I wish there was a way to tell if people were subscribed to a thread you were writing in, or maybe comment without interrupting the flow of a story.
 
Yawns as she walks in, blanket wrapped tight around er, and lazily makes he way to an empty couch.

Why must I wake up?
 
That was a big saying of mine before grad school.



Go back to bed!
I can't. I have to put clothes on and turn in my dumb calc homework.

Grumbles.

Although, I have to get up at 8 or 9 tomorrow, so getting up is probably not the worst idea ever...
 
Sorry, just in a Fitzgerald mood. I would exist on bourbon if it were possible.

Existing on bourbon would be a shame.

Because then, you'd be missing out on wine, and a good wine is perhaps my favorite of all alcoholic drinks. But, I think I remember you saying that wine gives you nasty headaches, yes?

stirs from under the blankets

Amen.

A superb glass of wine cures all ills in my world.

Yep. Awful, horrible headaches--pretty much right after the first sip. I can still appreciate wine and cook with it, I just don't drink it anymore.

Well, I drink Champagne on New Year's and say fuck the consequences. But I think Champagne gives everyone headaches. Also, who knew Champagne is supposed to be capitalized? What a snobby drink.

Right after the first sip. Now that is truly, deeply tragic.

You do know why it's capitalized, right? Because the only true "Champagne" comes from the Champagne region of France. Which is very pretty, by the way.

That's because true Champagne comes from a region in France, and anything that is made outside of that area isn't allowed to actually be referred to as Champagne.

And what sort of wine do you favor, V?

Red, I'm thinking. Something lush...Bordeaux, perhaps?

chuckles softly

I think perhaps your opinion of me is a little too high, I love my whites. I am a sucker for a Sauv Blanc from New Zealand, specifically because they are both dry and sweet.

Drinking wine, I've found is a little like going on a journey. You absolutely must take your time and savor each little sip. There may be a connection between my love of wine and my love for an excellently brewed cup of tea.

Sure, I knew that. I guess I just thought it had morphed into a colloquialism.

And Sir Cat, it didn't used to be that way. It's only been in the last year or two that I've developed those headaches. So, blah.

Ahh, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. They can be very good - citrusy, grassy, but with a nice rocky undertone. Or, they can be like drinking a grapefruit rind twisted into a wine cooler, if you get a poorly-done one.

So many things are like that, really, but wine in particular. Plus, the flavor changes as it breathes, so if you rush through it, you'll really miss out.

Alright, Mr. Petite.. what is going on with all the drinking? Why?

And what is that Lily?

I linked it. They're Jewish pastries that are made on Purim. Purim was last weekend, but we still want to make the, because that are delicious.
