Hello, hello, hello my Pinot darlings! Did you miss me? Of course you did, but do not worry because there are plenty of stories to satiate your drama hunger!  Let’s begin...

So, I was at a concert last weekend on Governor’s Island, one of my cutie patootie boy interests was performing :-), and everything started out spectacular!  I, of course, brought a bottle of my Drama Queen Pinot Grigio to share with everyone backstage and we were having such a fun time until 3 events occurred in rapid succession, leading to a serious fun sponge-ing of the night:

1. It started raining. On Governor’s Island. An outdoor venue. And my new Marc Jacobs, Peep Toe Suede Booties (tell me these aren't super cute!?) did not fare well against mother nature… lets just say suede and rain do not play well together :-(

2. After running to a tent to nurse my wounded booties, I realized 2 things: a) my backstage wristband had fallen off in the turmoil and b) I had (stupidly) not worn my water proof mascara. Like I could feel any more dejected. First my feet, then my elite access and now my face!? Arrrrrrrgh!!

3. To add to this tortuous experience, during all of this commotion, I missed my cutie’s performance. I returned (after seriously schmoooooozing the bouncer - “Hello, don’t you know who I am?”) to find an obvious downgrade attempting to hit on my boy toy. Ok, let's be honest here. Even with a face full of runny mascara, I’m still an A list. C’mon honey. To quote Cher from Clueless, “AS IF!”.
Despite the fuss, this Drama Queen knows when to pout and when to, well, be fabulous. I poured a glass of my stunning Pinot Grigio, tracked down my bestie Jordan and danced, sang, and proudly smooched my boo in the rain. 

Today’s lesson my darlings? Water proof your feet… and your face!
Oh and don’t forget to pick up your own bottle of delicious Middle Sister Wine!  Which Middle Sister are you!? I don’t want to brag… no, that’s not true, I do want to brag. Who wouldn’t want to be me? Pinot Grigio for all!

High heels and high rain clouds,
Marise – Drama Queen Extraordinaire
