One up, One Down Steemit Networking Challenge #1

hahaha @tryskele, with this comment, I can see how you and @glenalbrethsen could have loooong conversations for hours here! But considering @paulag's request in this post, it works perfectly! I have to say though that I thoroughly enjoy talking with @glenalbrethsen here; he's always got something interesting and/or thought-provoking to say!

And yes, for your 55th birthday, why not plan a trip to Mexico so we can bring our little fantasy of winos watching street art to fruition?* haha

And Scotland hey? I've been to Italy and saw some castles (always been a huge fan), so a trip to Scotland would be pretty awesome!

I can honestly say I've never dreamed of wanting to be a wino doing anything. :) So, have at it you two. Watching street art go up would be cool even if not inebriated, so I guess you can have the wine and I'll just down some orchata or jamaica or something. :)

It's probably a good thing to get @tryskele to Mexico first before going to Scotland, since it doesn't sound like there's a return trip from there. :)

hahaha Glen, it's all talk buddy :) Although, I do enjoy a few drinks, but nothing in excess. And yes, I know, "excess" is very subjective :)

I wasn't going to say anything. :) I'm way used to being the odd man out when it comes to drinking any kind of alcoholic beverage, so no judging or subjectivity going on over here. Nope. No siree. I don't even know what it takes to become a wino. Maybe getting somewhat buzzed or tipsy as you watch a mural going up in Playa del Carmen will do it. I don't know. :) Maybe you have to sit there for days afterward until you realize it's finished and you probably should figure out where home is. See, it could be all over the place as far as I'm concerned.

Spoken like a non-drinker :) Have you ever indulged?

Nope. Not yet anyway. :)

There was a time 25 years ago where I was having a bad day (someone had just stolen a new mountain bike off the back porch of our part of a triplex), where I told a co-worker and friend who was visiting that if there were ever time to start drinking (there were many other things going on—the bike was the last straw), now was it. I even told him I was going to get a beer. A root beer. :)

haha a root beer! That's cute, but also smart. What a terrible time to start drinking that would have been.

You are a rarity though I think, and that's not good or bad, just "is" .

Well, I'm among a few relatively speaking, I know. It's all religion based for me, so I can't take all of the credit. I mean, I suppose I could go against that particular part, and some do, but as I said, so far, I've managed not to.

I agree, that would be the worst time to take it up, but even if it's taken up before that during a party or something that's more of a happy occasion, it's likely to carry through the unhappy scenario, too, right? Because now it's associated with happiness.

What do I know. I just watch the beer commercials with the healthy and happy coeds drinking beer and playing on the beach and wonder what my life could have been. :) just kidding. :)

hahaha that's funny! I know you're kidding, but I wonder how many kids think like that for real?

Oh if I'm doing Mexico it will be before 55 :D I technically been to Mexico, but I don't really consider Tijuana as Mexico. I've never dreamed of being a wino either, well maybe we'll have to throw in a bottle of tequila, but since we've kind of been 'joking' about it. It does seem that we can make this happen. Thats an easy trip from here, would be easier if we still lived in California. Yay more chatty ppl like me ....I LOVE IT.

I'm not a big wine drinker, and I love tequila, but it doesn't like me so much lol. Vodka for me, tequila for you, murals for us both. Seems pretty perfect if you ask me. All kidding aside, we'd love to meet you guys in person ❤️

Where do you live by the way?

@glenalbrethsen, @tyrskele and @lynncoyle1 how amazing it is to see this discussion going on, you are making a real success of this 1up 1 down challenge.

Can't speak for everyone else, but I figure if we probably should represent Asher's engagement league a little, anyway. :) Also, we wouldn't want to let you or @bashadow down for coming up with the concept and the implementation of it, right? :) Plus, it's just a great question that we all need to answer. And then hang around for the party afterwards, apparently. :)

Thanks @paulag! @glenalbrethsen and @tryskele are two peas in a pod and just "found" each other haha so they'll keep this all going no problem...with or without me 😎
