Ha ha ha! I just read this and can't stop giggling. Today was ROOOOOOOUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!! Too many details for me to type right now. Why? Oh, because the only way I could get through the entire day was a bottle of Spanish chardonnay. (psss, don't tell Ed, but I'm a bit "tipsy")

I think my hangover will kick in at 10:30 PM!!!!

We're going to Lefty's for dinner. Ordered spinach pie. An hour and 30 minutes. Great. Just enough time to polish off another bottle.

Hee hee.

Spinach pie? Is that spinach pizza? Oh what I wouldn't give for an Italian Beef from Portillo's right about now. My husband just called (poor guy had to work ALL Day in San Diego, actually) and he's on his way home. He's been fighting traffic for 2 hours and he just called to say he's almost home and I asked him to please stop and get me a greasy cheeseburger and Sprite. We still have NO ice in our ice maker so I've been drinking lukewarm water and I swear it's making me sicker.

You have to post when you're toasted later! It will be funny to read. When did you start drinking? I usually enjoy an afternoon glass of wine on the weekends but GOOD GOD not today. Someone please kill me now.
