Growing concerned about the wine situation. After this bottle, and the other bottle, there’s only ten bottles left.
Also, the item I’ve been using as a tape recorder turned out to be a remote control. Lost several days' worth of dictated notes.

Lol!
My wife ran out of wine a few days ago. I don't drink, so no worries for me.

I bought a bottle last week. I ran out, but didn’t want to tap into the strategic reserves (20+ year old stuff) for daily drinking. I didn’t open it yet as I didn’t think that my choice of meal, a Big King XL and some chicken nuggets, was an appropriate match. But tonight? It’s salad time, and the wine might even help with this toothache I’ve been dealing with. Or, if it doesn’t help, it’ll help me not to notice it and may even positively affect my insomnia.

Meijer had a 3 for $5 sale on 2 liter Diet Mountain Dew, so I’m good for a while.

What’s the glass for?

I’ve been doing a large glass of claret and half a 300mg melatonin pretty much every night, seems to be helping the insomnia problem. A full pill, and I’ll sleep through the alarm.

Yeah, just poke a big straw in the top

Don’t forget you can get alcohol delivered, unless you live in a state where you can't.

I cannot, we’re weirdly loose on some things, weirdly strict on others.

I have been out of beer for over a week. My wife went to the store on Sunday, but she couldn’t find her ID when asked for it.
I’m being a good quarantine inmate by not declaring a beer run a necessity, but it may happen.

A neighborhood Mexican joint was doing a can of beer and a shot of Mezcal for $4. Unfortunately they closed their doors last week.

I just bought some melatonin t oday; I’ve never used it before, but upon reading about the problem I thought I’d give it a try. I decided to go to Costco for the first time in months since I needed gas and sparkling water, and figured that they would have a decent price. No wine tonight, though - I found a few things in the fridge that I need to consume including the rest of the milk. I have a feeling that I’ll be pissing like a racehorse all night...

I’ve been putting off a beer run myself, because I’m not sure how annoying it would be right now (wondering if the beer store is like Costco at this point with a line out i nto the parking lot, don’t want it badly enough to spend an hour waiting to get inside ). Might give it a try this weekend, at least drive past and see whether it looks normal.

I’ve heard conflicting medical opinions, but its always seemed to work for me. Hope you can still wake up when you need to though

My state has started allowing restaurants to do to go orders for beer, wine, and cocktails which have been tempting. Unfortunately the prices the two places I checked were off-putting.
If I had a kegerator the brewery I frequented for trivia had great prices on their beers in pony kegs.

If I hadn’t gotten gas at the station at the base where I work this week I probably would’ve gotten some. I don’t want to stop at a gas station just for beer, but if I was already getting gas I probably would’ve gone in and bought some.

I’ve had weird experiences with prescription stuff, and a lot of OTC meds just make me groggy the next day. Hopefully melatonin will be a different experience.
Wake up when I need to? I’m an unemployed introvert during lockdown in a pandemic , so “needing” to get out of bed is purely optional these days... :)

Pretty much all of my local joints have been doing 20% off. One place was doing 50% off on alcohol. I paid $10 for baja enchiladas (lobster and shrimp filling). This being high quality Mexican food, not that Chipotle shit.

My wife is no wine snob , she loves the cheap Aldi wine, but she HATES Carlo Rossi!

I’m still stocked on beer, bourbon, and a little rum. It’s not even a lot, but because I reserve it for my weekends, I’ve got more than enough to last a couple months; even when this started.

I used melatonin twice, over a decade ago. Both times I had dreams where I was killing people. Never again.

I always thought that’s just what everybody dreamt about?

I did a search for the worst of the worst. I wanted to see if anybody noticed.
