2046poly dinner tonight

So the poly gang went to Tuscany Market & Vineyard
tonight (sent you the website a while back) and I
checked out their tasting room--it is COOL. No Texas,
though. Which may be fixed when they expand in the
future. I met their Wine Guru, who has a very cute
name like Jeffrey or Timothy...something a little
British girl would name a stuffed bunny. He is so
smart & adorable. We had a great time chatting (for
like an hour!)

The polys were lame so I didn't feel too bad about
skipping out on them. But I was kind of in a 'blah'
mood when I arrived and I think my mood rubbed off on
the whole group. I dunno, maybe that's giving myself
too much credit. But I know my Uncle Bubba can do
this, I've seen it, so maybe I inherited his 'gift' of
reverse empathy, or whatever it is.

Anyway, it was a nice night. I can't wait to end my
self-imposed month of sobriety and go back there and
get my 'tasting card'. I'm thinking April First. I'll
take my Reidel tasting glass & go to town!! They had a
Silver Oak something-or-another for $105 a bottle, and
it was $5 a taste. I'll definitely give that one a go.

Jeffrey/Timothy says eventually there will be a
computer system tied to your tasting card that keeps
track of what you taste and lets you input a rating
for everything you try. cool!

We were sitting in the cafe area. I got up to go check out the
tasting room, and in the grocery/deli area, there were these
identical blonde boys (somewhere between 4-8 years old, honestly I
can't really tell kids' ages) and they were pounding on one of those
small, portable ATM machines, screaming and shrieking, encouraging
each other to make it beep and whatnot. I walked through the entry
way, saw them acting like little crackmonkeys, and said "ACK! It's
the Villagers of the Damned!"

I immediately felt red-hot daggers in the side of my head, turned to
look and there was the tow-headed piece of beef jerky from whose
loins these demons obviously sprang, GLARING at me.

I just grinned and kept moving. Just callin' 'em like I see 'em,
lady. Maybe you should spend less time in the tanning booth and more
time being a Parent. Ya think?
