The theme was "Have one character make another character a mixtape." Here's Roger's for Simon.
( You're a bloody cad, Simon Templar )

Oh the things we say at work.

"I've got a credit card call for you. And I'm sorry, I called you a girl."
"Huh?"
"I usually try to call you all ladies. They're going to think we're all 15, 16-year-old girls - except me, of course. I have the manly-man voice."
"Oh, you so do. The testosterone emanating from your cubicle threatens to overwhelm me on a regular basis."
"I have that effect on people. As I'm walking down the hallway, it's just coming off me in waves, spurting everywhere - "
"OK, you've just crossed a line. I don't really need to hear about when and where you're spurting - "
" - getting all over the filing cabinets, people - "
"Maybe you'd just better transfer that call now."

Operation Bathtub Gin complete!
Aug. 24th, 2007 09:16 pmOne empty Martini & Rossi Vermouth bottle
Approx. 1/3 of a fifth of Smirnoff
One empty teabag
Some dried, pulverized juniper berries
Juniper goes in teabag. Teabag goes in bottle. Vodka goes in bottle. Let sit for a while. Taste it until it tastes good.
Dried juniper berries have a spicier taste than the fresh ones used in real gin, so it has a bit of a peppery kick after it goes down. I like it.
For the wedding I want to buy an actual bathtub, one of those footy deals, and make some more of this in there, with $5 vodka. (Have I mentioned in these pages the plan to have the wedding be set in the very early 1930s, with the reception in a basement done to be a speakeasy, and when Justin and I are ready to run out and hop the train to NYC, we'll give a prearranged signal to his brother, who will lead a group of "G-men" in to "raid the speak" and arrest Justin and I and trundle us into the back of a Model A to carry us down to the [train] station? Because that will be the best wedding EVER.)
