Seeing as yesterday was my last day of work, a new vampire diaries episode was on and we are the proud owners of the New Moon DVD, my little sister and I decided to break open a bottle of wine to celebrate.
And by break, I mean attempt to open with what could only be described as the world's smallest cork opener that obviously was purchased at the gas station during our college tenure.
The result was pieces of cork all over the kitchen floor and two very frustrated girls looking a still unopened bottle of wine. So I took matters into my own hands (bad idea) and decided that it would be a great idea to try to stab through the cork with a steak knife.
Do you know what happens when you do that?
WINE. EVERYWHERE.
It's like uncorking a bottle of champagne. Wine in my hair, wine in my eyes, even wine all over the cabinets, counters, floors and microwave.
#epicfail.
From now on we're going classy - only $9.99 and under bottles of wine...cause they have the screw-offs caps. We are not cultured enough for this cork business.
And there ya' go...one of the many reasons I do not drink wine.

This reminds me of a particularly harrowing experience I had in college when I tried to open a bottle of wine with a hangar.
