A note of comments Kyle and I drunkenly recorded on our cruise in Alaska during a dinner in the main dining room, about three drinks in, and about 45 minutes after we realized we got stood up by our dining companions, and after getting hassled for not wearing blazers, which we don’t own and didn’t bring. The notes read (pardon my bad handwriting):
- So much silverware, so little time. #CrystalCruises
- “I just ordered the SHIT out of this menu” (this was said/overheard, literally, as the sommelier came back with my Grüner Veltliner, a varietal he didn’t expect me to know. I had asked him about a particular bottle, he began to describe what a Grüner Veltliner was; I stopped him short and explained I knew the varietal, I just wanted to know about that particular year… then, feeling bad about it, I said I was “laughing with him, not at him”, which just made me feel worse).
- Louis the XIV Sauce and Baby Lettuce #Futurerapname
- “She pretty?…… Like, very pretty?” Said by the maitre’d of the restaurant, in describing one of our missing dining companions.
- “I shaved and showered for this”- Kyle, upset that the two of us are sitting at a six-top with four empty seats, wearing our finest flannel, in the middle of the ship’s dining room.
