    I also confess that last night at the bar, I was one of the tallest people there!!

    How tall are you?

    5'8.I know that that is relatively tall for a woman but c'mon there were maybe 10 men taller than me on Saturday! I felt like a Paul Bunyan that night!

    Try being 5'11 flat footed and walking into a bar with 4 inch heels...I so feel your pain.

    Also 5'11 and really enjoy my 6 inch heels. Love my height!!!

    I confess I hate all wines. My coworker has been trying to change my mind by having me try chocolate wine. I tried it earlier today and I still hate it.

    If you really want to learn.. perhaps go to a tasting - start with whites.. try a Riesling, Pinot Grigio, Viognier, Pinot Gris or even a Rose. Throw a Pinot Noir or a Malbec in for easy drinking reds..
    Otherwise..hate away!

    In my opinion - dessert and chocolate wines are terrible.

    What kind of drinks do you like? Are you a beer person, a mixed drink person or a straight booze person? That way we will be able to suggest something for you to try.

    Chocolate wine is god awful, BTW. I started out like many only drinking White Zin, then whites (sweet to dry). Then reds. But still my go to's are Riesling and Pinot Grigo.

    I hated wine up until last year. Now I drink it all the time. I prefer sparkling wine and mixing it with a bit of juice (modified mimosa's! Hahaha). I guess I'm in the minority, I love chocolate wine! But my favorite is blackberry wine.

    Blackberry wine (actually most fruits) is YUMMY. Chocolate should be left in bar form...LOL

    Pinot Grigio is my favorite! I used to be a waitress so I would get to try all these wines for free...I have to second that Malbec is really good too!

    Beer. My preference is stouts and porters. I don't really like hoppy beers. The smoother, the better. I have tried whites, reds, and purple wines, never liked them. It burned my throat going down. Had no flavor to me and felt like I was drinking rubbing alcohol.

    I am an Arbor Mist girl..lol. It is bubbly and tastes like a wine cooler. I also like Red Cat.

    Hmm...I'm stumped. I'm a stout and porter girl too - hence the having to lose 40+ pounds (yeah, I liked them and fried food a bit too much).

    I'm gonna suggest if you want to like wine (there's really no reason to with all the great beers in this world!) but go to a winery or specialty grocery store and ask for their best $20 bottle of Cabernet (ask for something not oaky), that's about the price where they get good and it's not stupid expensive. Cabs are rich, smooth and easy to drink, IMO. Wineries will allow you to sample before you buy so you can try them out before hand. Went to 2 this weekend myself.

    My boyfriend is a beer guy, but when I drag him to wineries, that's typically where his tastes lie. He also like Syrahs but I think they are horrible! :noway:

    I confess that my work is doing this thing called "You just got elfed" .. where someone leaves a package at your door with a sign taped to it saying that you got elfed. Then you have to go out and get *kitten* for 2 people and elf them. My first thought when I saw it .. oh Jesus****ingChrist.

    My divorce has killed Christmas for me. And every other holiday. I used to love them all. I have decorations for every single holiday. I would replace all of my home decor with holiday stuff .. everything. Holidays were always such a family thing for me and he destroyed that. I don't even enjoy them anymore. I did nothing for Halloween. Nothing for Thanksgiving. I have my tree up and stockings up .. nothing else. I have three bins of Christmas decorations in my basement. I did nothing. It's kind of sad actually.

    I confess I just read that as your work is doing something called "You just got effed." Perhaps you should change the sign to that and give an opened bottle of glue and construction paper to the next two. It would be fitting since you work at a school.

    Sorry to hear about your feelings about the Holidays. I think you are giving your ex way too much credit though. You are responsible for how you feel and how you act. He has no control over you.

    I confess that this makes me very sad... You're so sweet, and I want you to be happy!

    Take your holidays back! He doesn't control your life and you have every to enjoy yourself. Especially at this time of year... Find something Christmas-y to do and DO IT!

    I really, truly hope you can get back into the spirit and enjoy yourself. I remember being so depressed a year ago that I couldn't leave my bed, I watched the holidays pass by and I didn't even blink. I wish someone would have dragged my *kitten* out of bed and made me go Christmas shopping or something. Hope it gets better...

    *hugs*

    I confess that I know where you ladies are both coming from... been there, done that. No more. I'm done putting my life on hold over a past relationship. But aren;t we all here to support one another anyway and remind each other of that? Go forth and be Merry!!! :drinker:

    Oh and I thought that you post said "effed" at first too! :laugh:

    Its not even that I am sad that we are no longer together .. I just don't enjoy them anymore. I have to spend a ton of money that I no longer have because of the divorce. I have to give up my kid for half of the holiday. While I love giving gifts to my son and love watching him open them and we have cinnamon rolls every year .. it is over in an hour and he leaves. I am then left alone in my house, crashed out from the sugar and surrounded by a giant mess. It sucks.

    I confess that I don't really do much for Christmas. Everyone in my office was making fun of me because my decoration this year is a poinsettia plant. My parents come in to town (this year longer than normal because of where Christmas falls), we don't eat traditional food (typically we make lasagna) - we buy gifts but very limited spending. No tree, no decorations. I wouldn't say I'm Scrooge but I just don't understand the big fuss over the holidays period. People stress out about what gifts they'll buy with the limited money they have (let's face it, no one has that much these days), the roads get busier and everyone gets irritated.

    I think if I had kids I'd be more in the spirit, for them, but I've never been a big Holiday's person...
