A Bottle of Wine for the Table
A celebratory dinner conversation turns toward the shared low that can follow drinking in both happiness and sadness.
Should we get the bottle of wine too?
And the sashimi platter?
For sure the sashimi platter
This place is dope!
Okay but the bottle of wine? Sheesh. 75& that’s a lot
whatever man we’re celebrating.
I just got some extra money.
Ya bro you’re rich!
I’m feeling rich.
Okay let’s get the bottle
We’re celebrating!
Damn right.
isn’t it funny though?
What?
That the nature of the gain, is to be followed by a loss?
That the alcoholic drinks when he is both happy and sad?
In celebration and in loss?
That the end state for both is the same
At a low? Not a high?
