, we went to Majors first. great place. the bar area seemed so nice and classy, was very spacey, big and beautiful. and lots of tvs. it was gopher nation time - they dominated. all in all fabulous. lovee kept saying how I was the best wife ever for today.

So, I'm not much of a drinker - rarely like the taste of the alcohol {and usually not good enough to make up for the price}. Regardless, we were going out so I ordered a martini - a barbietini or something. It was pineapple, banana, and orange flavored or something. Decent - too fruiti schmooti in a fakey way. Anyway, I kept saying how this is ok but the flavor and size isn't worth $5 - a bit of buyer's remorse you may say. Well, the bill comes, and my martini is not $5 but a whooping $8.50! WHAT??! Yes, you heard me right. For a no good, fruiti-patootey, maybe possibly barely reaching 8oz. drink. no lie. and completely unbelievable!! i can't even explain how outrageous that is... i'd definitely have soda that's 1/5 of the price and i get loads of refills! so, here's a pic of my drink.... the yellowish-pink one on the left. looks cool - the price makes it soo horribly not fun. i'm stickin to water or root beer from here on out.... so lame i could puke
