I love this wine, for several reasons; when Tom would come visit me in Wilmington we would get dinner, then go somewhere else for drinks or dessert.  If we wanted drinks we’d go to the sofa bar in downtown since they were close and had great martinis. One of the times we went Tom treated me to a glass of this wine, a vintage port. I loved it so much he bought me (a very expensive) bottle of it for Christmas 2008.  I drank a little bit here and there since then, but had just enough for Tom and I to toast with it to celebrate my moving to Raleigh and us getting back together again.

Also: My new job – being excited about my potential there, having DVR to record LOST for me since I work nights, being able to watch LOST after working all night, finding a good home for Lucky and Tama, homemade grilled (organic, free range) chicken sandwiches,  not letting frustrating situations discourage me like they used to, learning to drive around Raleigh without getting lost, watching Heroes on Netflix, and last but not least Tom – for a million reasons, but right now for knowing me so well and being so good for me.

Too Faced Shadow Insurance – this is my new favorite makeup item, a little bit keeps my eyeshadow from creasing for hours.  Thanks to Brandy for recommending it to me!

LOST – I just saw the season premiere it was so good! I  can’t wait to watch the rest of the final season.

And last by not least, my father.

Today is my Dad’s birthday.

I love him more than I can say on this little blog.

Thank you for always being there for me.

I love you so much Dad,  Happy Birthday!
