I am so happy to be in my bed. the house is a mess and not likely to get vastly better before the end of next week as I have to get in 5 hours of work a day and also have to do stuff like: get a TX DL, take mac to the new therapist, get a a mattress for mac's trundle and so uncle g can sleep on it (he gets in Thurs night, did I mention that?), register mac for school, go to celebrate my grandma's 97th b'day (whoot, go grandma!), figure out what I need to do to be a sole-proprietor in TX, negotiate an hourly rate with my job as a consultant. crash.
must go to bed, too many things. the cats are both trying to smother me. I think they are just as happy to have the bed back.
XanGo? Exactly my kind of juice, but no way in hell worth more than, maybe, $6 a bottle. As if. We had someone shilling us, and I wrangled a bottle. I feel victorious.
Seriously, I *don't* abide shitty wine, and I've developed a super-power of finding very good bottles of wine in the $10-15 range. It's not hard.
Me too.
I have a Trader Joe's across the street. And live in an area that appreciates wine. It's easy for me to find something wonderful to drink in that range or slightly under.
I love good wine but I don't love spending too much. Plus I like finding under-appreciated wines and supporting those producers.

Yes! (Or, sometimes, countries. Hello, Chile.)
XanGo scares me. I think anything that uses the words flavonids is terrifying.
Then again, I feed my kid sardines in juice format so what do I know?
Dude, remind me to tell you the eggs in a blender (with antibiotics) story. My dad made me eat that. And not through a tube. I had to taste that shit.
(Although a really hairy old vines zinfandel can usually convince me to part with my money. I'm a zin whore.)
Teppy, old vines zin lover? You absolutely need to get your hands on some Mayo. If you can't find it locally, you can have a taste when you and the boy come back out to CA.
Any 'ffistas have any experience with a one-way rental car? I may be driving down to Florida for some family stuff. Hertz seems like it might be reasonable.
Do you need to drive? Because I can't imagine one-way is cheaper than flying.
The problem is the dog. She's pretty old now and I'm worried about flying in this heat. I'm just trying to get an idea of the $$$ involved.
And its not that money is NO object, but its not a huge one since someone else is bringing me down to help out with a sick relative.
