…is my Ontario wine recommendation of the moment: a pleasant red, light but earthy, which is a neat trick. I know there are those who say that one should never drink alone, but if I followed that then I’d almost never get any drinking done.
I made plans this afternoon for a trip to San Diego, where an old roommate is getting married in July. This is apparently an expensive city to stay in at the best of times, and most of the cheap options I looked at were pretty much booked. I was chatting to the groom-to-be about this, and he said, yeah, there’s baseball games that weekend… oh, and there’s a comic book convention too. And I checked, and yes, the San Diego Comic Con is in fact that same weekend. This was, perhaps, not the best planning on the happy couple’s part.
(On top of which, it’s looking like the only people that I’ll know there will be, well, the bride and groom; there was another fellow in the wedding party who’s a friend of mine, but life’s intervening and he’s having to bow out. So, anyone who wants to come to San Diego and hang out with me mid-July would be more than welcome. There’ll be baseball games…)
On the upside, I’m apparently the champion for this round of pre-calculus bingo, which pleases me in a sick sort of way.
