My girlfriend is an editor for a fashion mag in Nashville. Every few weeks she has to go to advertiser sponsored events / party. Usually I am able to get out of going. Last month she informs me that I WILL be going with her to a wine and cheese tasting. As she had not raised to much of a stink when I begged out of many previous such gatherings, and I value life as I know it, I agreed to go.
As the evening of the event approched, she kept reminding me, giving me no " I forgot " out. I thought it funny she was so insistant I go. Turns out there was a reason. One of the sponsors was CAO. While she was inside smoozing the advertisers and sipping wine, I outside smoking free CAO Italia Gondolas, sipping Macallen 10, BSing with the bartender and watching the pretty girls walk by. Not a bad evening at all. I owe her one.
Did almost bring a tear to my eye to see all the cigars that had a puff or two taken from them that were snuffed out in the huge ash tray close by. Those poor sticks deserved better.
