My day was falling apart around me so I purchased a case of Mikes --Pomegranate Lemon

It hit the spot. I probably only drink this type of drink a couple of times a year. I'm more fond of dry drinks -- i.e. wine or beer. But today was spiraling rapidly out of control.

So, I ordered pizza, bought the drinks and took the kids and treats over to my friend's house where I commiserated about the trials of parenting.

By the time we left, the kids all loved each other again and I felt good enough to drive to the grocery store, on the way home, and pick up a night cap of Cap'tn Crunch cereal. (My kids eyed me strangely since we are healthy eaters here. They didn't complain however when I offered them a bowl.)

Oh well, tomorrow it's back on the wagon.

Sounds like you hit on the right remedy! I love Captain Crunch cereal too. I hope that someday I'll be able to eat it again (corn and wheat allergies).

My teeth are starting to buzz just thinking about the orange stuff...

That Pomegranate Lemon is tasty stuff...I am finding that, the more I work outdoors, the more I have "Miller time" moments. If by Miller you mean Blue Moon.
