is a good thing :)
I just ordered 60 bottles of Bonny Doon Pacific Rim Riesling, unfortunately not for myself but for work. If you're in town do stop by and see me and have a glass of Riesling.
Have spent the last few evening in the wine cellar counting bottles. It cold and dark but I like it. Our new bar manager has left a sign on the door leading out into the restaurant saying that we have to smile at our guests...
I've seen him smile once and that was when the owner of the entire hotel chain came for a drink.
Today I might be having dinner with girlfriend M, depends on if I have to work or not. I hope not since I am not in the mood to smile a strangers today.
And it's freezing and snowing today.
A final question: If you could relive your life this far, what would you do differently?

The house is warm
Our house warming party was a big hit. I really think everyone had a good time. I had such a good time that I fell asleep at 3 in the morning still in my fab party outfit. I think the last person left at 9 in the morning :) We got a lot of nice gifts and everyone liked the place. Monsieur Henri left us a special gift - Thanks :)
Sis hooked up with a friend of Mr S. And by hooking up I mean really hooking up. Apparently he stayed the night and help her do her laundry the next day. And when I spoke to her yesterday she was going over to his house for dinner...
It seems like she is getting seriously hooked on this guy.
A & M, Mr S' two sons, came and stayed for the week end. I really like them and I think they like me to.
A few days before the party I lost a tooth. A huge part of it just fell out as I was having breakfast. I got a dentist appointment the next morning and now I have a silver coloured replacement while I wait for my new porcelain tooth. I really hate going to the dentist, mine is a fairly nice guy but he still won't give me any Valium.... Wonder if I can buy it online?
Wedding update: We have finally found and booked a place for the party :) We are meeting with the wedding coordinator-woman sometime when our schedules match.
She seems a bit odd.
At work I am now doing inventory in the wine cellars. Counting wine bottles isn't all that fun but I should be ready by the end of this week.
I am also doing a sort of inventory of my personal relationships. Some have proved to be not such great friends as I thought and some turned out to be even better than I thought :) It's hard to "break up" with friends but sometimes you just have to...
Take care

Business as usual
Went with Mr S to the Wedding fare at Grand Hotel on Saturday. I never knew the getting hitched is such a huge business. It's all about tha Benjamins...
If you want you can pay people disgusting amounts of money to do the weirdest things for you only because you are getting married. How about having your initials made of ice on the buffet table? Or having confetti with your name and the name of your significant other on?
Have some woman come over and help you get dressed for 200 euros/hour?
Issues like what should you throw at the happy couple after the weeding. Rice is not good for the birds, confetti can stain the clothes and rose petals can cause an allergic reaction...
Afterwards we had a soup and a few glasses of wine at Cadier before meeting up with sis and Hannah for Yakiniku at Sakkura.
The phone woke me on Sunday, David from work called and guess who had to work on a day off. Oh yes, me! I have to be better at saying no.
Other than working I have been shopping, cleaning the apartment, planned a housewarming party on Feb 17th - am really looking forward to that.
I have also been contacted by some very old friends, the kind of old friends that I really don't consider as friends anymore. But they want to make sure that they are invited to the wedding which won't happen. I have decided to surround my self with people who I like and give me positive energy. I am to tired to do anything else!
Now, I must eat!
