How I sometimes feel without wine.

Life With Wine...

It has been a few months since I can honestly say that I have been living a life without wine.  I have been living a life WITH wine and loving every minute of it!  But, since I am in a challenge with Ms. Tanya Derkash to lose some weight, I have no choice but to either not eat food (Bizzy's suggestion at breakfast this morning), or not drink anything, exercise, and watch what I eat (my suggestion), or live off of vodka for a month and a half (I think Bizzy's other suggestion that might have gone along with her not-eating-anything suggestion).  All I know is that Curtis told me this morning that he thinks Tanya is going to win, and you know what?...that is going to make me try even harder.  Oh, I like a challenge.  I then went to breakfast at The Ramp with Sofia and a bunch of people and ordered a bacon, avocado, and cheddar omelet.  Clearly that challenge will start after breakfast.  Sofia did her best to get me to eat yogurt and fruit, but The Ramp had a very limited menu I noticed.  Sofia had clam chowder and a mimosa - the breakfast of champions.






Capote Velho.  One of my favorites.  Sold in a 1L bottle, not like those pathetic 750ml bottles everything else comes in.





Yes, ever since that night of my birthday where I was tooling around the Mission with a newly acquired sword umbrella, I have been imbibing the good stuff.  I can't say for sure how long this next teetotaling bender will last, but I have to win this challenge.  That damn Tanya went running this morning.  Not to worry though.  She was probably working off the three bottles she chugged last night anyway.  So we're even Steven.    











































I think I am in the OVERWEIGHT category according to this chart.




So here I am, writing to pass the time as I don't have fun anymore because I need to give up the good stuff because I am a beached whale and need to beat my female friend at a weight loss challenge.  There is one or two events coming up that I will have to indulge however.  I am not refraining at my barbecue, nor another friend's barbecue.  That would simply be ridiculous.  Until my next moment of boredom...
