It was white, but I had no idea what <i>kind</i> of white it was&#8230; chardonnay, pinot grigio, what?&nbsp; In any case, it was delicious and my favorite of the several different varieties we tried that day.&nbsp; I didn&#8217;t end up buying a bottle, but I can&#8217;t recall why since I rarely leave there without one.&nbsp; (Their prices are fabulous&#8230; great wine for low prices, hence the name.)
</p>
<p>
I&#8217;ve been looking for it ever since whenever I go to the store. I&#8217;ve tried various grocery and specialty stores, though I didn&#8217;t try the <a href="http://bevmo.com" title="Bevmo">Bevmo</a>, the Church of Liquor. Since I didn&#8217;t know what kind of white I was looking for, I was having a hard time browsing for it.&nbsp; There&#8217;s a lot of white wine out there!
</p>
<p>
Well, just now I was perusing one of my daily stops, <a href="http://woot.com" title="woot.com">woot.com</a> and it&#8217;s sister site, <a href="http://wine.woot.com" title="wine.woot.com">wine.woot.com</a>.&nbsp; And lo, there was Saxon Brown. Yea, verily, I bought myself the weekly special on the spot. And then I stopped talking all bibley.&nbsp; I&#8217;m so excited! This was posted on the 12th and I just lucked out that it&#8217;s the weekend and they didn&#8217;t switch it yet because with Woot, once it&#8217;s gone, it&#8217;s <u>gone</u>.&nbsp; Woo hoo!
</p>
<p>
I&#8217;m not a fancy know-it-all wine person. I just know what I like and this stuff was delicious. I highly recommend the Semillion, but I&#8217;m looking forward to trying the Syrah Ros&eacute;, even though I haven&#8217;t had a blush since 1995.&nbsp; If you want some, <a href="http://wine.woot.com/" title="wine.woot.com - Saxon Brown">get it while it&#8217;s hot</a>!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://tenth-muse.com/images/uploads/pinklaptopbag.gif" border="0" alt="Mobile Edge Pink Komen Milano Bag" width="141" height="200" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px;" />I will have <a href="http://mobileedge.com/items.asp?cid=6&amp;scid=6&amp;pid=49" title="MobileEdge Komen Milano Laptop Bag">this bag</a> come hell or high water.
</p>
<p>
I&#8217;ve been on a search for a stylish laptop bag that doesn&#8217;t look like it was made to either 1) scale Everest or 2) hold Jimmy Hoffa in one of many secret zippered padded wireless media compartments.&nbsp; Some of those bags are so complicated! Straps and pockets and zippers, oh my!&nbsp; I don&#8217;t want to have to be tutored by NASA before I can store my computer.&nbsp; I do want a  <i>little</i> extra space so I can store my peripherals and maybe a notebook&#8230; paperwork, that sort of thing. But nothing that requires an allen wrench and and a secret decoder ring.
</p>
<p>
Sure, I&#8217;ve found some cute ones, but they&#8217;re all for those laptops made in Lilliput.&nbsp; WTF?&nbsp; I see all these people at Starbucks with their weensy little laptops, typing away on something that looks more like a Speak n&#8217; Spell than a PC.&nbsp; How do they type on those things? All my code would look like qoikng[wpnq-[rqgpbnpEN if I had one of those.&nbsp; Not to mention a neck that tilts at a 90 degree angle. I&#8217;m 5&#8217;10 for pete&#8217;s sake.
</p>
<p>
I bought <a href="http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=2-1/qid=1141571350/ref=sr_2_1/602-4383829-5818264?%5Fencoding=UTF8&amp;asin=B0002XR9RW" title="this pink and black cheapie job">this pink and black cheapie job</a> at Target to hold me until I found a sturdier bag, especially for travel, but it&#8217;s again, made for the 14&#8221; or smaller screens.&nbsp; I would have kept on using it because I like the style alright and I like the inside a lot, but I&#8217;ve got a 15.4&#8221; screen. It&#8217;s proving to be difficult to find a decent, cute bag.
</p>
<p>
Of course, I finally find one I really like (<a href="http://www.heyfreak.com" target="_"blank" title="mikey">mikey</a> actually picked it out &mdash; <i>&#8220;That&#8217;s SO &#8217;<a href="http://www.moxiegirls.net" target="_"blank" title="Moxie Design Studios">Moxie</a>&#8216;, babe.&#8221;</i>) that&#8217;s reasonably priced 4 days before I leave for SXSW and now I have to see if they&#8217;ll ship it quick like a bunny.&nbsp; Chop chop!<br /></p>
