Titillating Tuesday - Red Wine

29 01 2008

I am very rapidly becoming a firm believer in red wine being the answer to all things negative. Does this mean I am an alcoholic? Hell no! Alcoholics go to meetings! There is nothing quite like extracting yourself from reality for a while, go to your quiet place, cut up some nice cheese (Edam in my case) and open a good bottle of Montenegron Vranac. Then find the largest glass ever created, fill it, empty it, fill it again and sip through it while watching some relatively uninspiring movie that doesn’t require too much concentration. Repeat the above steps until a/ You run out of wine or b/ You pass out. I can’t recall which one I did.

Yesterday was a bit of a nightmare. Today is much better.

UB40 said it best:

Red red wine, you make me feel so fine
You keep me rockin’ all of the time
Red red wine, you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollar when you’re just in my hand
Red red wine, you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go, it make me feel bad
Red red wine, you make me feel so fine
Monkey back and ease up on the sweet deadline
