Happy Birthday
To blogger Tim at My Money Forest. Ah, to be a mere 26 again…
Speaking of being younger, seeing the abbreviation MMF reminds me of the days when we’d all go to Applebee’s periodically after work, or have going away parties there for departing colleagues. In the early days, the usual bartender was a young woman named Jody. I was introduced to a drink that was a specialty of hers, best ordered when she was there because nobody else could make it half as well. It was called a Mongolian Motherfucker, or MMF for short. It amused the waitresses sometimes to make me ask for it by its full name, rather than its initials. It was delicious, but very strong, based on Midori, with whatever the blue stuff is called, a couple other alcohols, and I think a bit of sour mix as the only thing that wasn’t alcohol in it. My alternate drink of choice at the time was their amazing frozen mudslides, better than I have had anywhere else, and probably about 1500 calories each. Somewhere among my non-digital pictures I have one of our bartender buddy sitting on the lap of one of my colleagues. Those were the days.

To my stepsister, Laurie, who is 41 today. For some reason that seems weirder than my being 45, or my sister being 49.
