We're on a roll to nowhere, J and I.
Well, maybe somewhere.. to rotound physiques and empty wallets. Together we had signed up for a wine appreciation class last friday. I realized I still prefer whites and dig camembert cheese while she took on a fancy to sweet-tasting dessert wines, nothing more. It was funny to observe the wonders a little alcohol can do in helping to loosen everyone up; from a quiet bunch at the start, the class ended in so much noisy chatter and laughter that the french instructor has trouble making himself heard. On monday, we had lunch at a sushi bar, my craving for salmon sashimi finally satiated. As usual, J proved to be entertaining company with her weirdass comments - "I feel so cold!" exclaimed the sushi on a plate that was missing its transparent cover. Make-believe conversations among the bored lobsters in the tank opposite where we sat followed soon after. For sure this term is proving to be a term different from all the rest, off-campus fun ranks so high on our list of priorities we two better start gettin some work done.
