Instant Messager, Interrupted April 18, 2007
Posted by charmingbutsingle in Blog, Random Musings on Life.trackback
Just a (paraphrased) snippet of what a fun-filled conversation with Your Lovable, Charming blogger is like:
A Loyal Reader: How is my favorite Charming tonight?
Charming: Crap! Hold on!
A Loyal Reader: I really hope you didn’t spill a hot drink on yourself …
[Five minutes pass]
Charming: Sorry, no, I didn’t. When you asked how I was doing tonight, my first thought was to respond, “I’d be better if I had a glass of wine.” And then I realized that I had to run because I’d put a bottle of wine in the freezer to quick chill … THREE HOURS AGO.
ZOMG! It’s like you’re human after all! >.
And I forget it doesn’t like some signs. What else I said was I couldn’t imagine some random reader IMing me anymore than I could imagine IMing you. Disregarding the fact that I’m usually completely, utterly, and hopelessly boring.
Nothing like a nice white-wine slushy. I’m surprised 7-11 never picked up on that one.
Somebody needs to be more prepared. But anyway, who drinks white wine? You’d better not be chilling your reds!
Hehehe… That’s happened to me before, but with beer.
that would have been beyond awful if it had exploded!
Dan — What do you mean, “Who drinks white wine?” Who DOESN’T drink white wine? I’m not talking about boring Chardonnay, I’m talking about a nice light, crisp fresh white wine — a Pinot Grigio or a Riesling. I for one crave a light, crisp white wine during the Spring and Summer. Reds are too heavy for me this time of year.
And no, dear, I’d never chill a red.
So what happened to the wine — did it freeze, or was it just refreshingly chilled?
The good news is this means you’re not an alcoholic…
I’ve frozen a bottle… they crack and make a mess. Ugh.
This is the sole reason why I love Red… Immediate gratification … no chilling required.
I drink white wine too!!! and that has sooo happened to me before.
I’m a seasonal drinker too. Reds are just too heavy when it’s hot. Have you tried a good, but cheap Franch or Spanish Rose’? Perfect summer wine. Dry, crisp & yummy!
And, yes, I have frozen many a bottle. Doh!
It amazes me how popular and completely charming you have become…you can write three words: Frozen White Wine…and you get all these people commenting on it…geez girl, if I were marketing any product- be it wine, clothing, makeup, gatorade, Nike…whatever I’d sign you to a multimillion dollar endorsement deal…:)
You’ve got your finger on the pulse of Blogger Nation, or whatever…That “it” factor people talk about, That’s you and your writing. Always reading.
Bwahahahaha. That’s so awesome. At least you didn’t open your freezer days (weeks?) later to discover the bottle still in there. Not that I’ve, you know, done that or anything…
Oh, and FYI, the wine did not freeze. It was merely VERY chilled.
And, second FYI, Maverick, you’re a doll. I should put you on my payroll.
aww man, i hope the bottle didn’t bust on ya!
hehehehehehe - I used to do that all the time when I was drinking. I used to put beer in the freezer so that it would be really cold and then it would explode because I’d forget about it.
Hi i am new and enjoyed reading your posts. Golly Gosh nearly a disaster with the wine.
[...] slid the bottle of wine into the freezer, vowing to check on it in 10 minutes. After my close call last week, I would be vigilant in my monitoring of the chilling [...]
