I tell ya.... No mixing means no mixing... LOL!!!!!!!!!

When I was very young, around 9 or so, I began sneaking into my parent's cellar. They had this chilean wine that had these toys hanging from the bottle. Well, to me they were toys. To get the toy off, I had to take the foil off the bottle. But then here was this naked bottle..... my parents would certainly notice I did something wrong, right? So I had to get rid of the evidence, and I began drinking wine. Mind you, they were individual size bottles. The VERY little ones, thank goodness! The fact that the missing bottle would raise bigger flags never crossed my mind.

But here is the "funny" part. A few years ago, I told my mom this story. She yelled at me "so it was YOU!" Turns out that unbeknownst to me, their tumultuous marriage became even more contentious because my dad thought my mom was entertaining..... likely other men..... while he was away on bidnez trips.... no one thought about asking the little nerdy 9-year old. Had they thought of that obvious fact, all of this would have been prevented, don't you think? LOL.
