Calm Down (The French Laundry, Yountville, CA)

Oh my gosh- so I've been perusing your blog- you are seriously awesome. So hilarious... We have so much in common!
case in point:
"Good thing we didn't stay together since, currently, she's sitting in coach and I'm allergic to sections of the airplane that are considered "not first class". Being with her could've killed me!"

I hear you man- really. I do.
