Mourning My Loss...

I'm sorry to have to inform everyone that my beloved beer mug broke last night. 🙁
He was with me for almost 25 years. It was love at first sip, and this hefty glass beaut, pint sized but larger than life, somehow followed me home from a pub at Heathrow International Airport and has been with me ever since....until I killed him last night. :brokenheart:
Life goes on in the household this morning, my family oblivious to my pain. Shall I replace my fallen companion, or shall I, gulp, resign myself to drinking my pilsner out of a SpongeBob plastic cup with a curly straw? 🙁

Break a $60 Waterford martini glass, then you'll get some sympathy from me. I've broken a few of them. 🙁


You get sympathy from me for being suckered into buying a $60 glass.

They were a gift from my Mother-In-Law. I really need to pony up and buy a couple more though. I stopped drinking out of them regularly. In fact, I stopped drinking martinis regularly.

I don't mind spending money on stuff like that though.

Edit-Funny thing is I never break the cheap glass ones...go figure. :roll:
 
I had a Coke glass like that. Had it for over a decade---it was a fixture on my desk. One day I'm cleaning it and it shatters in my hands.

I have a big A&W mug now, but it's just not the same. *sigh*

Hmmm....care to buy an old friend a new Waterford mug??

I'm not sure if they make mugs. If they do they probably aren't anywhere near as expensive as their stemware though...Old friend. 🙂

I'll PM you my address, Jules ol' buddy. In the meantime, feel free to peruse here, and here for the proper replacement.
