from years ago and shots with people I don’t remember but there was some interaction brought about and we talked and maybe I sold them wine and it become such that we felt the need to either have someone take a pic of us or I or someone shot a selfie.
Years ago, and then most recently at my friend Chris’ tasting room on the Sonoma Square. Watching people walk by and if it were slow or slower than slow then I’d go next door to Kamen and chat with the people there. Wines are great, a little overpriced but I went in there for the conversations, to hear more stories.
Why did I divert from this type of writing? Returning and with one day in particular – Arista Winery, around 2015, November I think, when this group of techies from the city rode up in a bus. They had an appointment on the calendar but there were more than they communicated.
I had the group to myself, lucky me. I made do. I didn’t let myself care or get worked up, I didn’t care how much I sold. And I wound up selling I think something like four and half cases.
Then back to this story, here in the office just trying to stay alive long enough…. Driving down to Marin in a few minutes, getting something on the way out, breakfast sandwich or something. The hunger is affecting me, and not in the best way. Concentration is easily cut, and my yawns are more constant. SHIT….
