Wine Time!

Okay, so recently I've become more interested in wines. A local liquor store holds weekly wine tastings and I've enjoyed going to try them out. I've decided that instead of just putting my wine experience to waste (in other words, I forget) I'm going to start blogging what I drink, at least as much as I can remember to.

This week, it's a 2006 Sebeka Cabernet Pinotage. I had never heard of Cabernet Pinotage until I saw this bottle. I figured it had a neat cheetah on the bottle, might as well try it.

It's smooth, but not too smooth. Thick, smooth wines make me gag. But this is good. I can't really pick out many tastes yet, but I can tell you this tastes like a slightly fruity Cabernet. haha.

Wednesday

This is most of what my Wednesday consisted of: making pizza things and brownies, playing with Birdy (he got really fluffy), and watching the eclipse. Excitement!

S.A.D.

So... most people call today Valentine's Day, but those who are single tend to refer to it as Single Awareness Day. I think Valentine's Day, like every other holiday, has been so commercialized and it's sickening. And every day brings on single awareness to me because 99% everyone I know is either married or in a relationship of some sort so I always hear comments about wives or boyfriends.

But I can't resist the little guard duck...

Self-funding Campaigns

Could someone please explain to me why it seems to be such a big deal that Clinton and Romney are pushing money into their own campaigns? I can understand being upset because she is just "loaning" the money, but otherwise, I don't get it.
