January

Carlomagno decides to forgo alcohol for the month of January. As it turned out for her, this meant giving up a lot of socializing, as her calendar for the month was full of "drinks with..." appointments. I guess single people, especially those in certain fields, do this a lot. She apparently spends a lot of money this way. Working as a librarian with a husband, child and dog, going out after work with friends is something I virtually never do. Most of my drinking is done at home with dinner with beer or wine purchased at the grocery store, or, even better, directly from Westport winery, or Buzzard's Bay brewing.
