My First Time

As you become an "adult" you tend to grow out of having any sort of "firsts" that mean anything to you. Well I guess I should say you start growing out of "firsts" all together. I've been having a decent amount of "firsts" lately but they are not your typical kinds of firsts. They are only "firsts" in my own estimation and if you don't agree that they are worthy of noting, then you can fuck off. See? I'm nice. I like to provide options.

*2 nights ago I attended my first real organized wine tasting outside of my own workplace. One of the prominent restaurants in this town hosted a wine tasting of a local winery. A few of my coworkers from my winery were there and they brought some friends along. It was a BLAST. Oh and the wine was DELISH! I also attended another wine tasting last night at a little bistro here in town. The wine was not AS delish but I did end up buying a bottle of the Cabernet Franc. And flirted a little bit with the restaurant owner.

*I tried a flavor other than "_______mint" gum. I usually don't go for the crazy gum flavors I gotta be honest. It's usually "spearmint" or "bubblegum" and that's where I draw the line. Well the other day I branched out and tried "mint mojito" by Orbit. Uh HELLO?! DELICIOUS! So the most amazingly perfect combination of flavors in one gum! I am now addicted and I bought the 3-pack which probably says something about my problem.

*I bought a man a drink last night. I was out after the wine tasting having dinner with some gal pals and there was a very attractive gentleman at the bar with 2 friends and I could have sworn he kept looking over at our table. In the past I would have assumed I was crazy and there was absolutely no way he was looking at our table. He was probably looking past us to the door or something. Well I have been in therapy for a while now and these thoughts have changed, quite a bit. After my friend said "oh yeah I just saw him look over here twice" I figured I was not crazy and he was looking over here for some reason. Regardless of whether he was looking at me or the other three girls I decided it warranted some action. So I told our waiter to send him another of whatever he was drinking and put it on my tab. Yes! I have become bold! When the waiter pointed out who bought it he and his friends (in a completely NON SUBTLE way I might add) turned around to see who had purchased him a drink. I waved politely and smiled and figured I was done at that. NOPE. He came over to say hello and thank you. Turns out his name is Sean and he's a pharmacist. He was very nice and even more handsome when he smiled. He found it insanely intriguing that I work for a winery and I really should have used that to more of my advantage.

*I've decided that me working for a winery could get me more ass than I even imagined. I didn't realize the impact until last night. Here's to the future...
