Today was a difficult day. I’m not looking for pity here, it was just emotionally trying. Anyway, I got home this evening and needed to do some laundry, make a few more videos for tomorrow’s conferences, and of course – watch House. The commercials were a flurry of dirty clothes, DVD’s, emptying trash cans, and getting some wine to drink. I had a headache, since I didn’t drink any caffeine in the afternoon, but 8 p.m. is too late to drink a Pepsi. So, I had a little wine – straight from the box. Target has their individual servings on the shelf again! They’re sold in the cutest little four-pack, and usually I’m well-mannered enough to pour it into a glass, but not tonight. Nope, pop the top off and drink it straight. At least I didn’t use a straw! I’ve got some semblance of class.
A juice box full of wine? Haha! Just don’t take them to work. It could be disastrous! What if somebody got into them? And I’m not talking about the kids. *cough*Annette*cough*
Can I help you clear your throat? Maybe a good swift smack on the back?
I think you got a headache from ham.
Karla, isn’t it 4:01 where you are? What in the world are you doing up?
No that’s right, it was 5:01 here. At 4:01 I was only thinking about getting up. I had thought about it enough by 4:30.
In our socialist state of Maryland (the state that began Prohibition), we have to buy through state-run stores. So we can just forget bargains like you guys get at Target or Sam’s.
*Sigh* Enjoy your cute little boxed wine…
I love the little individual serving! Does anyone in MD know if you can buy these at a liquor store? I have a headache.
Your cute little four-pack is nice, but I chose to get four REGULAR size bottles of merlot-cabernet last night. 🙂 I didn’t pop a cork last night, but it’s sure nice to know it’s handy in an emergency.
I’m quite jealous of your Target. No wine here at our Targets, but I did manage to snag a few sweaters the other night!
Pop a cork!?! What a big spender. If memory serves me correctly, (HUSH BRAD!), these are mylar pull-tabs. Otherwise I’m pretty sure the standard wine purchases are screw tops!
Or ‘casks’, as we like to call wine-in-a-box.
Annette -- seriously! I’m a Lutheran school teacher! I get the cheapest corked wine I can. Those four bottles will last me a while. I only drink wine when we have pasta…or fish…or stuff on the grill…or…
Michele-the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.
I think we’d get along just fine Michelle!
