1999 cab

So, I cracked open a 1999 Cab Sauv this evening to share with a girlfriend of mine. She came over for some girl time, and I decided it was a good moment to celebrate making it through the week. It was a tough week- I've taking out some major giants...and I am glad to say that I survived.

And, I've kinda been saving that bottle for something special. Not that I haven't tried to open it in the past...I've actually planned on opening it several times, but never actually did. I think tonight was the best night! Making it through life until this absolute moment is worth celebrating! And being able to share it with a good friend- even better.

I remember getting that bottle:

It was 2002- my Senior year at UNC. I was living alone in an apartment complex in Carrboro, and had invited some people over for a dinner party. This bottle of wine was a gift from one of the guests. We had some different options that night, so this particular bottle never got opened. And has been on different shelves in different houses waiting to be opened....

...until tonight.

accountability

Funny enough, the audience is there...listening.
So, I just have to say something.

Why does anyone think I have something to say- isn't that really the funny thing?

Sadly, it is because I've said I do (have something to say)...so maybe that suggests that I am the funny component to this situation.

Hmmm...
