Even Superman Fears Kryptonite

Last night, Littlemissdrinkalot (LMD) dragged me out kicking and screaming because the thirst was upon her. Despite my feeble attempts at resisting, her words painted a vivid imagery of wine so delicious even the French would be swayed to the dark side of the Force.

But this post is not about me.

This post is about how I have discovered LMD’s weakness. You see, she is virtually impervious to alcohol. You could pour the contents of the entire Asia Pacific brewery down her hole and she would still beat you at Gin Rummy.

But LMD cannot drink white wine!

Last night, she drank 3/4 of a bottle because I wasn’t really feeling up to it. By the time we were almost done, she was definitely not herself. In fact, she was blubbering and had this insane wild glint in her eyes.

So what to do? I rummaged in her purse for the car keys and drove her to River Valley road where I attempted to sober her up with a bowl of hot fish soup. Then I sent her home and took a cab home myself.

Everybody has a weakness. It just takes time to discover what it is…

Being a Star Wars enthusiast, esp love this:

White wine can be a killer. I have no explanation why. But esp. the cheaper it is, the more it immediately paralyzes my brain and body. Yuck!
