I think you're right on that (thanks for sharing that experience about the wine tasting, BTW). I would love to be the type of person to have 2-3 and call it a day. But I know deep down that if I even had a sip that night, I'd probably be on day 3 of a binge right now with divorce papers right around the corner. I think I'll stick to my panic-free mornings, showering, and being a mother to these two kids I chose to bring into the world.
