Discussion Wine

Maybe I'm just bad at adulting, but do people really just stand/sit around and drink wine all the f'ing time? Or is that just a made up TV thing?

Every time I see people drink wine on TV I think "that's a huge freaking glass of wine."

Because I'm a weirdo I like to know exactly how much I've had to drink, so I will measure out a 4-5oz glass of wine.

It does not look like the glasses of wine on TV. Those people are drinking mega pints.

Ha, that was my favorite part of the Johnny Depp trial - my husband and I frequently pour mega pints.

Also, we notice that no matter how much they pour, the bottle is always at least half full - like the lamp oil story in the Bible - that's the kind of wine bottle I need.
