yay wine

[supercheesegirl]

I am half a glass away from the bottom of a bottle of wine. Go me. You didn't even get to hear the three voicemail messages I left for Fritz as I was trying to open the damn bottle. I bent my corkscrew, wedged the cork in the bottle, and then chipped the edge of the damn bottle trying to get the corkscrew out. Luckily none of the broken glass ended up in the wine!

I just caught most of "Shall We Dance?" on Bravo. It's a movie with Richard Gere, J.Lo, and Susan Sarandon, about ballroom dancing. Yeah, I know. So, why is it that Richard Gere = total hottie, but Susan Sarandon = hot for a chick her age? I mean, they're around the same age. Why do we not perceive Susan Sarandon as being full of the mature hottness that Richard Gere has? Why do we just perceive her as being kind of saggy? Is it a societal thing? Or have I just had too much wine? Discuss.

Need to finish packing.

I know not of what you speak. Susan Sarandon is hot as frak.

You = lesbian! Or, at least mostly lesbian! Of course you think so!

Too much wine and stupid societal hypocrisy.

But then...perhaps I'm biased, because she is still hot (just with more of a dignified edge than decades ago) and Richard Gere isn't all that interesting, except as a clothes hanger. Suits hang well on him.

I don't know, I've never been all about him, so maybe it's the wine talking, or maybe he's reminding me of Fritz tonight. A rock could probably remind me of Fritz tonight if it tried. She is definitely more dignified than in years past. Classy can be hot though too.

I think it's time to make out now.

I think it's always time!

May I express the unpopular point of view that Susan Sarandon never WAS hot in the first place. She looks like an alien who has had too many facelifts. Her eyes are too far apart.
