An Ode To Merlot

You've got a friend in Merlot.

An Ode To Merlot
Bubbly Professor

I wake up on Sunday morning after a night of drinking far to much of you,

But that can't keep me away from your decedent taste,

I go about my day, thinking about you,

What shall I have for dinner that will finely compliment you?


Throughout the day I pray that I will be home soon,

So I can sit on my couch, watch Netflix, and drink Merlot,

There is no one else besides you,

I've cheated before on the occasional rosé,

But on a college budget, well you know, sometimes I cant help it,

Why must you be so amazing, dear Merlot?


Oh how I dread a night where I don’t have a glass,

Poured to the brim,

And when I don’t sit there and binge watch OITNB,

Its hard to have my day feel complete.


Your taste always wants me longing for more,

But in this day-and-age it's frowned upon if you drink a full bottle at once,

I know you would never judge me but it's not you, it's me,

I've done it once and I just cant do it again.


But without further a'do, my ode to you could be endless,

I'll do my best to stay faithful,

You are my one and only, dear friend,

I will see you again tomorrow after 5 p.m.,

Because, once again, it's most definitely frowned upon to bring merlot to the office.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
