Another Test

Today is day 11 (it's evening, actually) and I am currently enjoying a bottle of FRE Merlot. Tomorrow, my Ariel Cabernet arrives. The anticipation is killing me!

On Sunday evening, my boyfriend and I visited a local casino. It's a rather large place with many, many temptations. Gambling, indoor smoking and, of course, drinking. Instead of grabbing a glass of Cabernet, I opted for a diet coke. We poked around a few shops and he placed a couple of horse racing bets. The biggest indulgence of the evening was giving into a warm Krispy Kreme donut. While I am not proud of myself for eating the donut, I am excited about resisting the booze.

Le Test

We were invited to go to our neighbor's house last night for an evening of Hammer film fun. For those not in the know, Hammer films were the campy vampire films of the late 1960's starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Lee was usually the vampire and Cushing the Van Helsing type guy. There were all sorts of kooky themes and scenarios, but the look and feel of the pictures was pretty consistent.

Anyway, there is usually drinking in some form at these get-togethers. I was armed with a bottle of FRE and worried that I would be laughed out the door. Not the case! The dude was not drinking alcohol because he'd had too much the night before. And the chick was enjoying Shirley Temples all night. I fit right in, it seems. The movies were great, incidentally.
