Let’s Just Ignore that Friends are Supposed to be a Reflection of Oneself

This morning’s instant message conversation with Julz:

Me:  I can’t really be bothered to cook for myself.

Julz: Cooking is never an option unless someone else is doing it… you have to takeout dinner and then slowly work your way down to cereal.

Me:  Complementing a cereal dinner with a nice bottle or two of wine always makes me feel better about it.

Julz:  If you’re doing a white based cereal, then match it with a nice white wine.  If you’re going a more wholemeal cereal, then a red would do the trick.  Maybe a nice merlot.

Me:  I like your cereal wine pairing.  You could be a sommelier.

Julz:  Don’t forget the dessert wine; it’s a really a nice way to cap off a cereal meal.  For a good dessert wine that goes with all cereal types, try Nobel One.

Me:  Is it cane cut or moscato or something else?

Julz:  It has alcohol and is sweet.

Me:  Maybe you shouldn’t change careers quite yet.  Now I could use some wine though and it’s not even 10:00 AM.

Julz: Well, it’s 10:00 PM in New York.

Me: Thanks Julz, I like the way you think.

Julz: No probs.
