Wine and Espresso Meet Their Future Boss

Last week I was offered a new job at my university. It's job I want, but financially it's dicey because I'd have to give up teaching and some other sources of income. My wife and I have spent a lot of time going back and forth about the pros and cons of taking (or turning down) the job. I have to have a decision by Monday morning.

Last night we decided to take a break from all the intense discussions and go out to a nice dinner and have a nice bottle of wine to go with it (2005 Sea Smoke Southing Pinot Noir - 4.75 stars - yummy!). We had a great meal and topped it off with a couple of cups of espresso.

From there, we headed over to a local bookstore to browse a bit before heading home. There I happened to run into the person who would be my new boss if I accepted the position. The following "conversation" ensued...

My apologies, "Larry". I didn't mean to talk your ear off.
