I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Speaking of happy hour, I have an important question. The place I am planning to go has some season summer cocktails I want to try, but it is also Wine Wednesday so I feel like I should have a glass of the expensive pinot while it's discounted. So cocktails before wine or the other way around?

Gimlet is a delightful name. I hope the pair become best buddies.

Hmmm, I would have the wine first, for no particular reason. Just makes sense to my palate.

One vote for wine first. I was kind of leaning towards cocktail and appetizer and then wine with dinner because that seems civilized but it also seems like my tastebuds might overwhelmed before I get to the wine. So IDK

To complicate the issue, I just noticed that they also offer a flight of 3 sangrias so maybe I will just switch to that? Hm.

Golf carts are the preferred transportation

I own four golf carts. Well, rather I have four of them for my company, but for about 8 months of the year one of them lives up at our house.

I once spent the day driving around a movie lot in a golf cart driven by George Clooney. I’ve had some cool times in my little life I am now realizing. And yeah he’s as nice as he seems. That was in 1995 or 6, whenever he was filming his terrible Batman. His assistant Amy was a good friend of mine at the time. ETA: I just went down a rabbit hole trying it figure out if Amy is still working for him or even if she’s alive. She produced a few of his films in the late 90s and was interviewed for a maagazine in early 2000s. He’s had another assistant for years (Angel) and they used to overlap a bit. Harrumph I hate when I lose touch with people and they seem to fall off the face of the earth. Another friend from that time was Wes Craven’s assistant and now she’s a super famous creator of Vampire Diaries. We uses to call her Plecie. 😝

Hee, "whenever he was filming his terrible Batman" is such a funny way to place something in time!

All four of my golf carts are currently on the Universal Studios Backlot. Living and working in LA is weird.
