So I finally did a few of the things on my list with respect to the church. For one, I committed myself to becoming a member which means I will there the next four Thursday nights for a series of classes. For two, I finally signed up for PAR, donating a bit each month (just fifteen bucks, but then again I have an annual income of less than three grand at the moment), seeing as I do get a lot out of the church and it's programming.
After the "Taste" portion of the "Come-Taste-See" series which I may discuss more after the series is complete, I went home and began my homework. First up was a powerpoint presentation on effective communication which took perhaps half an hour to finish up. Then came tackling a whole bunch of Auto-CAD work. Anyone who knows me can tell you that I hate this part of my program. I am a more theoretical-type. I like big pictures, and textual analysis, and anything involving thought and analysis. Sitting down to move columns and walls on a blueprint 25 centimetres East, and 150 centimetres south, then realigning walls, fixtures and spandrel beams to match? Well, I needed some motivation.
My recipe for a really tasty, very dirty martini...
1.5 ounces good quality English gin (I tend to like Tanqueray, but currently have Beefeater)
0.5 ounces Dry Martini Vermouth
3 large Spanish Queen olives
A really good glug of juice from the olive jar
You have to pre-chill the glass (just toss some ice and water in while you mix the drink). Toss the liquid ingredients in a martini shaker with a few ice cubes and go to town shaking it. Toss the ice and water out of the glass and place olives in bottom. Strain drink over olives. Sit down to plug out a few hours of AutoCAD (well, if you are me, otherwise just enjoy.) Do not under any circumstances drive for at least a few hours, especially if like me, you have the alcohol tolerance of a gnat.
