Selfish? Moi?

A lot of times when me and fiance go out to dinner, we might order a bottle of wine.
However, since weeknight are worknights and are to be followed by work mornings for mon bebe, I usually end up being the one drinking most of it. Which is totally fine with me. In fact I might even prefer it that way.

Thing is, there is no way I would ever go out with him to enjoy a nice dinner and some wine and then be forced not only to abstain from drinking but also watch while he gets a bit toasted. I just couldn't! It puts me in a bad mood just thinking about it. Which raises a question;

Does this make me

a) an alcoholic
b) a selfish bitch
c) all of the above

I'm not sure I'm willing to subscribe to any of the above mentioned options, although it must be said that they have all been suggested at one point or another. Not by fiance though, I might add. He knows better.

Today's plan was to walk in to town, get a coffee and go hang here at the internet cafe. This has all worked out well. Also part of the plan however was to locate the combination of keys that will produce the little mark thingy that should go over the "e" in "cafe". This has not happened. Tomorrow?
Yes, I can feel it, tomorrow is the day.

i'd say it makes you a strong, modern woman with a well-trained fiancé and that you must keep it up for the sake of the progress of womankind. odin knows i'm doing my part...

You're just doing your part to ensure that the wine is not wasted! And don't worry about the being upset if your fiance got toasted while you couldn't thing...we're women. We're allowed to have double standards, lol!

I've wondered about how to make the accent marks, too, but can only find instructions for working offline, as in Word or other word processing program. i tried to do it here in the comment box, but alas, no...

i raise a glass to your double standards! : )

I love the fact that you're all condoning my behaviour, it makes me feel better about myself and the world...
