Wine and Bibliographies

Last night was a gem. I have two weeks left to finish up all of my assignments for my Methods of Research course, then all of this will be a mere image in my rearviews. To my delight, MBH surprised me with a full course dinner of salmon marinated in curry sauce, brie and sourdough bread, and a nice bottle of Cloudline Pinot Noir. All of this with the understanding that we would enjoy dinner together and then move to our separate corners to get our work done. The bottle of Pinot got in the way.

After finishing dinner and the first glass, I decided that 8:00 would be a good time to get started with writing my annotated bibliography. All good, but then the first glass became the 2nd glass which then became the 3rd, and then we were staring at an empty bottle. In short, I wrote a very important assignment with 3 sheets facing the wind. I'm kind of afraid to go over what I wrote (and already sent to Elisabeth). Taking a quick glance at it this morning, I didn't see too many of MS Word's red underlines, except where it was acceptible. Hopefully a good sign.

Now we're moving straight toward another Memorial Day weekend. We're pondering another stay at Cascade Harbour Inn, on Orcas Island. I've been there twice now and both times treated me quite well, except for the 3-4 hour wait to catch a ferry on Monday morning. Maybe if we get up (uggghhh) early that morning, we can make short work of it.
