Tequila Mockingbird
 
To preface this, I got an e-mail from some co-workers:

Quote:

Hi all! It's been discussed among the girls who have enjoyed the 'girls nights' so much, that we should have a monthly 'get together' including all staff. The idea of a "Book Club" was brought up, and I'm all for it, so I'm throwing it out there to the rest of you! Basically, the 2nd payday of each month we will have a location where we can all meet and relax. That's mostly the club part. The book part, is that we'll be discussing/enjoying various topics, relating to literature. For example, our first meeting will cover Tequila-Mockingbird.
Now, I'm not into 'Girls Night Out' or any of that shit, but I was curious about the book. So, I googled it expecting some 'Desperate Housewife' blech or something. What I found was this gem: http://tequilamockingbird.blogspot.com/

I was hesitant at first while reading the front page, but I found it to be hilarious. Basically, a group of friends got together and wrote a story. One would start it then pass it to the next person who would continue and then pass it and so on. It's so random and overly vulgar and violent, at least more so than it needed to be, that it's funny.

BEST PART...the ladies weren't talking about this at all. In fact, one of them came to me today laughing about another woman trying to find the book that "doesn't exist". She was calling her an idiot because they're discussing To Kill a Mockingbird, but since it's over cocktails it Tequila Mockingbird.

Bummer, I thought they might actually be interesting to talk to. Although I'm considering going to discuss this blog and watch their reactions. :devious:

The rest of the site is fun to read. It reminds me of the Laurie Notaro series which I love.

Start your own book club, and talk about that book :D

I'm from phoenix and at least half as cool as you are, so there's gotta be at least 1 other person who'd join it :)

(Although I'm considering going to discuss this blog and watch their reactions. )



What do you think their reactions would be to discussing this blog?
From working with them , do you think they would let their hair down and be open to it, or would they think that you had stepped off the deep end?

I found the site enjoyable reading, very entertaining.

heh, we disagree on many things. I shock them with what I bring for lunch (a spinach wrap). :lol: Also, my use of 'damn' and 'fuck' throw them into shock. I should use the friendly GD and BFD variations. ;)

I often thought I judged them too quick. So I test-drive the conversations to get a feel before diving in. This site didn't pass the test-drive.

Monkie, you took the cool with you and I alone can't bring it back. :p

That is too funny. Nothing worse than working with a bunch of prudes. Course with my sadistic warped sense of humor, I would keep MYSELF (if no one else) entertained on a regular basis. Just to watch them having a coronary over something you said, while you calmly ate your spinich wrap...lol
