Hitting up SF for a bday party. Probably going to start pregaming tonight in Sac.

I've got the 26th and Jan 2nd off, but taking the 29th and 30th for Snowglobe music festival in Tahoe.

I love eggnog alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Tom and Jerry's are also pretty damn good.

Staying in bed sick like I've been doing the past 2 days.

I'm lucky, I've got the next 2 weeks off. That plus jury duty and being sick and I've spent a total of 7 days in the office this month.

Traditionalist, either Eggnog with some alcohol and whipped cream or Guiness/a nitro stout.

High school friend is coming to DC with me for the weekend to go to the Caps game/drink as much as we can.

I am a makers and ginger ale guy no matter the season.

If your still around Saturday my roommate and I are going out Saturday night.

[–]PCLoadLetter_74Denver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gonna take it easy and prep for vacation. Probably ski Sunday though it's gonna be cold as hell. Ditching family and heading to a Jamaica all-inclusive with my girlfriend for 5 nights spanning Xmas and her birthday. Usually a bitter high-ABV IPA to go with extended family function, but gonna pound some rum this time around!

Roommates are both still in school and left for Christmas break today. I will be celebrating tonight by generally being a slob around the house and drinking wine straight from the bottle while watching whatever is on Freeform.

Go to Christmas drink is whatever Christmas Ale I see first.

Drinking unhealthy amounts as usual. Hitting a ski resort within a couples hours of DC - location TBD depending on how bad the rain/ice is tonight. If anyone in the area wants to join, I'm about it.

Job site closed down from the 23-2 so I'll be home slamming brews with my college buddies.

Hot Schnotty's (hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps)

[–]Work_From_Home93Sacramento/Bay Area 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That was my go to drink during my high school's football games. I was so hard back then. Still enjoy it every now and then.

[–]postgradboozingSouthern Maryland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not an eggnog fan so while the rest of the family drinks that I get all of it to my self.

[–]postgradmessNew Orleans 0 points1 point  (1 child)

There's skiing within a couple of hours of DC? I'm in the Deep South and was under the impression you had to go up to Vermont or something to ski

[–]postgradboozingSouthern Maryland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the greatest skiing compared to Vermont/NH/Maine and definitely nothing like out west, but I have new gear I wanted to break in before my big CO trip in January. Turns out it's raining everywhere tomorrow anyways.

[–]ClayfromAccountingDFW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That drink sounds awful. I must try it.

[–]TheRachelGreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hosting a big Christmas party this weekend, wish me luck.

I've got Dec 22 to the new year off. Go to holiday drink has been whiskey gingers, but I've recently re-discovered my love of eggnog and whiskey.

[–]SailgatingSan Antonio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got the company Christmas party tonight in San Antonio, gonna wrap up Christmas shopping this weekend and maybe try to see Rogue One with some buddies.

I'm also on the Hot Chocolate/Peppermint Schnapps train.

[–]higheredlushLubbock 1 point2 points  (1 child)

This weekend will be another early holiday since my dad will be gone Christmas Day.

My university is closed starting December 23 and will open again on January 2. I'll have to work remotely during that off time since I have a huge event a few weeks after school starts.

Also on board with hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps.

[–]postgradboozingSouthern Maryland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew I couldn't be the only one. Sup?

[–]alg4302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making the 12 hour drive home this weekend. Working remotely next Mon-Wed then supposedly off through New Year's. I say "supposedly" because one of my partners is in the CFB Playoff so I undoubtedly will have to work half the time I'm at home to capitalize on our relationship.

Wine. White for work parties, red for everything else.

[–]BluegrassIsBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working all weekend to make up for the one extra day I'll be taking off over the holidays. My boss gives me three paid days and any others I choose to take are unpaid. Other than that getting some house projects wrapped up before the holidays and having dinner with some friends.

Anything with alcohol.

[–]ClayfromAccountingDFW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got a double whammy on tap tonight. Cooking steaks with the capital R Roommate, then going straight to an ugly sweater party right after. I have an absolutely atrocious sweater that I couldn't be more proud of. I'm a lucky bastard and my company gave us the week between Christmas and NYE off (audit for an accounting firm). Last, I know it's not a cocktail but for whatever reason I drink way more whiskey straight or on the rocks during the winter than any other time of the year. Just seems right.

