FYI

In case this keeps you up at night, you can be reasonably assured that a box of wine can be kept for a whole month without going bad. Yes, friends, I have finally finished off my 3 liters of quality pinot grigio packaged in a plastic bladder this evening. As you know, I purchased said box shortly after I arrived in Maryland. It finally dribbled out the last drop. I'm actually surprised it took me that long to get through it, but that's one benefit of wine in a box: It's not good enough to keep you drinking it constantly, but it's there when you need it.

Speaking of drinking, I phoned my sister after she had apparently finished her own box of wine in one evening because I could not decipher a text she sent me. It was about the bridesmaid dress that I will have to wear for her wedding. Oh, I didn't tell you? Yeah..back to Hoosierland in June to wear a rose colored dress that sounded, as far as I could tell from my sister's slurred speech, sorta like the prom dress I wore in 1987. Rock on! Walk like an Egyptian! I'll probably come back from Indiana with a perm and a satin paisley blazer with stirrup pants. Good times, good times...

ps. Baltimore was lovely today.
