Mama Says Om: Delight

14 April 2006

I was hesitant about posting this pic under “delight”, lest you all think I’m some kind of lush. But there’s a point to it all, I promise.

I took the shot on Wednesday, when some family friends were here. As is traditional when we have company, we all had a glass of sherry before our cooked lunch. As you can see, the glass of sherry I had was pretty big – and I love the taste so much I can’t possibly just sip at it daintily, meaning that the effect of the alcohol forewent being absorbed by the breakfast in my belly and took up ever so slightly inebriated residence in my head.

At the same time, Lauren and I were pinging mails back and forth to each other and I let her know about my friend the sherry glass. A few more typos than usual were having to be corrected and I even ended up writing “your” instead of “you’re” … which I left in for amusement. Lauren’s reply to my final missive before lunch arrived in my inbox. “Ha, that cracked me up!” she wrote.

And therein lies my delight.