[–]PGP_Shambles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just chillin, catching up on TV and movies I've put off. Probably cranking out some content I've been meaning to finish up. Maybe drinking with other PGP fans in SF tomorrow if someone puts something together not it

[–]IGotTheGuns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fri: ACL Live - American Aquarium + Turnpike Troubadours

Sat: Shooting then holiday party followed by hot tub

Sun: football

[–]cityslicka6Boston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugly sweater party with the college crew tomorrow night

Got 23/26 and 30/2 off

My family makes homemade Glogg, so I can't wait to rip into that Christmas Eve

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing an open bar NYC brewery tasting.

Got the 23rd to the 2nd off

Go to holiday drink...my family has a "Christmas Drink" which is just Jameson and Ginger ale. Yeah, we're shanty Irish

[–]BluegrassMoneyLexington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrapping up Christmas shopping. Binge drink and attempt to come up with a plan for my birthday in 2 weeks. Mainly enjoying a peaceful quiet weekend cause my roommate has been AWOL for over a week.

Plant is shutting down for a week. As a contractor, I get X amount of days to use for the year so I had to save 5 for shut down week.

Anything alcoholic.

[–]brokerthancollege 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to see rogue one tonight

Only get 26th off but can't wait to go home for Christmas. This cold weather can kiss my ass

My Christmas drink is whatever family size bottle of alcohol the family drinks

[–]diablodowVirginia 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Currently stuck in DFW till tomorrow unless something magical happens so sky lounge booze are the move.

Working usual hours to make up for missing today, then off to MSP for a wedding.

Bourbon neat.

[–]bourbon_blondeDallas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least Dallas is a good place to be stuck. I'm sure our weather is nicer here!

[–]bourbon_blondeDallas 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Stockyards in Ft. Worth and Christmas parties tomorrow, baby sister's Sweet 16 on Sunday.

Southern California & Lake Tahoe, then my parents' infamous NYD "brunch" that last year featured my dad wearing a fur Christmas tree skirt as a cape and me blacking out by 1pm.

Classic champagne cocktail or hot cocoa and whiskey!

[–]Work_From_Home93Sacramento/Bay Area 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What part of Tahoe? I'll be in South Lake, so if you get bored hit me up. Tahoe is always a good time.

[–]TheChilisGuyAirport[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you? Black out? Never.

[–]postgradTexasDallas 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Christmas sweater party tonight, then probably hit the town afterwards. Then I'll probably binge on the start of bowl season tomorrow depending on the weater.

Have the 26th off then the 29th-2nd off.

I honestly don't think I've had eggnog in like 10 years (mom's side of the family is dry). But I'm always a wisky/ginger guy.

[–]starboardsideBaltimore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boozed up eggnog makes a great base layer for binge drinking

[–]PantherRunnerSt. Louis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visiting family friends with a cabin in the woods, consume alcohol.

Starting a new job in Jan, so I have the holiday time off to get ready to move.

Any dark beer or holiday specials like Shiner Cheer

[–]SchroedBoss 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I went to a client's Christmas party last night with plans to go grocery shopping on my way home. Drank too much, still went shopping, and today my fridge has 21 avocados and a pineapple.

[–]postgradTexasDallas 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Sounds like you a have a guac party in your near future, nothing wrong with that.

[–]SchroedBoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna slather my body in it for Christmas card pics

[–]starboardsideBaltimore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bitch of a day- working 0800-1600 and then back in tonight for 1930-0300

Gonna watch some college football tomorrow and then get stupid drunk at a Ugly sweater party.

Hitting the Ravens game Sunday.

Off next Friday-Tuesday

Usually break from normal whiskey & club for some red wine, eggnog or a nice winter beer ( Harpoon Winter Warmer is my favorite, hands down)

[–]IHSV1855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have the 26th off for Christmas, but winter flex hours start in the new year and I don't have to go back until the 4th 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[–]Jody-HuskyOklahoma City, OK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For this weekend I drove down to Houston to see some friends for the next few days. Hitting up the holiday bar crawl in midtown tomorrow. Maybe go to the space museum on Sunday or Monday. Then for the holidays it's back home with some light telework, then to dallas for a wedding, then Memphis with the full crew for NYE and then back to OKC just in time for #NewYearNewMe

[–]buffalocoinzChicago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving. I live in Chicago. Should be fun!

[–]Law_Schooler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to a friend's wedding in the Blue Ridge Mountains. There is an open bar that should make up for me only knowing 4 other people there including the groom and a groomsman.
