wednesday wine

hi all.

so emily's event of the week = wine tasting.
it just happened. so i thought eh? why not do a little blog-ity blogging.
i tried allllll 6 of the wines that were there. a sparkling, a white, & 4 reds (why the hell didn't i take a picture of the bottles? kicking myself)
did you know, before tonight, i didn't think i liked reds. did you know, i was wrong. i like reds & whites; my life could be complete at this moment.

so i didn't take as many pictures as i had hoped, but i had a lovely time. i felt quite glamourous in my cincinnati (except we were right on the river in kentucky).

red + rooftop pool + the city = can i have this every week?

other than that though i'm dealing with my roommates---okay i tried to deal with them last night---and i looked into my options of moving into another unit for a couple months but i don't want to have to do that. the plan is that the next time i talk to them face to face i lay down the law (so to speak). [ps the gist is that my roommates love to party & be loud & leave the apartment a mess, i don't, i've kind of let it go for the last 6 months and now i'm the only one in summer classes & i'm done letting it go. [twitter explains more]

not the most photogenic of appetizers. i am a fan of everything on the inside. nottttt a bacon fan, but my mom found it necessary that i try it & try it i did. not the end of world.

dinner tonight : wine + a bacon wrapped dried apricot & date stuffed with pistachios. woahhhhh.



Lalala well tomorrow i have class at 6PM! omg it is 6-9:30PM. i'm kind of scared, but i know i'll live.

do you like wine? i think i've expressed my feelings :)

this just in: good eats is on! all about toast, i like toast. probably my favorite food network show for real.

wine-ing

thanks for sharing your objects of comfort, i shall be stealing them all and testing them for myself.

i'm a sensitive person. i internalize my reactions most of the time. it takes a toll on me. i am able to turn every misfortune onto myself and accept the responsibility. this responsibility can serve me well, i can get shit done. but it also hurts.
i refuse to make this blog a pity party. it's not going to be rainbows and butterflies either, that's just not me. i'm just here to offer my perspective, however mainstream or abstract it may be.






ever done something out of the ordinary?
yesterday i ditched my meaningless responsibilities, trotted back to my apartment, and joined the party that is constantly bustling in my living space.

did i grab the nasty natty light they wanted to shove down my throat? hell no. i took out my birthday wine [whole food's $5 quail creek chardonnay] uncorked it and poured myself a glass, in my starfish tervis cup, no less [note to self: buy a wine glass].
then i sucked it up on a card game, finished my glass and poured myself another.
hott damn--i didn't die. i did however have the balls to yell at the dumb girl who broke my salad dressing cap.
no i didn't "party" all night long. all the kids left to stumble to better house parties and i put my butt in bed.

maybe i'll live my life this way.

wonderfully ideal.

one of the many things i want to do with my life is a wine tasting, especially at whole foods. at the moment i love white wines, i have yet to graduate onto reds, but one day i'll be sophisticated enough for them ;)
