The first time I ordered wine in a restaurant:
The first time I ordered wine in a restaurant I was on a date with a girl who was completely too high society for me- we were a terrible match. Of course, she was very beautiful and I really enjoyed discussing literature with her so I endured the associated interests in balet and food snobbery. Anyway, we were at this she-she restaurant and the waiter comes over to get our drink order. My date ordered a Cabernet. The waiter turns to me and I freeze for a second becuase at this time I know nothing about wine. Trying to avoid embarrassment about my wine-ignorance I decided to order the same thing as my date. Unfortunately, I thought she had ordered a caberet. Good times. At least she and the waiter had fun.
