Calli, I answered the wine question in your LJ, but -- Cline zinfandel (I hope I don't need to add that it's a red zinfandel, not the pink abomination), or a fruity beaujolais.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm bummed, too bummed to do my next post in Sang Sacre.
This makes me feel low, low, low. A brilliantly witty, intelligent dog-adopting tulip-growing man who would build his kids a spaceship with his own bare hands shouldn't be sitting at his desk two days before Christmas too bummed out for Sang Sacre. He should be up to his armpits in well-wishes, swimming in all kinds of goodness and happiness and security.
If I ran the world, I'd start with that. Everything else could sort itself out from there.

Tommyrot says hi from the UIC hospital where they are currently pouring dye into his eye. Or possibly his brain, I'm not sure. Anway, hi!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Yay for bathing-suit-recovery!!!!!!!!!
Boo for dye in the eye, or brain. But, hopefully they'll be able to help him in the long run.

Thanks, Steph. There's a beaujolais that I like, even if I can't remember the name off hand (I'll know it when I see it in the store). I may go with that. It's worked well with salmon, which is also on the salty-sweet side of the meat spectrum.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Hey, you know, maybe I can start an internet business as a troll hitman. I'll be like the Professional. I'll study the troll, find the weakness, and with surgical precision, perform a trollectomy from your beloved forum.

Nah, start with Daniel. I'll be okay, I thought my wife was going to be really mad about something that I couldn't control, but she's not. OTOH, the kids are sick, so the day isn't great but not as bad as I thought. Plus, I slipped out and took care of my last bit of Christmas shopping.
